In late 2007, Lawrence Manuel, Bryan Campos, and Gary Parrott decided to form a competitive team to play paintball tournaments. Undecided at the time, they finally named the team , "Los Angeles Poidogs". We practice regulary @ fields such as SCVillage (Corona, CA) and Hollywood Sports (Bellflower, CA).

Our core team is comprised of members from both Southern California and Hawaii. Though we entered the tournament circuit in pump (Old School Challenge), our paintball Ohana("family") comprises of both pump and semi players. Our semi division is currently in training and will soon be introduced to the world during the 2008 Spyder Cup. Be on the lookout for our team as we diligently work to improve our accuracy and gameplay. Aloha!

We did fairly well at OSC 2008 Event #4 (Hollywood Sports Park). We met a lot of members from other teams and had a lot of fun playing that day. The OSC Family was quite friendly outside of being a competitive force to contend with inside of the net. There were mistakes made and lessons learned as we will certainly improve our game to prepare for the next tournament coming in October and November.

PoiDogs will be competing in Honolulu, Hawaii. Our Hawaii members will be registering to play the OSC Series @ Hawaii All-Star Paintball Park hosted by Brandon Cayetano. I'll be practicing with some of our Hawaii members at Hawaii All-Star Paintball Park on August 3, 2008 (Sunday). Come on down and join us if you're in the neighborhood.

The main event that we'll be preparing for will be in November. It's the NPPL competition held in San Diego. We are looking for more players to play this 5-men tourney. If you are interested please contact us ASAP as we'll require mandatory practices prior to this event.
