Most of the games in the NEOhio area are going to be roughly 45 minutes away from you. The only exception I know of that is Walsh Farms which will be 15-20 minutes from the UA campus itself. RTA has a field in Cleveland, and 2 in the Youngstown area, one being Battelfront and the other being an all CQB facility.
Hope to see you on northern soil after you move up. And if you need anybody to show you around the area send me a PM. I've lived in the AKrowdy my whole life.

FRESH MEAT!!!
But yeah, as Sidd said, I'm up here. Don't play much anymore, but once I find employment, expect me on the field a lot more.

Battlefront has had weekly games there on tuesdays for the past month or so. Im not sure how long they will last once school starts, but its pretty close to Uakron.

From my experience, Walsh Farms and BTT will be your best and closest places to play consistently. Battlefront is a little further away, but worth the drive. I'm in the area as well, and I'd love to see more action happening (but then again, who wouldn't?).

Ive got me + 7-10 people that are all regulars, the only thing is that some of weve got some pretty little kids (2 12 yr olds.) Theyre tough as my KWA but I know some guys wouldnt like that, which I dont blame anyone for, its somewhat annoying occasionally. Were in NE Ohio though, about 30 minutes from Akron. Anyone whsoe close enough is welcome to play, just gotta pm me. ;)

Hey all, this is my first actual post on here so be gentle :-P
I go to College up at Malone and am on an airsoft/paintball team. Im orginally from Columbiana, Ohio which is about 15 minutes away from Youngstown. I know around 30 people personally that play and would be willing to travel between Youngstown and Canton to play. I have an airsoft course at my house thats made up of about 2 acres of wooded land, We also play in an abandoned school in New Waterford. If anyone wants to talk to set up a tournament or just a random play feel free to IM me at Shadersnake45 or send an email to helterskelter208@aol.com . My cell is also 330-727-7922, Feel free to call at anytime, however if you call at 3 am be prepared to get cursed out -haha. I enjoy my sleep!

I go to UA, live mostly in Akron but home is actually Litchfield (medina county).
I was last into airsoft about 2 years ago, but sold everything.
I'm back now! I swear that when I was playing there wasn't a single event anywhere near me, but now it seems it's pretty good up here.
I ordered a CYMA M14 (if you told me when I was last playing that CYMA would have a good AEG for $110, I would never have believed you) and a few mags and I'm looking forward to some real playing again.

King0, please check the thread dates before posting. This thread has been dead for seven months.
I know it's accepted on other threads, but necroposting is frowned upon around here, unless you have VERY GOOD, relevant information to bring to the thread.
Edit: No worries, we all miss it sometimes. :D
