Popular Airsoft Magazine / All Systems Go for Rapier 01 World Airsoft Challange and Kami Wars!
It’s all systems go for us for the first World Airsoft Tournament and Asia’s International Airsoft Event Gathering. Rapier 01: World Airsoft Challenge and the Kami Wars: Conflict Begins have been given permission to start preparations for two of the biggest airsoft events this year. The events shall be held at the Clark Freeport Zone in the Philippines from the 27th until the 30th of November 2009.
There is high anticipation for these events in the Philippines since it will be the first time for the country to hold international events for airsoft ever since Airsoft has been given legal credence through the IRR issued by the Philippine National Police. Now, it’s time for them to show what the country has in store for players from around the world.
RAPIER 01: WORLD AIRSOFT CHALLENGE
There are already initial countries with teams, such as those from the United Kingdom, United States, and the Philippines already preparing for the first World Airsoft Tournament. These teams have gone through a selection process through the Thunderstrike (UK), Enduro Challenge US, and Ratratan (PH). Other tournament organisers and teams from around the world are also invited to send their representatives which are limited to three (3) teams from each country.
The challenges for these teams are combination of force-on-force and combat missions for two days. Only one team shall emerge the world champion.
We are expecting teams from South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan. Countries from Europe and South East Asia will also be sending their own teams too.
