The '''2015 PSP Nashville Open''' was a cancelled [[Paintball Sports Promotions]] (PSP) national paintball tournament scheduled for 1–3 May 2015 at Sharp Springs Natural Area in Smyrna, Tennessee, United States. It was intended to follow the [[2015 PSP Dallas Open]], but did not take place following the suspension of PSP's national season.[1][2][3]

== Scheduled venue and programme ==
The published venue was Sharp Springs Natural Area, 1000 Espey Drive, Smyrna. Although named the Nashville Open, the tournament was scheduled to take place in Smyrna rather than Nashville itself.[1]

The registration programme listed professional Champions and Challengers RaceTo-7, Division 1 and Division 2 RaceTo-5, Division 3 and Division 4 RaceTo-4, five-player RaceTo-2 and open pump competition.[1]

== Cancellation ==
On 1 May 2015, Paintball Media reported that PSP had apparently suspended its season, while the revived [[National Xball League]] announced a separate national tournament calendar.[2]

Boston Paintball subsequently confirmed that the Nashville event had not taken place. Its account described selecting and registering a team drawn from its Beast of the East programme, with players practising and arranging travel before the PSP event was abandoned.[3]

== Separate MSXL event ==
A separate tournament, recorded as the '''MSXL/PSP Affiliate Last Dance''', was held at Sharp Springs Natural Area on 2–3 May 2015. PBLeagues lists it under the [[Mid South X-Ball League]] rather than the PSP national series.[4]

That tournament had Division 2–4 X-Ball and Division 4–5 RaceTo-2 competitions, with published results. Those results belong to the MSXL event and are separate from the cancelled PSP Nashville Open.[4][5]
