The NPPL has arranged a contract for a 13 episode series on Fox Sports Net titled ‘Xtreme Paintball: Beyond the Paint’. Beginning October 2nd at 4:30 pm (in all time zones), the new paintball television series will air a new episode every Tuesday for 13 weeks (hence the 13 episodes).

What’s the show about?
Thanks for asking. It’s not what you probably thought it was when you first heard about it. It isn’t a game coverage show where they simply air the games at the NPPL like you’ve seen before.

The 13-part docu-drama series will be showcasing the lives, personalities and culture of the sport of paintball. The viewer will see the players as people before they see them as athletes. By using a wide spectrum of features, the show will breakdown the paintball industry with segments on globalization, Hollywood appeal, as well as the business of paintball and technology. -NPPL
