Latest DC Arsenal Paintball News
DC Arsenal made two last minute adjustments to the pro paintball teams roster prior to this weekends NPPL 2011 Chicago Open paintball tournament. Dorrito player Justin Schwarz has left the team and former Arsenal player Steven Pitts will be taking his place. According to sources, Schwarz is playing with Frank Connell and St. Louis Avalanche for the Chicago Open. ProPaintball insiders suggest there a high likelihood that Justin will be returning to Infamous for the remainder of the season.

Steven Pitts most recently played with pro paintball with San Diego Aftermath. Aftermath retired at the end of the 2010 season and several of his former teammates joined Dynasty. Accourding to sources familiar with the matter, Dynasty offered Pitts a spot on the teams 2011 roster. Instead, Pitts decided instead to refocus his energy on completing his college degree prior to returning to the pro field. When talking to ProPaintball, Pitts mentioned that he planned to take off the 2011 paintball season and only played with Hollywood HK because he couldn’t afford to miss NPPL Huntington Beach. A member of DC Arsenal who wished to remain anonymous informed ProPaintball that Arsenal offered Steven Pitts a deal and practice/event schedule that he could not refuse.

Arsenal has a very solid roster and it will be interesting to watch them progress throughout the NPPL 2011 Super-7 series. Be sure to stay tuned for the latest paintball gear, news and rumors on ProPaintball.com.

New Direction

San Diego Dynasty spent the weekend practicing the PSP World Cup layout and trying different plays out. Leading them in this endeavor was Mike Hinman, both a former Dynasty player and owner of SD Aftermath. Earlier this morning PRO Paintball sources confirmed that Mike will be coaching DYNASTY’s Xball squad starting at PSP World Cup.

Roster Adjustments

Alex Fraige will not be playing in the 2010 PSP World Cup.  Alex will be out due to a conflict with his schedule that was both unavoidable and unchangeable. According to PRO Paintball insiders, Fraige made every effort to find a way to make it to World Cup but ultimately just wasn’t able to happen. Rumors indicate that Steven Pitts (formerly of SD Aftermath) will be playing is his place.

New Paintball Gear

PRO Paintball insiders also learned that DYNASTY will be debuting the new EMPIRE LTD ZE Paintball Pants at the 2010 PSP World Cup. The new EMPIRE LTD Paintball Pants feature a new hip & groin protection system, a redesigned waist adjustment system, kevlar lined knee pads and adjustable cuffs.
