PSP Introduces New Divisions at Chicago 2009

DIV RaceTo-4 has been added for this event and will be an opportunity for teams to try the back-to-back point format of RaceTo-4. Only two D3 players will be allowed on a D4 roster.

Teams competing in DIV RaceTo-4 can register onsite at the event beginning on Tuesday, June 23rd. Competition will begin on Wednesday and run through Sunday. The first and second place teams will receive ½ off an entry fee for DIV RaceTo-4 at the 2009 World Cup! Prizes are non-transferrable and will only be valid for that event.

Classification Roster Size Game Time Max ROF Penalties
DIV 5 to 8 10 10bps 1-4-1’s & 2-4-1’s

The Chicago Open will also host DII RaceTo-2. This is the only division open to players that are also playing RaceTo-4 and RaceTo-5. Only one D1 player will be allowed per roster. No Semi-Pro or Pro players will be allowed. For classification purposes, this event will only count as D3.

Registration for DII RaceTo-2 will remain open until Friday, June 26th for those teams that just can’t get enough play time. Competition will run Saturday and Sunday.

Please note that while the DII RaceTo-2 preliminary rounds will not conflict with DII RaceTo-5 or DIII RaceTo-4, it is possible for later rounds to overlap with finals. No adjustments or refunds will be made for conflicting schedules resulting from players playing in both DII RaceTo-2 and another division.

Virgina Big 1

Paintball Virginia announces a pre-registration prize for the Virginia Big 1! Bart from Paintball Virginia, during the players’ meeting of The Phoenix Project, proclaims, “I will give away a new Tippmann TPX to one lucky player who pre-registers for the Virginia Big 1.”

The Virginia Big 1 will be held at Paintball Virginia in Danville on June 27th & 28th. The price to play for the weekend is only $35. This includes both HPA & CO2! The best thing about the Virginia Big 1 – it’s BYOP, no Monster Ball is allowed. The field, however, will have fresh paint available for a pre-registration price of $45 per case.

Pre-registration closes at 11:59 pm on Friday, June 19th. At which time, every player who has paid for their pre-registration will be entered into the drawing for the TPX. The drawing will take place at the players’ meeting on Saturday morning of the Virginia Big 1. Players need not be present to win. 100 players must be pre-registered for the TPX to be given away. If 100 players are not pre-registered, Paintball Virginia reserves the right to substitute another pre-registration prize.
