PSP World Cup to Host UWL 5 man
The UWL brings back World Cup in the Woods
There is one event in the sport of tournament paintball that has historically stood above the rest. That one time each October where players, store owners, field operators, manufacturers, media, league officials, event promoters, and fans from many nations and cultures come together for what is often referred to as the “Superbowl” or “Olympics” of Paintball. The event is the PSP World Cup and this year will be even more remarkable as the Ultimate Woodsball League (UWL) announces they will be running a 5-man World Cup Event – in the woods.
Taking place in thick trees lining the PSP World Cup tournament and Trade Show at Fantasy of Flight in Polk City, Florida, the UWL 5-Man World Cup will offer three divisions of play (Pro, Open and Tactical) over Saturday and Sunday, October 27 and 28. Each 16-minute game is divided into two 8-minute periods. The objective for each team is to capture 2 swing flags and their opponent’s base flag. All markers will be capped at 10 BPS and while teams can bring their own paint, there will be no heavy gunner, rockets or snipers.
Pro $500 Entry
No roster restrictions
1st Place $2000.00 Cash
Open $ 400 Entry
1 Pro or D1 player allowed
$2,500.00 in prizes
Tactical $ 300 Entry
No Pro or D1 players allowed
$1,000.00 in prizes

Big event + reasonable entry fee + simple divisions + cash prizes = an appealing event. This is the key for the future of the sport, in my opinion. In the woods or on the turf makes little difference. The point being getting the sport back to events that are appealing for many different players of diverse ages, ranks, and playing preferences.
This is a good move on the part of UWL and PSP. Well done.

I am just excited to see this at World Cup. Even if I don't have time to play this is AWESOME. With it being on Saturday I might be able to jump in a game or 2 if I am lucky. Just excited to see UWL get this worked out it will be huge for the league.

Paintball News Rules |
- No Upping threads. If you have something to say, please do, but don't post in the thread just to take it to the top of the forum.
- Do not post "1st post", "1st", "First post" or anything similar (or with any other number) at any point in a thread, even if you post a comment too. It is really annoying and it will result in a ban.
- If you don't like something, say why instead of just calling it ugly, lame, gay or any other name. If it is old, simply post a link or report the post with a link to the older News thread.
- Please don't post links for places to buy items. That encourages stores, sponsored players and other people to do it and spam the site.
If you have questions, please post them in the Talk to Mods/Admins forum.
