“There are plenty of teams in every sport that have great players and
never win titles. Most of the time, those players aren't willing to
sacrifice for the greater good of the team. The funny thing is, in
the end, their unwillingness to sacrifice only makes individual
goals more difficult to achieve. One thing I believe to the fullest
is that if you think and achieve as a team, the individual accolades
will take care of themselves. Talent wins games, but teamwork and
intelligence win championships."

From 2008 and beyond, DESTINY will be an all-female paintball team. Destiny is based out of Florida.
OBJECTIVE: To show that females can play paintball and COMPETE and to encourage more women to play in both the tournament scene and in woodsball/scenario, as well. To bring in, inspire, and mentor more women to give paintball a chance.
This team will be a roster of health-conscious and athletic women who have discipline, good morals, behave positively, will be alcohol-free and drug-free, and who will also be good examples for both women and the younger generation. Our youngest member (Brittany Wagoner) is 15 years old.
DESTINY ALL-FEMALE will play the entire series as a D2 team in the NPPL. We will also play a couple in the CFOA, one SPPL, a couple of big games and scenarios, and some pump events. We hope to go overseas to at least one, if not two, Millennium Series events.
HISTORY:
In 2007, DESTINY NPPL took 4th place at the NPPL Tampa Super 7. DESTINY finished up in 19th place out of 102 Division 2 teams in the NPPL in 2007.
DESTINY finished up in 5th place in the XPSL Overall Series Standings.
In 2006, Destiny won the 2006 San Diego Super 7 D2 Championship!!! Destiny finished up in 2nd place overall out of 102 Division 2 teams.
Previous to this year, we were the only co-ed team to win a national (and internationally known) event with a mixed roster of both genders. We competed in a professional paintball league (NPPL). In 2005, we were in 7th Place out of the 140 teams that have competed in DII. We finished up in 2006 in 2nd place overall out of the 102 teams that competed in the NPPL.
