I will not release all of the details, but I will guarantee everyone that participates in the tournament will be a winner.
Preregistration ends April 30th. If you want this to happen then you as players need to show your support by registering for the tournament in advance. I will be working the tournament, so I won't be playing. If you have any questions post them here or PM myself, SCBrian, or Brain.

That's tipicly really old news.....me and my friends said we should get the cheap walmart pumps and enter!

i was wondering this too...

Only 3 weeks of registration left, and only 4 teams signed up. Everyone wants to talk the talk, but afraid to walk the walk.. what gives Charleston? I know there are some good pump players out there.

We've heard cries of lets have a pump Tourney, and we put on a FREE one (and even BYOP)and no one seems to have game. What's up guys?

I just sent you a PM i will be signing up the 30th. I've been stuck up here in Florence and thats the only time I'll be coming domn there, i dont care if theres a hurricane or tornado ill be there. That sucks that only 4 teams have signed up. I advertised this on PPIG and SCP. They talk about wanting a tourny but dont walk the walk. There is only one guy from SCP that said hes going, not sure if hes bringing a team. well i hope more people sign up. well see ya later

im sorry guys, but im not gona be able to make it, i have a church commitment that day that i made a long time ago.

I can understand someone honoring prior commitments that were made prior to this event. For those that have been asking/begging for a pump tournament here is your chance. I talked to a couple of teams while I was at Media Wars this weekend and they are planning to attend.
Remember, if you support this tournament there will be more in the future. If you don't support it then it shows that there is plenty of talk, but not enough walk to support a pump tournament, which would make it very difficult for us to plan one in the future.
As you can tell by the price and details this event is not for the field nor promoters to make money, but rather to give what pump players in the southeast have been asking for.....A tournament (and possibly a future series) to call their own. We rolled out the ball, now it is your turn to run with it.

I was thinking about why there might not be alot of teams. One reason why is it is scheduled on the same day as the CFOA tournament in TT. I know there are a couple of people that would have loved to be in it. Another thing that I found out is that the OSC (Old School Challenge) started out with 5 teams in their beginning. This year there were 25 teams! So even if there are 5 teams thats much better than none. We just need to keep stressing pump tournys. On Stockclasspaintball.com there is talk of starting an OSC on the East coast. I am defintely in if this comes to light. So I say if we get at the very least 5 teams we should be golden. Well see you guys at the Tourny. Peace out

For those teams who have yet to register tomorrow, April 30th, is the last day for preregistration. After that date the registration fee goes up to $125. All teams, including those registered after the April 30th deadline will still receive the $100 cash prize at the completion of the tournament. If you don't have a team, why not hit up some of the players you know or just grab some pump players that you meet and make a team. There is only one opportunity to participate in the rebirth of pump tournaments in the southeast. You will be able to tell everyone, "I was there at the inagural PBC pump tournament." How cool is that?

That is cool.. I heard we are up to 7 registered teams? I hope we get a bunch more!
