Making some much heralded noise in the city of Olongapo and Subic Bay Freeport Zone in the Philippines, the ragtag crew of Team RAGE (Recreational Airsoft Gapo Extreme) had accumulated considerably for the past three years.

Founded on the 11th of September 2006 by three hardcore war game enthusiasts namely Erik Jahnke aka Onslaught, former president of Team Unleashed (A prominent but now defunct paintball team in Olongapo City); Bhoy Roy aka LT, also a former member of Team Unleashed and of SBAC (Subic Bay Airsoft Club) and Marc Villanueva aka Cram, a former member of Acolytes Spec Ops (an ACM team from Muntinlupa City) and also SBAC. The three founders of Team RAGE share the same passion for war games, either through paintball or airsoft.

Team RAGE started off with 14 members enjoying the action of the sport while competing with each other, now the roster is over 100 members practicing sportsmanship and friendly competition making it a prominent organization not only in its hometown but in different areas as well. Team RAGE are always invited to participate in Independence and Fiesta Day parades in the city of Olongapo.

On the 24th and 25th of November 2006, Team RAGE hosted an event in part of the celebration of the 14th anniversary of Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA). Called "The 1st Administrator's Cup: Subic Siege", RAGE invited other airsoft teams from different cities and provinces. The 2-day event was highlighted by the visitors and participants competing on various airsoft war game scenarios, and fellowship and relaxation after the games at Subic and Olongapo's nightlife.

Contributed to the prominence of Team RAGE was winning the "Best Squad of the Year" Award at Megaball 2007 held at Mimosa, Clark Field Pampanga participated by over 30 airsoft teams from different cities and provinces of the country. It was repeated at Megaball 2008 held also at the same location and this time the team not only bagged the Best Squad Award but also the Largest Contingent and Loyalty Awards plus Champions of Tug-of-War competition.

Now evolved with already seven squads with over 100 members, Team RAGE welcomes everyone with the same passion and interest for the sport from Olongapo-Zambales area to be part of the team. BOOYAH!
