MONTCLAIR STATE UNIVERSITY RED HAWKS PAINTBALL WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2005. IT WAS ORIGINALLY ONLY A PAINTBALL CLUB ON CAMPUS. SHORTLY AFTER THE CLUBS CREATION A SPEEDBALL TEAM EMERGED. THE SPEEDBALL TEAM BEGAN RECRUITING ANY AND ALL PEOPLE INTERESTED IN PLAYING PAINTBALL. BY THE YEAR 2007 WHAT WAS ONCE A CLUB OF ONLY A COUPLE SPEEDBALLERS NOW CONTAINED A MIX OF SPEEDBALLERS AND SCENARIO PLAYERS. IN EARLY 2007 A SCENARIO TEAM WAS BORN AND QUICKLY STARTED TO GROW. SINCE THEN THE TEAM HAS GROWN FROM A MERE SIX TO THIRTY ACTIVE PLAYERS. IN THE FUTURE IT IS EXPECTED THAT MONTCLAIR’S PAINTBALL PROGRAM WILL GROW AND CONTINUE TO LEAD THE WAY FOR PAINTBALL PROGRAMS ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES.
