FORMATS
D6 3-man (traditional)
D3 Raceto3*
D4 Raceto3*
D5 Raceto2**
(traditional)- Round robin format, six prelim games and then round robin brackets for the final rounds.
*- Raceto3 Format is regular PSP match play with two minutes between points, each team will have a two minute timeout, and the match will end at the expiration of time or one team scoring 3 points. Raceto3 match time will be ten minutes.
**- Raceto2 matches will be done millennium style. Example: teams from Match A will play a point and when finished the teams from Match B will directly (30 seconds) start their point. Rather than a set time between points with nothing happening on the field the teams from the two different matches will rotate points. When those matches are finished the next four teams will start. Besides the gain in efficiency the teams should get a little more of a break between points than last year. There will be a minimum of 2 minutes before teams have to go back on the field. So if a team gets beat in match B in 30 seconds teams from Match A will still get at least a two minute break.

The 2012 CFPS is wrapped up. Over the weekend of Event 6 teams had to deal with the heat and hard rain, despite this, there was some pretty amazing paintball played. Come from behind victories seemed to be the norm, and not just in the games. Two of the series champions were behind the leaders coming into this event.
The series this year could'nt have gone better from our perspective. I want all of the teams that compete here to know how much we appreciate them, it is a real honor to get to meet and spectate you all. Watching througout the year as competitors improve in skill and finish is a delight and it is rewarding to be able to provide a place for you to showcase your talents.
I am looking forward to next season and hope to see everyone back for another great year,
John Smith
