Spyder Became Gold Sponsor CFOA 2008

CFOA Recognizes Returning Gold Sponsors
As the CFOA moves into its banner tenth season producing 5-man events and its 3ed year promoting XBall competitions across the southeastern United States, providing customers with cash prizes and the very best regional tournaments available would be impossible without the support of some of the most influential companies in paintball. Three of those companies, Planet Eclipse, Smart Parts and Spyder, all prior sponsors of the league, have renewed their support of the CFOA and its thousands of players on the Gold Level!

Smart Parts, the Gold Level sponsor who has been with the CFOA the longest, has always extended generous support of the league, first with prizes, then with gift certificates, then with their Ion, Shocker SFT and Shocker NXT paintball guns, and now with cash! Longtime innovators with such great products as the groundbreaking and immensely affordable Ion, the Shocker, used by more world champions than any other paintball gun, the versatile Freak Barrel system and the SP-1 scenario gun, Smart Parts produces products for every budget, style and level of play. Sponsors of such great teams as the Naughty Dogs, two-time NXL champion Philadelphia Americans and legendary team Dynasty, Smart Parts' road to the forefront of paintball is lined with gold trophies!

Planet Eclipse joined the CFOA several years ago and has rapidly grown to become one of the league's greatest supporters. Eclipse's amazing Ego line of paintball guns took the CFOA by storm shortly after their release and have come to dominate the series over the last two years, with numerous tournaments and several series titles won by Ego-shooting teams! Represented regularly at league events with a large vendor presence and extensive tech support, Eclipse stands behind many successful teams on the world stage, like the Bushwackers, XFactor, XSV, Infamous, Aftermath, Avalanche, the Hurricanes and Impact! To see the complete line of Eclipse products, from jerseys, pants, gloves, pads and gear bags to ETek2, Ego8 and SL8R Ego models, visit www.planeteclipse.com and visit the Eclipse booth at every CFOA five-man event!

Spyder, the newest of the three returning Gold sponsors of the CFOA, became a part of the league family in just before the 2007 season and immediately made an impact, offering their hot new VS2 Spyder models as prizes at every 5-man event. Cooperation between the legendary company and the CFOA continued, as the league assisted in the promotion of the 2007 Spyder Cup regional qualifier at Paintball Central Sports Park Charlotte. In 2008, Spyder will again support the CFOA, and the CFOA will again assist with the Spyder Cup! Spyder's current product line includes the Spyder VS series of tournament-grade paintball guns and the Spyder MR series of military-style tactical models. Spyder guns and the Spyder Cup can be studied further at www.spyder.tv !

The CFOA humbly thanks its returning Gold sponsors, Smart Parts, Planet Eclipse and Spyder, as well as new Gold sponsors, NXe, Severe and XO Industries for their support in the coming season, alongside the prestigious Platinum Sponsors, Dye Precision, KEE Action Sports and DXS, for their generous support of the league and its customers in 2008.
