We are trying out
a new idea here at AirsoftArizona... if you are at least 16 years
old and wish to join AirsoftArizona and play in AA games without a
parent being present, you can now try for sponsorship.
A sponsor must be an AirsoftArizona member for at LEAST one year
and have gone to at least 5 games. He/she must also be at least 25
years old and have permission from AirsoftArizona to sponsor
someone.
A sponsor can only sponsor ONE person for the year. All
sponsorships end on December 31st and (if needs be) must be
'renewed' with the sponsor player at the beginning of the year along
with the necessary membership fee.
A sponsor can terminate his sponsorship at any time for whatever
reason he/she sees fit.
The potential sponsor MUST meet with the sponsoree's parents IN
PERSON on a day OTHER than when an airsoft game is being held. The
sponsor MUST have at least one of the parents sign a paper stating
that he (the sponsor) "will be 100% responsible for their son or
daughter and their safety during any AirsoftArizona events they
attend for the remainder of the year."
Sponsoree's must be at least 16 years old and abide by all the
rules set forth by AirsoftArizona for those under the age of 18.
The sponsoree will be considered a full AirsoftArizona member,
but can ONLY particiapte when his sponsor is present. He receives
all the benefits, responsibilities, etc... of a full member
(including paying the yearly membership fee). BUT, for example, if
his sponsor has to go home early from a game, the sponosoree must
leave as well.
Full-Auto and our other airsoft sponsors retain the right to
refuse to sell to anyone under the age of 18 regardless of their
status in the AirsoftArizona organization.
Once a sponsoree arranges for a sponsor, they may fill out the
membership application.
Essentially, this sponsor program allows responsible, veteran
players to act as proxy for a minor's parents.
ALL the other rules and regulations remain unchanged.
