Yankee Division signs with Tippmann Sports

The Yankee Division Paintball Team is proud to announce they have signed a new sponsorship deal with Tippmann Sports and have declared the new Tippmann SO X7 paintball gun as the team's official marker. Tippmann’s line of markers has been the staple of paintball players for two decades with even more exciting ideas planned for the future. The YD is excited and honored to be chosen by Tippmann to help bring the Tippmann family of markers, including the recently released Tippmann SO X7 paintball gun, to even more paintball enthusiasts in 2008.

“This is a great day for both the YD and Tippmann”, says Brandon "Cyclops" Boucher, co-founder of the team. “We will use our style of milsim play combined with Tippmann’s famous brand of marker to elevate both organizations to new heights." He went on to say, "The new SO X7 is an amazing marker! I can't wait to rip up the field with this baby...my only problem is it's so customizable I just can't decide what mods to use, so I may just have to get them all!"

For more than 20 years, Tippmann Sports has been dedicated to quality manufacturing and the pursuit of cutting-edge technology and design. The company serves the paintball industry from its headquarters and manufacturing facility in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Tippmann Sports’ complete line of paintball markers and related accessories can be found at paintball stores and fields as well as mass retail and sporting goods outlets throughout the world.

The Yankee Division Paintball Team, a Massachusetts based scenario team, was founded in late 2002 by Brian "Teabag" Harvard and Brandon "Cyclops" Boucher. The team won their first MVT in 2007 at West Point's "Big Game" and haven't looked back. They followed that up with a Sportsmanship Award at Viper's Blanding game in May, and 2 more MVT's over the summer. You can visit the Yankee Division at their new website, Yankee Division Paintball.
