PART II OF 3-MAN PAINTBALL COMPETITION SUNDAY
Following the success of its inaugural Speedball 3-Man Paintball Tournament, Rueters Raiders Extreme Paintball will host another tournament this Sunday at the extreme sport company’s facility in As Matuis.
Owner Michael Rueters said he already received confirmation from at least seven teams that will participate in the paintball competition.
The teams that have so far signed up for the “War Games” are Young Guns, Recon Ballers, SS Ghost Co, Xecutioners, Team I.C., MMV Dragons, and Power 99. Rueters said two teams with no names yet have also indicated their interest and will show on game day.
Rueters Raiders Extreme Paintball opened a little over a year ago. Interested parties can play seven-minute matches for $15 a game. The company is open only on weekends and could also accommodate reservations.
