Singapore Paintball Novice Series (SPNS) 2009
Welcome to the SPNS!
Organized by the Paintball Association of Singapore (PBAS), SPNS
is the first and only official paintball tournament held in
Singapore. The tournament made its series debut in 2008 and has
attracted a total of 15 local-based paintball teams who took part in
the three-leg series.
In
2009, the SPNS will take on a new 4-on-4 format or 5-on-5 format.
Open for registration to all people residing in Singapore, the SPNS
will also be divided into four legs to be held in the months of
February, May, July and October (dates to be confirmed). Teams can
either choose to play in any leg or commit themselves to the entire
series in which they will accumulate championship points for the
Grand Champion award. Each team will comprise a six-player roster
with four first team players and two reserve players. Being a novice
tournament, this event will be evenly contested and provide a good
platform for participants to understand and appreciate the sport
better.
Says Jane Koh, President of the Paintball Association (Singapore)
and the Singapore representative in the Paintball Asia League Series
(PALS) that organized the World Cup Asia 2008, “Paintball is not
only an exhilarating sport to play; it is also one which is exciting
to watch. With this year’s new format, SPNS will be working towards
a proper M5 format in the future.”
The SPNS not only provides an opportunity for like-minded people to
come together and pit their paintball skills against each other, it
also allows local players to experience playing paintball in a
competition format. For the past year, the SPNS has been proven to
be a positive channel that helps both the public and paintball
enthusiasts to understand the sport better.
With a steady growing awareness of paintball as a lifestyle sports
through the tournament and community interaction, the SPNS will
continue to its aim to promote the sport actively, as well as serve
a good platform to improve and nurture the paintball standards in
Singapore.
