EVENT PAINT ONLY. We will have paint available for special event pricing of $40/case. Same paint = level playing field.
Reffing:
----- D1 PSP team
CHATTANOOGA CEP will provide reffing. Minor League Paintball chose to do this to provide the most qualified and experienced refs in the Southeast. Where other series lack quality and consistent reffing, Minor League Paintball has stepped up to the plate.
Player Misconduct:
Any judge on the field, as well as the Ultimate Judge can assess Player misconduct penalties. Any action deemed to be player misconduct could result in a 1 for 1 penalty, 2 for 1 penalty, suspension, and or ejection. Actions deemed inappropriate can include swearing, hostile physical contact between individuals, throwing equipment, or just being a poor sport and making the event less fun for other players (this includes counter-coaching, etc)
Some Clothing Rules:
All players must wear long pants and a long-sleeve jersey type shirt. Player clothing may not have excessive holes, rips, tears, or anything else that would inhibit a Referee’s ability to monitor a player.
Metal and ceramic spikes and cleats are not allowed at any Minor League Paintball event for 2011. Track spikes are acceptable as long as the spikes have been removed. This is done to ensure the safety of players, staff, and the fields.
Color rules will follow current PSP color restrictions. (Yellow for 2011)
Spectators:
Spectators are encouraged to come out and support their team. All that we ask is that fans respect the officiating staff as well as all of the players at the event. Counter-coaching will not be allowed by any player or spectator.

Downtown Chattanooga offers a variety of options to serve as lodging accommodations.
