Oasis Paintball Park 3 Man 2010 Series

Oasis Paintball Park will be hosting a series of 3 - man events  in 2010.

These events will be geared at giving players a lite version of PSP Race To and Universal  Classification Program Format such as CFPS, CFOA, SPCS Events.

In these tough times it can be hard to field a team for the Race To ( X Ball ) format. This 3 man series will allow almost anyone who wants to play a tournament series to gather some friends together and have a great time. There are two formats. The D6 format is for players/people who have never played in a paintball tournament ( I have geared this to middle schoolers, high school clubs, business groups , etc. ). Ages will be from 10 years of age on.  The D4- D5 Division is geared for the early stage tournament teams . This is a low cost high fun series with medals as prizes.

Once the PSP/CFPS/SPCS release their dates we will add dates.

The first event will be:

When : Saturday February 6th  2010

Time: 9 am

Cost: D6 =  $ 75.00  per team ( up to 5 players )

D4- D5 = $100.00 per team ( up to 5 players )
