Miss Catshack 2013 - She's Got MY Vote

CONTEST TIME!!!

Okay, I'm not holding the contest but a great friend of mine is in it and she needs your help. The contestant appointed Miss Catshack becomes a representative of female paintballers everywhere as well as a spokesmodel of sort for The Catshack Reports.

For those of you not in the know, The Catshack Reports is a paintball publication meant to spread the sport of paintball around the world and to provide tips and lessons to players everywhere. The winner of the Miss Catshack 2013 contest will receive:

• 1 Houston Heat team jersey, signed by the entire team
• Dead Man's Gear apparel
• One Valken product (to be specified)
• One BuyPBL product (also to be specified)
• One regulator from Immortal Air
• AND MORE!!! (to be announced as well).

Miss Catshack will (upon accepting her title) represent The Catshack Reports Paintball News by assisting with future Catshack promotions AND representing women in paintball throughout the year.

It's a pretty big deal in the paintball community to be named Miss Catshack and this year my good friend, mentor and she was also an outstanding medic who kept me in the fight back in my very first paintball game in April.

Sabria McLaughlin:

This brunette beauty hails from the wholesome heartland of Pennsylvania but she calls southern Ontario her second home.

Her paintball tag is "Valkyrie" and although this lovely lady may not have a pair of wings, but she's one hell of a warrior. To put you in mind of her paintballing mindset, this photo was taken just before she began darting  out from cover, running through walls of flying paint as a medic (see the medic patch on her left arm) to keep our shooters in the fight whenever they took a hit. Valkyries may be the choosers of the slain in Norse mythology but she sure as hell wasn't going to let our boys get 'chosen' out on the field.

When I met her she had just finished a manic medic moment and I'd been lit up all across my right arm and leg. She had me cleaned up and back in the fight and from that point on I decided that wherever Valkyrie went, I'd be doing my best to head up the advance because honestly? She was the only medic doing their job that day from our team. What's the old saying? Behind every good woman is a bunch of men trying to keep up? ;)

So now we know the story of how the Valkyire-Noob connection came to be, but what about the tale of Valkyrie? If there was a "Winged Warrior Rises" movie made, how would the saga begin?
