Editing Iran National Paintball League (section)

== Organisation and competition structure ==

Historical INPL notices and results were published by the [[Iran Paintball Association]]. The association administered entry requirements and published league schedules, rules and financial notices.[8][10][14][16]

Eight professional division teams were reported for the 2009 season.[7] Records from 1390 describe two men's divisions and a separate women's competition, while the initial 1393 programme provided for eight premier teams without an association-run Division 2 at that stage.[9][16]

The 2025 opening programme announced a closed men's premier division of eight teams and an open-entry second division. It provided for the bottom two premier teams to be relegated and the leading two second-division teams promoted at the end of the season.[19]

The programme specified five-player men's premier competition with a fifteen-minute limit and six-point mercy rule. The men's second division and women's competition were scheduled with ten-minute limits and four-point mercy rules.[19]

=== National-team selection ===

The September 2013 restart announcement proposed inviting leading league players to a national-team camp.[15]

The association's 2014 report described assessing players across the eight premier teams, inviting twenty to a camp and selecting ten for the national squad.[17]

The federation's October 2025 event report also described the technical committee identifying leading competitors for invitations to national-team training camps.[21]
