I see a lot of reference to the NPPL pertaining to this event, With the NPPL no longer an active competitive paintball league does this affect the event for 2015?? Also will you be using the APPA to check the status and rank of players??
I am working on getting you an answer. I hope to get back to you soon.

I received a response form Mike Peverill, the sports coordinator for Paintball. Here is his response:
The NPPL as a governing body still exist, so that means the rules and guidelines will continue. They are the oldest set of paintball games rules in existence and are used internationally. The “event” side of the of house to run its own events has closed. This is has no effect on the rules and wont effect the upcoming WPFG 2015.
As far as status is concerned, the rules state: “Any player who has previously registered as a “pro” in tournament level paintball is not eligible to compete in the games for a period of 3 years following their last professional event. A maximum of 1 former professional player is allowed on any team roster regardless of time elapsed. Any team rostering a former professional player is required to play in Division A.”
So we will only need to determine if we have a pro player, and no more than one pro player on a team, and ensure his/her team is in the A Division.
I am working on getting you an answer. I hope to get back to you soon.
