For UK-based airsoft players who believe in the power of organisation, they have one right now under the United Kingdom Airsoft Players Union (UKAPU) and working hard to ensure that their rights are protected and expanded; airsoft is promoted; and the encourage cooperation and camaraderie amongst members.

As part of their activities, the UKAPU will be holding their Annual General Meeting where members get to meet other members, voice their concerns, offer suggestions, and overall set the tone and direction of what UKAPU will take for 2017. Apart from that, they also get to play in a private game for UKAPU members at the StrikeForce CQB.

If interested, and which we highly recommend, interested airsoft players in the UK who are not yet members can go to their website and sign-up. After signing up, they can then join in the annual AGM so their voices can be heard and this will take place on Saturday, the 19th of November 2016, from 0900H to 1600H.

More information of the event on Facebook and below the poster is the official press release:

UKAPU Annual General Meeting at StrikeForce CQB

United Kingdom: Matthew Furey-King, Chairman of United Kingdom Airsoft Players Union (UKAPU) and Vice-Chairman David Weston, today announced that UKAPU will host a private game open to all UKAPU members and the Annual General Meeting (AGM) at StrikeForce CQB.

The AGM will be an opportunity for all UKAPU members to raise subjects for the agenda, elect committee members, and shape the future of UKAPU for airsoft in the UK.

“The UKAPU AGM is the event we hold every year, at which we sit own with members and talk about the future direction of the association, and airsoft,” explained Chairman Matthew Furey-King “Many airsoft associations have come and gone but UKAPU has been the only one to hold an AGM every single year. That’s something I’m very proud of. It’s a very important part of maintaining transparency and democracy. It’s one of the reasons we are able to call ourselves representatives. “

“All committee positions are open for election, and anyone can raise a discussion point. We actually have some positions with no nominated candidates, so email our secretary if you are interested in helping us push UKAPU forward. This year we decided to combine the AGM with a private members’ day at StrikeForce CQB site in Gloucester. All UK airsoft players are welcome to join UKAPU for free on our website. We’ll hold the AGM in the safe zone. It’s looking like a really friendly fun game is shaping up, with a few airsoft celebrities coming too. I look forward to seeing you there.”

Any and all members of UKAPU can add an amendment to the AGM and put themselves forward to become a member of the committee, please submit any questions to [email protected].

StrikeForce CQB, hosts of the private game, are located at:

Morelands Trading Estate
Bristol Road
