The UW-Whitewater Paintball Club was established in 1999. Over the years the club has grown from only playing paintball in the woods to also playing a tournament style paintball known as speedball. With the new format being played and a continual growth in membership, the club has become more organized than ever. The Whitewater Paintball Club has been one of the top competitors in the nation for the last 5 years and intends to keep the legacy going. The Paintball Club won the AA National Championship in the spring of 2009 and is looking to win again in 2011/2012. As the season progresses the club now has earned the ranking of 4th best club in the nation and 3rd best team overall for the "A" squad.
