Paintballing Champions

UKC Chimera takes the top spot on the podium in the National Paintball Student Cup!

The Cup held at CPPS in Birmingham is a chance for university teams across the UK to play against each other in a tournament.

The event was attended by 16 teams from 12 universities, who competed in Masters’ or Bachelors’ divisions. It is not only the first time that UKC has participated in the Student Cup throughout the ten years it has been running, but it was also Chimera’s first official tournament.

Paintballing Society President Alexander Long said: “The team couldn’t have achieved this tremendous win without the superb coaching received from Gary Maker, financial support provided by Kent Union, and sponsorship from Empire and Just Paintball.”

Kent Union Vice President (Activities) Tom Currie said: “We are incredibly proud of the Paintballing Society for winning the Paintball Student Cup; it is testament to the hard work and effort they put into running their society. We look forward to seeing their future achievements.”
