In case you didn’t know, our Events Manager, Tyler Fields, is a paintball wizard (boom, song reference!). We know you’ve been wanting to play, so with his help, we’ve been busy putting together a paintball arena right here behind the bunker! This summer we’ll have a few days of tournament play on our brand new paintball field.
Since the field in Truro has closed down, the bunker has taken on the mantle of local league arena. The EPPL (Eastern Paintball Players League) will be coming to Debert to play a tournament at the Bunker field! The EPPL is the only competitive paintball league in Atlantic Canada, and offers the highest level of play available. There are three levels of play in EPPL: 3-man rookie, 3-man open, and the highest level, 5-man xball. These are some sharp shooters, so it is absolutely worth coming by to spectate. The side of the bunker makes a fantastic riser – bring up a chair and some snacks and watch some paintball!
Enter the Bunker is working with EPPL to put on a small tournament that is designed for newer player. In this tournament, equipment will be provided and covered by the cost of entry. So you don’t have to be an experienced player, and you don’t even have to bring your own gear to participate! Just yourself, your team, and your sense of adventure. This tournament is a revival of the old Armymans Rookie Series run by Tyler. This was held in Salmon River from 2012 – 2014.
More details to come over the next few months!
With the Hospitality Centre available for player accommodations just down the road, we hope this tournament will provide a boost of traffic for the Debert area, and local businesses.
