Folks,

Our first event is now OFFICIAL and will be hosted at one of paintball's premiere and most historical fields - Paintball Sports New York - formerly known as Survival New York.

We're all very excited about this - a real chance to get paintball back to its foundation - when the competition was serious, but also a heck of a lot of fun!  I could talk all day about then vs now, but those of you who played back then already know what I'm talking about - games that remain legendary 25 years later, play that was more about what went on in your head than what you did with your finger - being proud of snaking single shots through the bushes, instead of being proud that you could go through two or more cases in a day.

This is our chance to show the industry - and ourselves - that those days were really special and should once again become a major part of what it is that we do.  We could all use your help in getting the word out and making this a red letter day in the history of paintball.

If there is anything we can do to assist you or help you get some players and some teams up for this, please let us know.

Sincerely,

Steve Davidson
for The National Pump League


Press Release:


PAINTBALL SPORTS NY (f.k.a. SURVIVAL NEW YORK)
Presents

WOODSBALL WORLD CUP – September 10, 11 & 12, 2010

WINTER CUP – March 20 & 21, 2010

Calling all scenario woodsball power teams, top level tournament teams of today, and the best tournament players of the Aughts, 90’s and 80’s.

Remember the “Golden Age” of paintball, the 80’s and early 90’s, when tournament ball was played in the woods, when both stealth and power were necessary to a team’s success? When being smart was just as important as being fast? When legendary teams like Navarone, Ironmen, Master Blasters, Terminators, the Lords of Discipline, the All Americans, Ridgerunners dominated the field? When industry leaders and legendary players like Marty Bush and Shane Pastana, “Spud” and “Cope”, Bob Long, Bill and Adam Gardner were playing?

They all played at the World Cup.

Twenty years ago the top players from all across the United States and Canada stepped onto the playing fields in New York, fields with names like Ponderosa, Top of the Ridge and Challenger, shooting guns called Carter Termites, Lapco Grey Ghosts, Line SI Bushmasters, loading ten round tubes of paint into their stick feeds and cracking 12-grams with their quick-changers

It is time to do it again.

Relive the “Glory Days” of 10 man team competition and play alongside and against the legends of paintball’s greatest competition era at our roll-out event, the Winter Cup in March, and then get ready for the big show – the Woodsball World Cup in September.

Same fields, same rules, same judges, same equipment, mechanical pumps and semis only. The Master Blasters, developers and masters of radio zone judging, will be coming back to officiate.

Let’s see if the woods ball power teams of today can stand against those of yesteryear. Let’s see if the top arena ball teams of today can be successful in this classic venue. Let’s relive the old days and experience new ones with those who made tournament paintball great.
