Father/Son Paintball Tournament

The weekend of Eric's business card ceremony just happened to be the same weekend as the Father/Son Paintball Tournament! For anyone who knows Eric, this has been his one and only hobby for the past year. He passed on his paintball love to his dad, so of course they had to play in the tournament. 
Father and Son!
He is ready to shoot YOU.
 The tournament consisted of two divisions with 8 teams each. Each game was 2 on 2 and lasted 2 minutes. You'd think this would fly by, but we were there for HOURS watching paintball. I entertained myself by photographing the guys, but I wasn't allowed on the field so all my pics were through a net. And the more paint that got on the net, the more blurry my pics got (so some of these are from the Jaegers Facebook page). 
With the start of each game, all guns had to be touching the dead box.
Eric is the camo pants and his dad is the black and blue pants. They'd get more points for grabbing the flag and taking it to the other team's dead box. Their strategy was mainly Eric's dad getting the flag while Eric shot at the other team to distract. 
The boys in action!
 They started off great by winning 4 games in a row!! Eric's mom and I kept hearing people say "Who's Team Walker?!" as they dominated the other teams.
Coming off the field. Look how much clearer these pics are!
 They finished in 3rd place in their division! It was a great finish for their first tournament ever. The top 2 teams in each division went into the finals so they were SOOOOO close. Next year, guys!
