NXL World Cup Trade Show, Vendor Row

By John Amodea
You can ' t really tell the story of the 2025 NXL World Cup without talking about the trade show / vendor village. This year ' s trade show was the busiest I have ever seen and I have been to all 36 World Cups, starting in New York in 1990. From the moment I crossed under the NXL ' s entry marque on the chilly Thursday of World Cup week, I could feel the vibe and energy was different. I digress.
Entering the grounds of the World Cup from the parking area on the right side the major vendors were Planet Eclipse and their massive setup and KORE
Outdoor and their litany of companies such as Empire Paintball, JT Paintball, Evil, Spyder Vforce and more. San Antonio X-Factor and ac: Diesel were tucked inbetween KORE and Dye Paintball.
Looking left as you entered you would find Violence, Tigerwear, and newcomers Paintball Royale and Elev-8 Products. Further ahead on the left is Aftershock, G1, Tammy Adamson ' s Paintball For A Purpose, Ballsack, Red Legion and Enemy of the State. As you make the left turn to go towards the NXL registration area and store, you would pass Committed Paintball, Punishers Paintball and Findlay
