With the formation of the Singapore Paintball Series, a new life has been injected to revive the refereeing body in Singapore.
The SPS Referees body was officially established in October 2010 to oversee the development of competitive paintball refereeing for tournament organized by the Singapore Paintball Series. Since the introduction of competitive paintball (commonly known as speedball) in 2008, the community of regular competitive players has taken a progressive increment year after year. With an increase pool of play
ers and improve playing standards, it is inevitable that a pool of referees must be established to administer rules and regulations of competitive paintball. The Basic Marshal Orientation (BMO) was first introduced to the paintball community in 2008 providing a platform for paintball players to better understand the rules and regulations of the game. The first batch of BMO referees were tasked to officiate in the 2nd Leg of the Singapore Paintball Novice Series (SPNS) which was a 3-on-3 speedball tournament held in Red Dynasty Paintball Park. However, due to the lack of paintball games exposures in the local tournament scene and a change of management committee in the Paintball Association (Singapore), the BMO referees were disbanded in 2009. Collaborating with established organizations such as the Asia Pacific Paintball Federation (APPBF), the Paintball Asia League Series (PALS), the Malaysia Marshals (MM) and the AsiaRef, the Singapore Paintball Series hopes to establish a consistent and impartial refereeing body for the local paintball scene in accordance to international refereeing standards.
