Bob Corleto, New England Extreme (NEX) 113 New Hampshire / Massachusetts Bob, what’s New England Extreme’s history? NEX is made up of players who all know each other and that have all played with one another at some point. Some players are newer to the sport and some are coming back from four year retirements. Old friends and now new friends all with the common goal of being a competitive team in the 2014 season. What events have you played in as a team and personally? I have played NPPL and Coached PSP. Other players on the team have played in various national events as well. Does NEX have any sponsors? Paintball Wizard from Tewskbury Ma is our pb sponsor. We have other local sponsors such as Garside Granite Westford MA, Waynes World tattoo Hudson NH, Fire House DJ Campton NH, Title Loans New Hampshire and Areo Bounce New Hampshire. We also have a lot of help from Fox4 Paintball, Upton MA. What is your favorite event of the year? World Cup has always been a good time, However in my opinion HB has hands down been the best event I have been to. What about the tournament game of paintball could be done better? I know this is probably over stated but Reffing is always a HUGE problem. Its not easy to find good refs that know what they are doing. Its to easy to just hire someone that plays paintball and called the “refs.” What is paintball like in your region? Paintball in New England is very challenging. Teams here all strive to compete at the highest level. There are some great teams here and they are always playing hard. WWW.PAINTBALLX3.COM
