I played at Phoenix Tactical's outdoor field just yesterday. Overall, the day was good. I've been there before in the past, so I knew what to expect from the field. A variety of different structures and cover throughout the field kept most matches challenging and fun. It was a bit wet, but that was to be expected.
Our host, Jay, kept everyone involved with a variety of different game types. We played force on force, capture the flag, and attack & defend.
There were quite a few instances of bad sportsmanship though. I witnessed both sides exchanging heated words and throughout the day, certain players seemed to grow more and more tense. Neither side really attempted to patch things up with the other, and as a result, it only seemed to worsen as the day progressed. Unfortunately, I think this led to a little less fun than what the day could had offered. In the end, I still enjoyed myself, but I hope that next time I play here, certain people will choose to be a little more mature about how they react to the problems that they encounter.

Had a great time as well. While I agree there seemed to be some tension between the two teams I think most of it could have been avoided with better pre-game briefings. Being on tan there was a couple times where we were playing by the boundaries given to us, but green had a different understanding. Not a big deal, but a lay out of boundaries and rules with everyone at the same time would help.
Still an awesome day with a few intense moments. Nice shooting at you green. Always fun running with you JD, Bones, PT guys.
Who has the rest of the pictures? Post them up!

I'm happy we were all still able to have a good time even though there were some misunderstandings.
