reading & get to know the rules is the first thing to do in any sports.... it will make u play & enjoy the sports better without having any baseless & stupid disputes over something that's clearly stated in rulebook.

yup..usually there are two main type of tournament operator in malaysia. one is my-nppl and mpoc applies as mm rules. just like
Badman said on earlier post.
mm got rule book what zzub... hahah.... just scroll up and i think bukan u ka already post where you can download the rule books.

nppl rules is widely used in U.S and mm rules is use in Europe. Correct me if i m wrong.
Mr. Jun (Kepala ref on mm)

or Mr. Raja (MM) quite knowledgeable on mm rule.. and on nppl rule i thinks you can ask Mr. Wong (my-nppl tournament organiser) or Mr Reza (MPA) sorry if i forgot to mention nama orang lain.. just these are the ppl yang ada if any tournament ada.
Eh.. Who are the first batch of malaysian playing in d3 nppl u.s.a? dengar2 team jentayu ke? anybody know??

jun founded the MM few yrs ago, err.. raja who...? sorry,
maybe know the face but not the name...
most of the my-pro (npl refs), who are now lead by andy, were originally MM, came to the rescue when final npl lst year was 'abandon' by the refs then... they had to close down 1 field due to shortage of refs..
on who's more knowledgable in what rule, donno lah but IMO, all refs (including players) must get familliar with both rules (or whatever format played here) as there's no restriction on which game to ref by the marshals... the difference between the rules are not that big either... in fact u can see the npl refs using MS hand signals, but no biggie lah.. as long as player knows what it means..
1st malaysian team to play NPPL..? ntah.. but i heard that the team who won the azalina's cup last year get to play in huntington beach - what a waste of resource, IMHO...

....why dun't play nppl and mpoc.. hehehe.. ok what.. gained more experince... mpoc got international what... nppl got local.. hehehe..
wa... 2 days 2 go the final's...

tell that to the organisers la... u think teams don't wanna play both ah..? one of the main reason why the community seems to be splitting into 2 are the clashed dates of tourneys.. & whose fault izzit? well, everyone has their own version of how it happen...

paintball (esp speedball) in the country is still new, it is obvious some ppl are trying to be the so-called
champion in the sports development... & not forgetting the opportunist who don't really care how far the sports would last but try to gain as much benefit as they can from it while it last... sometimes it feels like there're more organisers/sellers than players within our small community... & not to mention the politics...!
each of the
industry players have their own set of pro&cons, just wish all parties can work together in the name of the sports....
