HomeLAN Fed has had the pleasure of interviewing the CPL's founder, Angel Munoz. They were also nice enough to post it on their site, so all us mortals could read it.
HomeLAN - What is the CPL's current policy concerning the age limit for playing "M" rated games at CPL tournaments and are you statified with that policy?I'm very unhappy about the age restrictions changes. I guess I won't be able to compete in the CPL for 2 more years! I don't think that CAL's age restrictions will matter, every one who is underage will just input a fake name/age. I'm sure many people do it already. If you're one of those people who just can't get enough of Angel, click here for the full interview.
Angel Munoz - Our current policy is that participants must be at least 17 years of age to participate in a CPL tournament. Participants who are 16 years of age by the first day of the CPL event are also allowed tournament participation, but must provide a signed consent agreement from a parent or legal guardian to enter a CPL tournament. Commencing in 2003 the 16 year old exemption will be finally dropped, less than 5% of our current tournament participants are 16 years of age.
The Cyberathlete Amateur League (www.caleague.com) has more flexible age policy and will maintain that flexibility for a few more years.
