Victorious at last!

Five years.

That’s a long time by any standard. For a team that has been almost completely rebuilt and then nourished in the shadow of past success, it’s a long time to struggle for those rare rays of light.

The Finnish National League is rolling strong in 2010

The Finnish Paintball Federation (SPBL) has released information on the enrollments for the coming 2010 season. It’s great to see that the Finnish scene is doing well even though we have had a lot of bad news globally. The national league has the championship level and three divisional levels coming up to 41 teams in total,  all playing some variant of race to -format this year. What has been great to see is that the level of play in the lower divisions has really improved over the last 2 or 3 years and a clear attitude of professionalism and athleticism is starting to become more and more visible throughout the ranks.

Helsinki Cyclone will have two teams participating in the domestic competition series, one in the championship league and one in the first division. Naturally we have set our goals for highest finishes in both series.

Check out the full teamlist below:
