National Professional Paintball League (NPPL)

The NPPL is a competition in which 7-player teams compete in seeded, timed formats to capture the flag for a win. During the competition, players that are hit or marked by splattered paint from gelatin capsules shot from special paint guns fall in a mock battlefield of air-filled obstacles and mazes located on the sandy beaches in Huntington Beach. The event is free to watch and attracts team from around the world who fill the hotel rooms, shops and restaurants of Huntington Beach for the event which usually runs 3 days. Previously the event was filmed by Fox Sports Net and aired on television.
