It is necessary to emphasize that this year there is a quite productive exchange with the great manufacturers of paintball equipments. They have been demonstrating enough interest for the Latin America market and it has been shown not only with the presence of the Eclipse guys in the CBP, but also, with the arrival of the player Oliver Lang one week ago, and the visit of Dave Youngblood, Dye’s president, in June for the CSP. The arrival of these enterprises that can see with their own eyes the job of those who believe, invest and promote paintball events is crucial so that there are improvements in a near future.
Special thanks to the referee team and to Mega Play staff, without their work won´t be possible to have a quality championship and to all that contributed to the realization of one more CBP event, which was a success!
