Different leagues?

[ApexAZ]

Would anyone mind posting a list of all the different leagues out there?

I'm kind of confused about which is which. I know there's NPPL but there's more like xball and psp (or are those the same?) and stuff. Sorry for such a newbie question but I'm a bit confused about them all. I was reading PBN and the different rules regarding ramping, cheating, etc and it's hard for me to distinguish between the different leagues. Not to mention I felt my IQ drop by about 5 points.

Thanks :)

I'll do the very base, but I do not know most of them by any means. RabidChihahau (sp) would likely be more up to date on the current list.

What I know
NPPL
PSP - this includes X-ball
Millenium - I beleive this is mostly in Europe

There are various others, some better, some worse, but these are the most prevasive it seems.

There are plenty more local and regional tournament series like the NEPL in the Northeast, the GPL also in the northeast, Pev's Tournament Series, the Cousins Tournament Series, the SIPPL, the FPS Series in the Pacific Northwest. A great resource for this type of information would be www.paintballtourney.com There are also some great stand-alone events out there like the Diablo Ultimate Madness 5 at www.theultimatemadness.com, which is a 3-man event, and the IAPTE. Hope this helped!

Ramping is legal in CFOA, even though the rules don't explicitly say it.

There's also the NCCS (Northern California Championship Series) which is a local feeder serries for the NPPL.
