I was thinking on what to post today and I thought something to do with playing the snake. After pondering what makes a good snake player for awhile I came to a conclusion, a great snake player has a great team mate behind him. Usually it comes down to the person behind you calling your shots. When your team mate calls D1 you should know exactly where you need to be. Team communication on the paintball field is ESSENTIAL for success, every team is different so I can't really give tips or pointers except one...the best teams often have some of the best on field communication! So in practice take time to work on it, there are many drills you could make up to work on it, so run them!

There are a simple tips I will give tomorrow on playing the snake, but for now just chew on the communication end of things.

I'm a snake corner player myself and yes i relay that type of information to the player in front of me but... it also takes good communication from the other side of the field sometimes for me to find out information about that side of the field
