    DC/MD/VA FSPA pinball leagues

    =====================================

    The Free State Pinball Association (FSPA) is in its 15th year of running pinball leagues in the Maryland/DC/Virginia area.

    How to Join: http://www.fspazone.org/howtojoin.html

    We have 3 different leagues - A recently formed league in College Park, MD, one in Northern VA and one outside of Baltimore, MD. Fun is emphasized over competition, but we get plenty of both. League nights consist of group play on 4 machines chosen from the 6-10 machines on location. Each league has a 10-week season schedule, followed by a playoff night. Both leagues get together for a season-ending PARTY which is terrific. PRIZES are awarded to playoff winners and everybody who participates in the season gets a chance at the FREE PINBALL MACHINE GIVEAWAY. This year we plan to give away a 1994 Williams Demolition Man (http://ipdb.org/search.pl?id=662)

    We also welcome "GUEST PLAYERS" if you want to stop in and check out the action mid-season. But now is the best time to come by, join up and play a full season. We have provisions that allow a player to skip or "pre-play" a week if your schedule occasionally does not permit, but we prefer live-play as it is much more social and fun.

    If you would like to join us, reply to this thread, email us at fspa-exec AT fspazone DOT org, or just stop on by one of our league locations for week 1 (or better yet on "week 0" for our informal meet, greet and practice). See the website for copies of our player's guide (rules), to subscribe to our email discussion/announcements and to find out more about each league location.

    There are a variety of reasons to play league pinball. Some do it for the competition, for some it's purely social, some people just want to meet local pinheads/collectors and play a few games. The FSPA has all levels of players in its leagues, from outright beginners to world class players but manages to keep things fun with our format that generally keeps you competing with players of your own skill level. Dues are $4 each week plus $2 coin drop to cover your 4 league "matches".

    You know you're going to have The Mutants coming down from Brooklyn to play as well, right? Some BIG names in that crowd!

    I wish you guys were closer. Then again, not getting my ass kicked might be a good thing.
