Editing Johor Paintball Association (section)

=== Malaysian Paintball Federation formation ===

In February 2010, Malaysian paintball organisers initiated a formal process to establish a national federation representing the sport.

The proposed federation was intended to bring together state associations, paintball clubs, referees, equipment suppliers, tournament organisers and commercial field operators.

Its objectives included formal sporting recognition, clearer regulations governing paintball equipment, common safety standards and grassroots development programmes.

A public hearing was held on 25 February 2010 at the National Sports Institute in Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur.

The hearing was organised in connection with Malaysia's Sports Commissioner's Office.

The federation's organisers invited representatives of paintball organisations from across Malaysia to participate.[1]
