We've had plenty of private skirms with other teams, I'm not saying it's a bad idea. I'm not saying it doesn't sound fun. I'm just explaining the position that lots of the folks in this community have against "tournament style" Airsoft. When you say our record is 15-2 or whatever, it sounds like something a tournament paintball team would say.
If a team brags, "We're undefeated," that means nothing to me. As far as I know it's because they shrugged off hits. It's not a cut and dry sport where the score is obvious.
On the other hand, if a teams tells me they went to OP Irene or some other such major event and captured an objective that helped their side achieve victory, then they'll have my respect. Objectives are victories in mil-sim.
