The National Collegiate Paintball Association is an all-volunteer,
non-profit organization created by college players to promote
paintball at the interscholastic level. The NCPA and its member
clubs organize recruitment drives, informational meetings,
recreational club outings, scenario and big games, charity
events, intrascholastic events for other university organizations,
and of course the national intercollegiate tournament league.
NCPA members play a vital role in presenting paintball to the
public in a positive manner through various volunteer and legislative
efforts. The NCPA also provides various benefits for its members.

Redbirds Win ISU Open
The Illinois
State Redbirds won the ISU Open this weekend,
with the Purdue
Boilermakers taking second, newcomer
Northern Illinois
Huskies in third, and the University
of Illinois Illini rounding out the top four. It was
a tough day for some of the older teams, with Illinois'
top squad failing to make the finals and Purdue just
making the finals cut after the new University of Wisconsin-Plattville
squad missed the flag pull in their last game by seconds.
