We welcome those of you looking to play in the Pine Tree State (that would be Maine!) to visit our League website at www.mrpl.org
We are Maine's first and only paintball league - dedicated to working with players, fields and shops ... and not just tournament players as most leagues seem to be. We have eleven different fields and shops in the league at this time, along with over 200 player-members. Membership for players is gained by taking a 60-question Safety Quiz. Membership for fields requires that certain safety guidelines be met (signage, insurance, netting, etc), along with a suggested ref's training course.
We help fields promote speedball tournaments as well as recreational paintball events ... charity games, scenarios, etc. We are a non-profit corporation, and want to see the sport of paintball advanced to become more popular and accepted by more people. Our efforts seem to be paying off as most fields have reported an increase in their visits due to - in part - the league's help with marketing, promotion, and making the sport more acceptable for mom, dad, and the kids.
Our league is unique in that all of our fields and shops work together. We don't under-cut each other, or "dis" each other. In fact, if one place is booked and more players want to play, we'll freely recommend another field for them to try. It's working!
Feel free to email membership@mrpl.org for more info.
