Dye Paintball published Tommy Pemberton’s retirement announcement on their site. To many, the message of the 24-year old Nexus powerhouse is a great surprise, as the injury was not something that happened in front of the public eye. Being plagued by constant knee problems throughout the last few seasons, Tommy went in to a double-knee surgery to fix the issues and return problem-free for the season 2010. However, during the surgery, a more serious problem was found from his right knee, and he had no possibility to continue as a profesional paintball player. Tommy will continue working in the paintball industry at DYE Europe, and will share his knowledge through numerous clinics that will be upcoming.
We are sad to hear the news, and wish Tommy all the best in his future.
