Why Should a team choose the Eastern Paintball League?

First Regional League to Run the RaceTo-2 Format in the northeast and Virginia

· While other leagues were still running round robin formats, the EPL followed with the industry change of the RaceTo-2.  Thus showing that anyone can get lucky in one match, but a truly better team could overcome and win a match of the best 2 of 3 games.  Competitiveness breads champions, which was an end result with several teams from the EPL having podium finishes at the PSP World Cup in Florida back in 2009.

Certified Ref Staff - Same ref staff is used at all events

· Not only did the EPL break the mold, set by other leagues, by bringing in paid referees, they also insured that the same referees were at each event.  By insuring the players of what to expect from the referee staff, players are now able to concentrate on playing their game.  No more worrying about who the local ref staff is and who they want to win.  Nothing but unbiased and professional reffing is what you can expect from the EPL in 2010.

Truly Mirrored Layouts

· Each field is laid and marked to the inch when it comes to bunker placement.  Each field is exactly the same on each side, so no matter what end you start from, you can expect the same on the other end.

APPA used for ranking players

· ID cards appear useless but are a necessary evil that keeps all the sandbaggers away.  If you want to play in a league that follows a national ranked system and not one that just puts your picture on a card, you are going to want to play the EPL.  We track players from all the nationally and regionally ranked events to insure that players are in divisions they are meant to be in.

Events are held at different locations

· Playing at the same location can get boring.  Sometimes a new venue is what it takes to bring out the best in a player.

Field layouts are presented online in a 3-D format

· Advance layouts of a field design are very important to some players.  Being able to practice on the same field layout prior to competition is sometimes the extra edge a team might need.  

Media Coverage at all events

· Sometimes seeing your face in the magazine makes it all worth while.  The EPL receives noticeable media coverage from all the major magazines, it’s own thread on PB Nation as well as it’s own message boards on www.eplseries.com.

We offer Cheaper alternative to National events.

· Playing in the big show is fun, but as most of you know, it’s also expensive.  The EPL follows all guidelines of the PSP and the Race to 2 format.  Several EPL teams had podium finishes at the PSP World Cup which were prime examples of the type of competition the EPL consists of.

• 5-MAN RaceTo-2 entry fees will be $200.00 per event.  
• 3-MAN RaceTo-2 entry fees will be $125.00 per event.  
• All teams are required to purchase event paint from our vendors at the event.
• Paint as low as 45.00 per case.

The League is divided into 3 conferences.  The EPL North, EPL South and the NEW EPL Mid-Atlantic.

Both conferences play each other at the end of the year at the East Coast Cup.

· It’s hard to know just how good you are when playing the same teams all year.  By combining the two conferences we are providing a measuring stick for you to gauge just how good you really are.
