Hello Everyone!
Before I get into anything, let me give you guys some background on me and my goals. My names Mike McCleary and I was one of the founder’s of an old team, Vancouver Tactical Airsoft (VTA).We played mostly up at ABT and went to a few big games like Steel Talon and Ivan Crossing. If the name even sounds remotely familiar, you probably remember the cocky punk teenagers who thought they could take on the world with their mom’s money. No doubt that attitude made a lot of bad relationships, with a lot of teams, and people…. But at the end of it all, we ended with some great friends. Really cool people who ended up becoming amazing players. But all good things come to an end. The team spit up because ABT shut down and most of the team members joined the Marine Corps or the Army and we all got the hell out of dodge. Every now and then a couple of us would come back on leave and play game or two. I’m a Marine and over in Afghanistan right now, ready to get out and come back to the real world next spring. I’m super excited to start playing again. Most of the other guys are getting out soon after that. We are probably not going to stick with the old team name and go with something short and simple but we haven’t really decided. One of my main goals is to link up with other groups maybe at big games and complete squad based missions and what not. Also going to try to set up some small skirmishes out in Vancouver and meet some new teams and just play some damn airsoft. It’s been way to long and It’s really hard coming back to this site four years down the road and looking at how much the web site has changed, how much the gear has changed. Shoot, just how the whole sport has changed, and still having to wait a little bit longer to play. We are not those punk kids anymore and hope I to see you down range in the future.
Thanks for your time!
