Editing 2006 PSP Texas Open

The '''2006 PSP Texas Open''' opened the 2006 [[Paintball Sports Promotions]] season from 16–19 February at Settler's Park in Round Rock, Texas. [[Philadelphia Americans]] won the professional [[National Xball League|NXL]] competition.[1][2]

== Competition changes ==
The NXL changed from a season-long league culminating in championship playoffs to a professional tournament division awarding prizes at individual events. Additional teams joined the existing franchises.[1]

Divisional X-Ball replaced double-elimination brackets with preliminary groups, guaranteeing teams more matches. PSP also introduced five-man X-Ball, replacing its traditional five-man format.[1]

== Professional competition ==
Philadelphia defeated Boston Red Legion 7–6 in the semi-finals, while Baltimore Trauma beat XSV 6–5. Philadelphia then defeated Trauma 6–5 in the championship match. Boston beat XSV 9–4 for third place.[1]
