Heyjay, in an ideal world 17 shouldn't be a big issue, and it may not be to you, but to the law it definitely is. You should probably drop in to your local Garda station and find out what paperwork you need. They're very helpful with this stuff.
At the very least, Stena Line will not let you on the ferry without written authorisation from a parent or guardian. IIRC, whoever agrees to take you in their car is legally responsible for you "in loco parentis", whether either of you like it or not.
That's what I've used for previous events to bring a few 16 / 17 year olds to events. Obviously the bit about face protection is optional depending on what the parents allow.Casper wrote:I, *parents full name here*, hereby grant permission for my child: *HeyJay14s Full name here*, to travel to and attend the airsoft game event called "Phoenix Rising 3" at Sennybridge Army Training Estate in South Wales; between the dates of 3rd and 7th April 2009.
I grant permission for my child to travel within the UK and ROI with *guardians name here* between the above mentioned dates.
I also aknowledge that *guardians name here* will be the guardian for my child during the above mentioned duration and I grant him permission to be so.
I also aknowledge the fact that *guardians name here* will be unable to watch over my child when the airsoft gaming is in play and during such time the staff running the event will be legally responsible for my childs safety and welfare.
Additionally, I allow my child to wear only eye-protection as opposed to full-face protection and I am aware of the risk of injury / dental damage involved.

My phone number is: *parents mobile number here*
Game Location:
Celieni Village, SENTA, Sennybridge, Powys, Wales.

If the persons parents are seperated, it's usually wise to get a copy from both.
If the permission obtained is verbal instead of written & signed, then it can be later denied by the parents in court in the event of a worst case scenario.
If permission isn't obtained, then technically that's abduction, in UK law at any rate. I'd imagine Irish law is rather similar.
Acting as a legal guardian for a minor isn't a responsibility to take lightly. More so if you don't know them.[DM]-TheDOC- wrote: »Your Casper the friendly ghost you boon
So did I! I nearly died! I thought someone had paid for a place for me or something!Ghostwarrior wrote: »ok,
Fixed that... for some reason i thought Casper was ASI casper (Duh)
Unfortunately, due to the fact that there's another event on in NI on the same weekend, none of the ASI guys will be there. Was really wanting to go to this and was still considering going, even when everyone up here bailed for the NI event, but I don't really have the funds to go to be honest. Just got too many upcoming events that need paid for.
It'll be the first of the TA Events games I've missed, but I think twice in a row at Sennybridge is enough for me anyway, a 3rd time would just be overkill.

The big issue here was never heyjay's level of maturity (there doesn't seem to be a problem with that), or even the paperwork for the event itself. It was always about the transport of an unrelated minor across an international border. On his 18th birthday he can travel as an adult on his own responsibility, the day before that is a legal minefield. It's a pity, but unless someone comes up with a solution, it looks like he's stuck.
Have a great day at Ballykinlar. When my Event Calendar goes live (soon) it'll be a little easier to avoid those pesky scheduling conflicts
Stirling are organising a big game in CDV in the autumn, hope to see you at that one. And if Heyjay's 18 by then, we hope to see him there too.0 -

Well i have no problem getting written permission off both parents if requested, anyway ill be going to the training and the milsim in HRTA so hopefully ill meet some of you face to face and maybe someone will be more comfortable offering me a lift after meeting me....:)
if i was driving id bring you
I'll inform you of training schedules etc, and sure come along your more then welcome. I will not be posting publicly the training times, not to be elitist, but merely we are getting great help from paul and warehouse team, to use their facilities to prepare ourselves for a big overseas event. And I wouldnt like to see their generosity exploited by people looking for a free game.0 -

Are the training sessions open to opposing forces? I ask since I think there's about only me on the Armenian force in Dublin. I can't quite well train by myself. Well .... I find myself scoping out ways to breach my office, the toilets, the local shops, my car, etc. constantly thanks to the CRW weekend held by Stirling the other week, but there's only so far you can take that before you get arrested and/or sectioned :pac:0 -

Will you not need some tango's to train with, it some times helps, if the target shoot's back at you, the stray dogs would be a good call, and some of the young guns:D0 -

I'd be in full agreement. A couple of red bull or pro plus throughout a non-stop event do no harm and even plenty of benefit, but if you intend to red-bull your way through the entire event or eat nothing but chocolate and sweets and coke, then you'll end up regretting it and unable to last the distance.
There's plenty here that were at PR2 that can vouch for how difficult it is.
Getting through the event and enjoying it don't always go hand in hand.
Wormbyte was 40 yesterday btw, in case any of you want to pop over to the TA Events forums and wish him well.0 -
