2012 Atlantic Tactical Woodsball League Event 2

ATWL Event Two Played Rain and Shine


The second event of the 2012 Tippmann X7 Phenom Atlantic Tactical Woodsball League was played June 9th at Hypersportz Paintball in Mount Uniacke Nova Scotia.

Rain overnight and all game day morning left many players disheartened that once again they would be playing in boot sucking mud, with players afraid that an inadvertent marker drop would result in a gun never being seen again. Although the ATWL had visited this location in previous seasons, this woodsball field had not been seen by players in the past.

2012 ATWL Season is Underway

Season Kicks Off With Some Of The Best Woodsball Ever Played

The sixth season of the premiere woodsball league in Eastern Canada, the Tippmann X7 Phenom Atlantic Tactical Woodsball League (ATWL) kicked off May 19th, 2012 Mersey Road Paintball in East River Nova Scotia.

The blue skies and warm weather that greeted the five teams at event one belied the gathering paint storm that was brewing, ready to be unleashed. As the teams milled about they prepared for the first stage of a season long battle to decide who would be crowned the best woodsball team in Eastern Canada.

Black Friday Mark the Start of the 2012 Season

Tippinators Have Fun at Season Opener


The Tippinators came out in force to the event that many players consider to be the unofficial opening of the Atlantic Canadian paintball season, Black Friday. The Event was held on Friday April 6th, 2012 at Mersey Road Paintball in East River Nova Scotia. The Tippinators like many other ballers in Atlantic Canada descended on Mersey Road ready to shoot some paint and have some fun.

Black Friday is a special kind of event where after a winter of being able to only play the occasional game of indoor reball, the Tipps plus legions of woodsballers, and speedballers, gather for a day of fun before players gravitate back to their preferred style of play.

Toughest Marker in the Universe?

Tippmann 98 - One Tough Marker


Some people say Tippmann Sports make the toughest paintball markers on the planet. While other manufacturers annually change their products, the Tippmann 98 has been in production virtually unchanged for fourteen years. Length of production doesn’t have any affect on durability, however, when something is done right, you don’t change it.
