ABOUT THE SUPER 5 SERIES
The Super 5 Series is the Malaysial
Paintball League, the sole sanctioning body for all amateur and professional paintball players in Malaysia. It is a league,
where player representatives formulate league rules, make business decisions and sanction and preside over all aspects of
any Super5Series event. The Super5Series was the idea of Junaidi Kalil, the Founder/President and also Roslim Abu, the Tournament
Commissioner.
SUPER 5 SERIES MISSION STATEMENT
To become a governing
body of the sport of paintball, to ensure safe competitive play for our members and teams, and to support our players and
the paintball industry by showcasing paintball as a major sport with integrity and professionalism at the highest level.
SUPER 5 SERIES
Since the SUPER 5 SERIES considered sanctioning a
new 5 Man Series there has been much confusion and speculation as to what this means to the Teams and Players of the Malaysia's
largest paintball league.
The SUPER 5 SERIES is a non-political governing body responsible for sanctioning
quality paintball events and committed to growing the sport at all levels. We are also dedicated to improving and maintaining
the Sports integrity and professionalism.
Our goal is to create a positive environment which encourages new players
into the game and to provide all players and sponsors with a top quality flagship Paintball series with sound infrastructure
that delivers on its promises.
The further intention of the SUPER 5 SERIES is to legitimise tournament
paintball by maintaining a body of independent professional referees, whose sole purpose is to maintain and enforce the rules,
regulations and standards at all SUPER 5 SERIES events. The SUPER 5 SERIES has also developed
a sanctioning program with very strict guidelines to ensure that all event organisers adhere to the highest standards and
work progressively in tandem with the teams and industry as a whole.
The SUPER 5 SERIES is formatted
to globalise the game and make it more presentable to Television, outside sponsors and most importantly, spectators. 5-man
is a very strategic game, is easy to follow, fun to watch, and fits more easily into desirable venue allowing more impressive
locations to be explored.
We are focusing on cleaning up the game, employing trained, dedicated refs who follow the
series and adjudicate at every event. We cannot allow referee to be intimidated. They must have the knowledge and authority
to properly enforce the rules, specifically for cheating, foul language, physical altercation and threats, which have not
been properly addressed in the past.
The SUPER 5 SERIES is for everyone, teams, sponsors and industry
alike. A team can show up and use any product so long as they are safe and falls within the SUPER 5 SERIES
guidelines. Our doors are open; we are excited and looking forward to moving Paintball onwards. Over the past years tournament
paintball has grown in participation but the tournaments themselves have not kept pace with that growth.
The program will be backed up by trained Refs and Equipment Scrutineers that will be brought to each event,
instead of having to source referee at the location of each tournament and giving them rudimentary schooling.This has been the difficulty with the consistency of the Pro reffing since its inception and has been caused in no
small part by the lack of available funds required to finance the levels of expenditure needed to pay for the flights and
travelling expenses of the more experienced Pro Referee.
Good refs can be and have been found, but if these refs are
only used at their local event they do not gather the experience necessary to enforce the rules properly, and the whole process
must be repeated at the location of the next event with no guarantee of success.
