Sport for All Bulgaria is a Bulgarian sporting organisation listed in the membership directory of the United Paintball Federation (UPBF), the international governing organisation for competitive paintball.[1]

The organisation is associated with Bulgaria's representation within the UPBF's international federation structure.

UPBF affiliation

Sport for All Bulgaria is listed in the UPBF's official member organisation directory.[1]

The UPBF recognises national organisations involved in administering paintball and representing their countries in international competition. Its membership framework distinguishes between recognised national representatives, provisional members and supporting organisations.[2]

The precise membership category, date of admission and leadership of Sport for All Bulgaria have not been independently established.

International competition

Bulgaria has participated in several editions of the UPBF Paintball World Championship.

The UPBF's review of its 2023 championship identifies Bulgaria among the participating countries.[3]

Bulgaria subsequently returned to the UPBF World Championship held at ACE Paintball in Dreux, France, on 2–3 September 2026, following an absence from recent editions.[4]

The 2026 Bulgarian entry included a team competing in the Veterans category.[5]

The available sources do not independently establish the extent of Sport for All Bulgaria's involvement in selecting, financing or administering these national teams.

Organisational identity

The precise legal identity and founding date of Sport for All Bulgaria have not been established from available public records.

Bulgaria also has a multi-sport organisation named the Bulgarian Sport for All Federation (Българска федерация спорт за всички). However, the available documentation does not establish that it is the same organisation listed in the UPBF directory.
