The locals make up the field ref staff at Maui Paintball and a group of them throughout the weekend took turns either playing or reffing throughout the weekend. Solstice Law, being led by head referee Dave Patton, were back to add their magic to another Legends event. It is hard to find a more motivated and positive ref staff in the business and when you mixed in the local refs/players it was a complete win for all the ballers that showed up to enjoy this game. Solstice Law has become one of the most sought after ref staff in scenario paintball due to their safety consciousness, their motivation and their excitement about the game. The local ref/players know the game, know the field, know the players and they love everything. The combination of these refs made for an amazing weekend for each and every player. Photographers are another group of people that add a special twist to each and every game by putting their bodies and equipment on the line and making us look like heroes. In attendance for Hawaiian Legend was a photographer that was wearing more than one hat throughout the weekend. Jessica Cortez, known as the field “Auntie”, is the Jill of all trades. She was witnessed photographing players and reffing at times but she also helps the kids stay organized and safe, and she keeps all the markers working. She definitely provides a special twist to Hawaiian Legend. A truly special thanks goes out to the refs and photographers that make our games so amazing and to the ones that made Hawaiian Legend II an incredible event. A huge thank you to DJ Honu Fox, Lani Fox and CPX Events for providing another great opportunity for us to experience the game we love and thank you to Clint Hansen and Maui Paintball for providing a unique and exquisite field to host this experience. Congratulations to Ryan Sexton and the Blue team for a well fought victory and we hope to see everyone back for Hawaiian Legend III. www.paintball.media 0123
