2017 World Champ Men's
2017 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP IN MEN`S CATEGORY - TEAM FROM UNITED STATES!
This year once again we had a record number of participants - 24 National teams from all around the world were confirmed to play in the World Championship Men`s, which started on 30th June in London, UK.
This year we had also teams from Australia, Africa and South America!
The teams were placed in 8 groups of three teams each, to play the remaining two in their group. The two best-placed teams from each group advanced to the last 16th. The rest teams had one more game to play for the ranking points.
The games were exciting and the results were quite interesting! Everyone was expected to see Russia playing against USA in finals so they did. It was a difficult game for both the teams. As the result: USA got their regular gold ... and left silver to Russia. Just wondering if anyone can ever fight Americans? None succeed so far.
Everyone got surprised by results of French National team - they did not manage to get to Quarters after their lost to British team! One more surprise was the newcomer from Finland: it was their first time on the World Championship and they managed to get to the 6th position in the world ranking!
It was also the first time on the podium for Czech team! They are bronze!
And one more team is proud of themselves - Italian! They made it to become 8th in the world!
It was an interesting experience for the National team from Panama. By being for the first time in Europe they were excited about everything and we were proud to meet all those guys and to have a possibility to host the National team from Panama!
"The Panama Paintball Association would like to thank the European Paintball Federation (EPBF) and the Millennium Paintball Series for all the attention given to our national selection team during the Campaign Cup 2017. There is something unique about a tournament of national selections. A national selection is not just taking a team to compete with the goal of winning. It is an opportunity to unite all paintball player of a nation under one team, calling all players to participate on the national selection program that will yield the National Selection Team. It requires great care, attention to detail, working together, and documenting all steps during the process. Done right, and you will have players from various teams of the country, feeling as one team, the national selection team. And with that, the national paintball community identified under one team, the National Selection Team. It elevates paintball to an Olympic level… something that all paintball player around the globe demand. We, at the Panamanian Paintball Association salute the great work of the European Paintball Federation and their Campaign Cup, and re-affirming our commitment with this process, both for the female and male national selection team 2018." Michael Eleta Presidente A.DE.PA.P
As usual, we are grateful to all the participants: to the Millennium Series for the support provided for the European Championship organization, to National Teams and also to all the National Federations involved in the organization; and those who helped to produce the very best paintball atmosphere ever - THE SPECTATORS!
