There used to be a paintballing program on FTN I believe, cant remember what it was called "Paintball Challenge" or something equally cliché... Was quite fun to watch though as I remember, though last time I saw it was years ago, before I started playing properly myself so with hindsight it may be utter pants.
Im sure someone will know the show of which I speak?

Woah there cowboy, you think there arent people trying to get PB on the airwaves?
Read PGI, couple of months back, there was a massive feature about it. I'm sure Robbo can fill you in on the details
You also have to consider the problems associated with putting paintball on TV. To make an appealing program the integrity of the sport may be compromised to make the broadcasts more appealing to viewers...

paintballing is an extreme sports is it not?
should at least be on extreme sports channel...
I think you're missing the point of what I'm saying mate.
Think about filming a game of paintball, its not like skateboarding is it? Its not 2 minutes of one camera following one person in a predictable fashion (up and down a vert ramp)
Now consider a millenium sized field, 14 players each with their own minds, any one could do any thing at any time. Then theres the question of where to put cameras? From one point on the field you cant see every bunker, or more importantly every player behind those bunkers. You cant really have them on field as they would disrupt the games, outside the netting and you're compromising the filming, above the fields is perhaps a possibility, though you would lose the in-yo'-face aggression etc....
Its a tough predicament, but one I'm happy to leave to the big guns of paintball

Mission Paintball xD think it used too be on Bravo years ago - inthe woods I believe it was...
Few months back I saw another program on a random channel (tourney ball)
Should have at least 10 channels, 1 per person, have 10 TVs, 3 cams on each person - barrel cam, side line cam, were-ever cam... will be sound as a pound!
