Xtreme Paintball Season One made its debut on Fox Sports Net (FSN) October 2, 2007. The season consisted of 13 episodes which aired weekly through the end of 2007. Not only are all thirteen episodes now available on DVD, but eight of these episodes will re-air nationwide to 89 million households on FSN Fridays at 3:30 pm from May 9-June 27, 2008. These re-runs will be a fantastic lead in to the launch of Xtreme Paintball Season 2 which will begin airing on FSN July 1st and will run until September 22nd.

The second season will consist of 13 all new episodes featuring deeper story lines on professional players from the NPPL league and action from the NPPL Pro division as well as a look at the recreational side of the sport. The NPPL footage will be filmed May 16-18, 2008 at the NPPL Jacksonville, FL event held outside of the Jacksonville Jaguars NFL stadium. Season 2 will air on Tuesday afternoons at 4:30 pm each week in all time zones. In addition to the 18 pro teams' preliminary and final games, the show will also capture a Pro Skills Challenge and All-Star Game which will take place on Center Court in Jacksonville Friday, May 16th. Fans may vote for the player they want to compete in the All-Star Game by visiting our myspace page at www.myspace.com/npplpaintball.

Sponsors for this year's season of Xtreme Paintball are still being locked in with many already on board. We would like to thank Spyder, KEE, Rockstar and the US Marines for their commitment to the show. As sponsors continue to sign on, the storyline for the show continues to develop with new featured teams being added weekly. To date the camera crews have already zoomed in on Todd Martinez of San Diego Dynasty, Adam "AJ" Johnson of Pasadena Bad Company, Rusty Glaze of Los Angeles Infamous, Marcus Neilson of Dream Team, Chino Carbajal of Miami Rage, Josh Ouimet of Edmonton Impact, Thomas Taylor of Sacramento Excessive and of course everyone’s favorite bad boy, Chris Lasoya.
