The UK teams don't get too much love in the USA magazines. But this month in Action Pursuit Games there are a load of brit team pictures from all over the place. Teams featured were: No Excuse, Jaguars, Imperial, SAD, K2, UK Cougars. So the word must be spreading guys !!

Before you ask, no i haven’t got any copies. We only get one to keep an eye on things in the USA. I just thought that some of you might want to know that you might me famous and not even know about it.

hmm, were they the only ones? You would have thought that teams like Nexus, Tigers, Shock and Storm would have got a mention after their Millennium exploits and NPPL success.

Alas, you prove the validity of my observation, Mark. :D
APG has about as much relevance to tourney paintball, anywhere in the world, as the cultural prohibition to inbreeding has on a family of Ozark mountain hillbillies.

Right gloves off :D

Paul they covered a major event wether or not it was in a cow pasture or not, they do cover other events as well....yes it does lean towards newbies and recball but then where do the tourny players of tomorrow come from...straight off the streets and onto a sup-air field ??? don't think so. If you ignore the amount of advertising then it is an "ok" read but you take from the magazine what you want.....PGI is across the board but with huge leanings towards the US tournament scene, Faceful is pretty girls in out of focus arty poses...oh and some paintball
Paintball UK is just that UK Paintball. P2X is a crazy ass mag don't really know where to place that one. Ledz was just letting the world (well UK really, as Mods don't count in demographics) know. In the immortal words of Dr Pepper "whats the worst that can happen" :D :D

Was this the event they held on US soil but actually invited foreign countries to attend.
