all this at an affordable price akin to a good team practice: (but better 'cuz u have refs, competition and structure)
- $25 entry per player (player card included)
- cases of paint starting at just $48/2000 with the top brands at $63/2000
the mission:
to give the newer teams to the sport a chance to experience the thrill of competitive paintball while still keeping the costs within the budgets neccessary to begin.
in addition, regular competing provincial teams will have the option to practice for their own paintball agenda's: bcppl, nws, island series etc in a 'tournament feel' environment but at a cost similar to a regular practice. the refs and structure keep the game safe and fun for every1 while the trophies and prizes create the 'rush' similar to that of the bigger leagues. in essence, paintballevents.ca is helping to grow the sport at the GRASS-ROOTS level.
this 'practice series' should help create a new group of teams and therefore augment many of the existing paintball events such as the provincial league, the ipl the nws, the mxl and the island series.
other great draws are being mulled and this is an early draft but expect to see a push for a b.c all-star team sponsored by a collection of paintball companies and also a push to bring the x-ball experience to b.c to stay.
