DIVISIONAL PLAY
In Division One it was Kiev Xpress defeating Paris
Camp Carnage 2 in the finals to take first place.
Galapagos Tortugas from Ecuador knocked off
Palm Beach Royals from the Netherlands to take
the Division Two championship. And Paintball
Family Puget won their Division Three final round
game against Brussels Heat 2 for the win.
THOUGHTS…
T he move back to Puget-su-Argens probably
didn’t work out the way that the Millennium
Series owners and teams would have liked. The
weather was not pleasant but the fact is that’s
not uncommon for almost anywhere in Europe

in March. So what options does that leave for
the Millennium going forward? There are no sure
bets in Europe for a March event. April?
Eight of the ten final round teams from the five
division represented different countries. From
the Netherlands to the Ukraine and all the way to
Ecuador and New Zealand, worldwide paintball
was represented at the highest level of each
division.
The competition in the CPL—look for Russian
Legion, TonTons, Impact and Breakout Spa to
dominate the CPL all year. After that it’s a pretty
even field of teams. Best guess is Joy Division
and MLKings separate themselves from the
second tier pack by the season’s end. Still it’s
hard to imagine either will crack the top four
more than maybe once or twice this season.
