the prizes for each event will be paint. the series winners for 1st in D-4 are 5 egos. for 1st in the D-5 division is 5 PM6s. these are the best prizes UXPL has ever had! oh... and you get a trophy i think if you get
1st, 2nd, or 3rd in each division overall.

i don't think you get medals. if you do the MWXPL tourneys you get medals at each event. but UXPL just does a trophy for each division winning team in 1st 2nd and 3rd.

Cody let me set the record straight; We have been doing trophies and Medals for several years!
The UXPL is the event who started the Medals trend long before other local events copied us.

The prizes are enumerated in the UXPL website

The short Version is this

Season prizes indlude:
Egos, PM6's, Eclipse Gear Bags and Clothing, V-force Goggles, C5 68/4500 Tanks, Ions and more.

Event Prizes inlucde:
Over $1550 in paint per Division at EACH event!
Medals & Trophies for 1st through 4th and a large sportsmanship prize!

The math of it all!
The fist place team will get their paint for the next event thats over $550 in paint. So they profit over $200 per event!!
(Entry -350 + paint 550= 200 profit per event)

At the end of the season a 1st place team will have "made money" because they won more paint than the cost of entry... and then the UXPL will give them $7500 in new XSV Egos !!!

The UXPL has given teams everything they have asked for..

1) Good Venue with easy access- Done
2) Lower paint costs - Paint as prizes and paint at only $39/case- Done
3) Bigger Season prizes - Done
4) One day event - Done
5) Improved Reffing - Done with more trained Reffs and more of them
6) NPPL Feeder and XPSL affiliation - Done
7) Keep a 5 man format to allow more teams to play -Done
8) Clean up "bad attitudes" - Done with suspensions for misbehavior
9) Keep the cost low - Done the per player season cost (Entry, Paint, Travel, Hotel, etc) is significantly lower than most other events our size across the country and our prizes are larger.
10) Some 7 man events to try out - Done with XPSL points for those who need them.
11) Attractive Cheerleaders - Still interviewing 😉

We hope you will join us for the UXPL 2006 Season..

Put down the X-Box controller, get off the computer and come play some fun, tournament paintball!

I have been extremely impressed with everything that I have seen so far! Allen and the rest of the UXPL crew have done precisely what promoters must do to keep their series viable: THEY HAVE LISTENED TO THE PLAYERS, AND RESPONDED TO THEIR DEMANDS AND REQUESTS! I for one will be playing the series for the whole season with my boys from Idaho.

I look forward to what looks to be a great tournament.

*For those of you out there who are not sure if you want to participate, GET YOUR ______ (insert your prefered word for Buttocks here) in gear! It is cheaper to play the whole season of UXPL through pre registration than it is to play several other small tournament series. And this tourney series will be the first local that gives the top teams a true chance to PROFIT from their paintball playing!

THE FIRST EVENT IS MAY 13th, and registration is open! See you all there!

Kyle

p.s.- **Allen, I sent you a message on uxpl.com. Hit me back if you need to.

thanks for clearing it up Allen. i wasn't sure if UXPL did medals or not. doesn't really matter this year since the other prizes are so good! i love the UXPL and they do an exellent job every year doing these tournaments. without it, MWXPL, XPSL, and Addicts would be the only main series for the year. many teams dont travel to the XPs and MWs, so UXPL is the only option for them. Big Thanks To The UXPL!!!

Lets Play Paintball

I have been reading about all the players that want to play in the UXPL this year. But from what I have heard, only Idaho teams have registered. Come on guys/girls lets get some Utah teams signed up. I want to play with a large veriaty of players/teams. Lets show Idaho that Utah wants to play as much as they do.😁
