Neil "Mad" Harris
Our esteemed leader, and probably the most to blame for the Syrians' continued existence. Having been with Syrians for more than eight years now, Neil is not only one of our most experienced players, but arguably our most versatile as well. He's quite happy with any position on the field, whether it be leading a charge down the tape line, or supplying covering fire from the back-line, while co-ordinating the team's efforts.
Also a rabid marker collector. He can field anything from a bolt-action KP rifle to two different types of Tipmann fully automatics, from a brace of PGP's to a brace of AFT semi-automatic pistols or one of three different Auto-Cockers. And often does. Like I said, "Mad" Harris.

Dirk Koornneef
Another long time member of the team. A solid player, whose voice on the field can only be described as deafening. Unfortunately an illness has kept him off the field for sometime. He's slowly easing his way back into the game, and we look forward to the time when he can fully rejoin the team.

Dave Armstrong
Renowned (nay, worshipped) for his lightning speed, and devastating front-line plays.
He displayed his dedication to the Syrians by turning down numerous offers from professional teams around the world ("Sorry Bob, Renick, prior commitments, you know how it is..." :), and currently trying to avoid phone calls from the many companies wanting to offer him sponsorship deals ("Tom, old son, I just don't have the space to put another AutoMag, and for Christ sake, can you tell R.P.Scherer to stop sending me all this paint!" :)
(Err, maybe someone else should do my write-up next time... :-)

Kelvin Green
A silent, cautious, and above all deadly. player. Here's a man who takes pride in his reputation for shooting people in the back. No matter where you are on the field, no matter which way you're facing, you can pretty much guarantee that Kelvin's behind you, taking a bead on you back.

Patrick "Paddy" Decamillo
The backup man from hell! Solid, dependable, and quite willing to lay down the paint so the team can make its move. A call to Paddy for covering fire results in a wall of paint that a small train could advance behind!

Tim Coates
Tim's inconsistent playing style makes him much feared within the Syrians. He's either charging madly down the field for a quick flag pull, or sneaking quietly though the bush for a better shot. You never know which!

James "Gonzo" Lewis
The youngest (but no longer with newest) member of the team, and he definitely has too much energy!
He's got a reputation for his speed and willingness to get in on the action. If there's a paint going down in a big way, he'll be right in the middle of it (probably waiting for the rest of the team to catch up).

Lance "Jester" Haycock
One of the newer members of the team, and an addition we are justifiably proud of. His speed and seemingly magical ability to make good use of even the smallest cover is astounding.

Jason McKay
Another of our newer members, with a great versatility on the field: Careful & cautious or fast & aggressive, whichever is needed at the time.

Michiko "Micky" Gunn
Wife of Mike (See next entry) and mother of Cameron. "Deceptively harmless" is the catch phrase here, she looks meek and mild, but when put in the middle of the action she bites!

Mike Gunn
Husband of Micky (See previous entry) and father of Cameron. Our most experienced member, having played for quite a number of years before joining the Syrians. A thinking player, (if the opposition has left an opening he will make use of it in some shape, way, or form!), but definitely capable of hitting 'em hard when in the front-line.

Karl Johnson
A country boy at heart, and a avid hunter. When on the field he disappears into the bush/forest/anything green, only to appear sometime later in a position very inconvenient to the opposition.
The only unfortunate side to all this is he's moved back to Colville to wallow in the country life. Come back ya' bastard, we need you on the field!
