EPL Tournament Series

We would like to wish the Knuckle Up Kids best of luck attending The Eastern Paintball League tournament hosted at Hematomas Paintball this weekend. The Knuckle Up Kids will be playing D3 at the Tournament and currently practice at the Amelia Paintball Park. The tournament is in the standard 5-man format with a center flag and ramping allowed.


The EPL series started in 2007 and has continued to grow as it travels up and down the east coast from Virginia down to South Carolina. Most of the tournaments are hosted within an hour of the beach and at various paintball fields along the east coast. This is a great tournament series for those who are just starting out as a team because the costs are low, competition isn't quite as high a caliber as those in the larger national tournaments, you can bring your own paint, and of course the prizes are very good.

The EPL currently has several divisions for players and offers 3-man and 5-man formats. There are 5 events scheduled for the 5-man series in 2008. While there are only 4 tournaments scheduled for the 3-man format. Look for the EPL to continue to grow as it broadens its reach further inland within the next year.

Again, everyone wish The Knuckle Up Kids good luck as they head out to represent Richmond Paintball.
