The fact is, there are probably more Readers who would follow the US College paintball scene, than would follow the UKM, PA and NSPL all put together.

Quote from Robbo:
PGi is an international magazine with 95 % of our readership and customer base in the States and therefore our editorial will reflect this and it would be commercial suicide to feature too intently on UK teams as I don't think many Yanks are gonna be that interested in the Cleethorpe Rangers who have just played the Hull 5 man.
PBUK is, as the name suggests, a UK magazine and as such can, and does focus on our domestic scene.
Now whilst a lot of UK teams and players may think they deserve or want more coverage in PGi, there are hundreds of other teams in Europe who would have a similar gripe and these would be just as unwarranted because if we went down that road, we would be broke within six months.
There is nothing special about us in the UK that warrants coverage outside of achievements and at the moment, our achievements are very thin on the ground.
If Brit teams wanna get more coverage then I am afraid they need to do more in terms of tournament success which comes back to the self same problem we have had for years in this country, very few wanna actually do something about it and at the moment, the top end tournament side of our sport really only has 3 reps, Nexus, Shock and Kelly's..that's it I'm afraid.

The moral of this story, if you wanna read more about UK teams, then go buy PBUK, if you wanna read about the top end of our sport as is reflected in the US and Europe, then PGi is where it's at.
