Editing 2024 INPL season

The '''2024 INPL season''' was the [[Iran National Paintball League]] season for the Iranian calendar year 1403. Three rounds were held in Bandar Abbas, Rasht and Mashhad. [[Datis (Iran Paintball Team)|Datis Tehran]] won the men's premier division with 300 points, while Singo Bandar won the men's second division with 285 points.[1]

The league confirmed in February 2025 that the season had ended after three rounds because suitable tournament paintballs were unavailable. The proposed fourth round was not held.[1]

== Season programme ==

The competition included men's premier and second divisions, a women's professional electronic competition and men's individual rankings. Reports from each completed round recorded sixteen men's teams and five women's teams.[2][3][4]
