The Airsoft Underground.

Bringing Irish Airsoft to The Next Level.

We would like to announce a new venture which will bring a new level to the sport of airsoft in Ireland.

Announcing

“The Airsoft Underground”.

Simply The Airsoft Underground is a new group whose aim is to bring you airsoft where you want to play it. We are still working on a lot of finer points.

Q. Ever been heading home from work or school and seen a place you thought might be great for airsoft and never done anything about it? What can you do?
A. Contact The Airsoft Underground.
The Airsoft Underground will attempt to contact the owner of the property and attempt to strike a deal in relation to allowing a game of airsoft to be played on their property. We will survey the property to ensure it is safe and in conjunction with a promotions company will organise the games and insurance.

Q. What’s in it for you?
A. The most amazing game of airsoft you have ever played. If you bring a property to us and if we can organise the property for an airsoft game, you and 5 of your mates can play free.
Through a network of contacts, we have already sourced 4 locations around the country that will bring Irish Airsoft to the forefront. We are actively working on these locations and have one secured and should be ready to announce it as our first venue shortly.

Q. What do I do now?
A. Send us a PM with information about the site. The address, Sat Nav, a photo, contact details for the owner (if you know it) and of course your name and phone number. Any information you have on the location. We will contact you as soon as possible.

We are The Airsoft Underground.
We are first and foremost, Airsofter’s.

Have you given any consideration to the CJA 2009's requirement of Airsoft venues to be approved (licensed) by the district superintendent?

Airsoft Reloded

Or the fact that you need a change of use from the local authority and public liability insurance on land for public use?

An idea like this could do a lot of harm.

Yes we have. No venue will be used without following correct procedure and this includes making contact with all local authorities.

Good luck so, no need to shout lol.

Its a clever way to get other people to find good land for you, I have to say.

Gatling

So let me get this right ,

you want people to go out scout locations regardless of where they are

so you /company can go approach the landowners to set up a skirmish site on there land,

for some kind of super airsoft venture never seen before

so whats your experiances running airsoft sites

playing airsoft

Puding

good luck, i know how hard it is to run a normal site, let alone moving the location around between location, will be interesting to see how this works out

i know this structure has worked in the uk but of course the rules are a little different over there

This why we will need to treat each venue as a seperate entity. All home work will be done on each location. We have all our insurance in place and everthing will be done legally and above board .

You can't legally do once off airsoft events in this country though, there is an exemption clause in the national development plan 2001 for local events but airsoft isn't covered in it (I checked lol).

Masada

Interesting theory.,:)
Is the plan for it to be a one off game or to use the site permanently?

What assurances do players get that they are insured onsite? who are you using for insurance etc.

Do you have any experience running a site, or have you been involved in any previously?

I like the idea of it, but id need a bit of convincing that it would all be above board with the cops and insurance.,:)

How do you plan on getting around the change of use issue? Im just curious, mainly because there is no clause in Irish law that covers airsoft for such an event.

No answer on the planning issue mate, don't mean to badger but its a big thing. I'm sure the authorities wouldn't appreciate illegal sites opening all over the place for a couple of nights here and there.

Interesting idea if it is legal and done properly.

Not to enthused with this bein a 'my daddy has a farm and he'l let us play' kind of lark.

I , like most Irish people , think that if something looks too good to be true then it usually is too good to be true , but I really hope that I am wrong.This plan sounds great but I for one will only play on a fully legitimate and legal site.If you prove this to be the case then I and others will turn up.

deco nate

"HUN"so,its a woman,fact 1?????:D;)

We have never done things by half and we do not intend to do so now. Anybody who wishes to can view any document of permission that is required to put your minds at ease.

lochdara

dont suppose any of these sites are southeast based.

Irish airsoft and airsofters being what they are, everyone will demand papers and proof before it goes ahead, so I reckon whoever this is will have it all organised.

Sounds like it could be great if its done properly, so I hope whoever it is pulls it off.

Its probably Airsoft Reloaded in disguise, and they're arguing with themselves to throw us off the scent - Dunno bout you lot, but Brian always calls me Hun

Best of luck with it, whoever it is.

I'm gonna go with G-Tac or a combination of a certain x-site owner and a certain shop owner (hearing stuff through the grape vine).

Anyone know where that saying came from?

It dates back to medieval times in the 1100's when electricty supplies were irregular, and French peasants, who couldn't afford their own generators, used to burn the grapevines after the grapes had been harvested to provide heat-generated electricty to enable them to power their computers and run whichever chat client was their preferred method of communication.

Or maybe it was this.

Hi lochdara yes we have a site in mind in the south east,
in the process of checking things about it at the moment but if you know of a venue feel free to give us a pm;)

Damo 2k9

Ill take a wild guess and say it's Bren ? He Always leaves smileys like that at the end of his posts :P
What I think would be good if this got off the ground, if someone submits a piece of land they wanna play on, there could be a poll every week of which site people want to play on, rather then having only a few people turn up, see how much interest there is in each piece of land and pick the one with most interest.
