today on Woolford Avenue, opposite Stella Maris Primary School, where a video of the games will be done to continue to grow the sport.
Chief Executive Officer of PPG, Reona Cathro told Kaieteur Sport that their new location will be representing everything that patrons are used to in the sport. “We are asking participants to come out in their numbers and be part of the excitement,” she said.
Planet Paintball began operations in August 2012 and since then the sport has been stretched to different facilities, including the National Insurance Scheme Ground on CARIFESTA Avenue, the Jackie Robertson Sports Ground on the East Coast (before UG road) and Dakota Park near the South Dakota Circuit on the Linden/Soesdyke Highway.
Each venue represents a space for a different format of the game. The speedball format will most likely be played at the Woolford Avenue venue today. The founders of Planet Paintball Guyana, Chris and Reona Cathro, is committed to development of the sport, which is globally played and recognised through the National Paintball Professional League (NPPL) with 18 franchise teams in the United States of America.
The World Ultimate Woodsball League appointed Planet Paintball the official ‘Ultimate League’ status in Guyana. With this appointment, Guyanese players can now play League and tournament games and receive an international player and team ranking among 180 countries.
