A few of us are heading to Red Dynasty on Saturday nite to get certified to play without the sissyfied centreline in the speedball field. Below is a blurb from SPNS on the BTO.
The SPNS Basic Tournament Orientation (BTO) is designed to ensure that all participants at Red Dynasty Paintball Park are competent to play competitive paintball. The course will be conducted by the Paintball Association of Singapore (PBAS). In this course, participants will learn about paintball safety and how to handle the marker in order to ensure a safe playing environment for everyone. After the theory lesson, participants will be required to undergo a practical test. Only after passing this practical test would they be allowed to play in the SPNS and train w/o a centre line.
I think it's prolly a good idea especially for people new to the sport but I find it a little strange that it's not a requirement at any another paintball places TD used to play at. Just wondering whether foreigners who are used to playing paintball in their own respective country would bother going something like this if they wanted to take part in the SPNS.
Will this be a requirement for any tournament organised in Singapore? Will find out more on Saturday and update here.
