Other questions? What activities does the National Collegiate Paintball Association engage in? The NCPA is the non-profit association of college paintball clubs in the United States and Canada. The NCPA provides the information and support necessary to help new clubs get started and existing clubs have the maximum impact on their campuses and communities. The NCPA and its member clubs establish a paintball presence on college campuses across the country, encourage students and faculty to try paintball, hold informational and safety meetings for prospective players and community members, organize recreational, scenario and tournament activities for students, other student organizations, and community groups, provide volunteers for and host their own chairty events, organize intercollegiate tournaments in a national league, and provide positive role models within the sport and to the public. The NCPA also supports similar activities at the high school level. While college tournaments are the most visible facet of what we do they are also only a small part of the numerous activities that directly involve tens of thousands of students, faculty, parents and others in paintball annually. What contribution programs are available? The NCPA recognizes four contribution levels, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum, at $500, $1000, $2000 and $4000 for the season respectively. Bronze and Silver contribution levels may be met with a $1000 or $2000 product donation. The NCPA is incorporated under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code, and all contributions are thus tax-deductible. All contributors are recognized by the NCPA on the website, including on the mian, tournament schedule, team rankings, collegelist, and conference pages, as well as in distributed materials, in order of contribution. Contributors also enjoy the gratitude of thousands of college and high school club players across the country. Additionally: Silver Contributors: Receive one banner rotation slot on the NCPA website. Banner placement in the Links section of the website. Gold Contributors: Waiver of vendor fees for one table at any regular season NCPA events and the National Championships.

Please note that according to IRS regulations, the value of goods and services received in exchange for a contribution must be subtracted from any contribution claimed as a deduction. How does the NCPA use my contribution? Last year, approximately 10% of our contributions went to administrative expenses with the remaining 90% used to subsidize team participation in college and high school events. It is the NCPA's goal to keep administrative expenses to a minimum. The NCPA currently has no paid employees or plans to hire employees in the 2002-2003 season. How many teams are likely to participate? We expect a total combined attendance of 100 to 150 teams from all events. This would make a gold contribution about $1000 to $1500 and a Silver contribution $500 to $750. Remember, this contribution covers ALL SEVEN events. How do I contribute?
