Dave, thanks for everything....you are a class individual, and it was a pleasure hosting you guys and watching your teams succeed.

It was a great run and forged many unforgettable memories. Hopefully we can create some new ones in 2012.
Thanks go out to the McDonald and Carey families for all the laughs and amazing venues to play this crazy game.
Let me know if there's anything I can do for ya at any time.

Big Rob, I know you had big plans and a great program. You are also a class act.....email me and I will try and hook you guys up for Vegas.

Lol, it will come back.....there has been 18 economic recessions since the 1930's and there will be many more. Canada will only grow from here, and paintball will recover.

The BCPPL/CPPL has always cared about BC paintball more than you ever will, setting up an event like Brawl for 6 years in a row is nothing short of amazing.

Thanks.....love the new accounts and the 1st post.....not sure what that guy was talking about.

I will def be at the next BCPPL whenever it is.

Love you Tommy.....can't thank all of you guys enough! I remember the first Stetson Bowl event you guys played like it was yesterday......Jimmey with the bottle of Jack in his pack, and of course the streak....great times! See you in DC

Thanks John.....the player pool has certainly shrunk, but I believe "the game" has got better.

This is a very sad day for paintball. I do hope that the BCPPL can come out in 2012 and kick some *** as they put on a great event that will be deeply missed in bc.
Good Luck to you and hope to see you next year.

Guys we know how many teams there is on a constant basis....we know how to gauge team counts better than anyone else....nothing to push for if no no one is playing. see you in 2012 Mike, we plan on wearing our *** kickin boots in January!

Not enough teams are currently playing to economicially support a event like we run. It did not fail, I simply have better things to do this year in my real business than run 18-22 team tournaments.

I can't help but feel that some of the smaller grass roots events that popped up in the lower mainland might have stolen some of the teams away from the BCPPL. Hopefully this will free up some teams to travel up and play in the IPL though.

Thanks Scott, the small events had no effect on team counts for our events. This stuff has always existed. We always tried to focus on professionalism, improvement, and having events that the parents were proud their kids played in. This is they key to growing speedball locally.
I don't see that happening anywhere in the lower mainland today, only insane egos and people thinking they will make a living from running speedball events. The only exception is the new Vincente series, which is all about fun and good times. Vendetta will be playing this sometime this year.
