The World Cup Asia 2008 (WCA 2008) signifies the coming of age for paintball in Asia. It is the final leg of the PALS (Paintball-Asia League Series) and will see the crowning of the series champions.
It will be the first time that an Asian tourney strives to surpass the 100 teams mark as well as to boldly launch a division solely for ladies. In keeping with the spirit of it's predecessors, the Nation Cup 2004, APPC 2005, WCA 2006, WCA 2007. The WCA 2008 will strive to give the sport the fundamental aura of a mainstream sport.
Our theme for APPC 2005 was "You are my VIP" , WCA 2006 "Asia In Harmony", WCA 2007 "The Party Has Arrived" as a reflection of the spirit on which the PAL Series is built on ..friendship. WCA 2008 will see a new theme, to be announced shortly...
