Skuad kebangsaan dibentuk daripada belia menerusi pelbagai kejohanan paintball

BUAT pertama kali dalam sejarah sukan paintball rantau ini, Promaster Malaysia (PM) bakal menampilkan 20 pasukan profesional terbaik dunia untuk bersaing merebut hadiah wang tunai RM300,000 dan Piala Pusingan Duli Yang Maha Mulia (DYMM) Sultan Ahmad Shah.

Kejohanan Paintball Promaster Dunia 2011 (KPPWC) anjuran Spanium Sdn Bhd dengan kerjasama Kementerian Belia dan Sukan Malaysia (KBSM) dan kerajaan negeri Pahang itu dijadualkan berlangsung di Pekan, 6-11 Disember depan dan disertai pasukan profesional dari United Kingdom, Amerika Syarikat, Australia, Russia, Hungary dan Jerman selain pasukan kebangsaan.

Satu lagi pasukan kebangsaan akan menyertai kategori Amatur yang membabitkan 19 pasukan Asia lain untuk merebut hadiah RM100,000.

Pasukan kebangsaan akan dibentuk daripada kalangan belia menerusi pelbagai kejohanan paintball di negara ini termasuk aktiviti paintball Rakan Muda.

Menteri Belia dan Sukan, Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek berkata, kejohanan itu diharapkan memberikan pengalaman berguna untuk menyaingi pasukan berpengalaman dunia.

“Kementerian berasa perlu menyokong kejohanan seumpama ini kerana ia bukan saja sukan ekstrim yang semakin digemari golongan muda, malah mampu menjadi industri dan menjana peluang perniagaan besar kerana ia membabitkan kos sehingga RM5,000 setiap peserta.

“Seperti golf dan bowling, paintball yang kini menjangkau pembabitan hampir 15,000 pemain dijangka terus berkembang kepada 100,000 peserta yang bergerak secara rombongan bertanding di dalam pelbagai cabaran dan cuaca berbeza di seluruh dunia,” katanya selepas melancarkan Kejohanan Paintball Promaster World Championship 2011 dan memperkenalkan maskot KPPWC, Robot Neo, semalam.

Turut hadir, Pengerusi Spanium, Kamaruddin Endut dan Presiden KPPWC, Datuk Noreta Bustanuddin.

Buat julung kali juga, KPPWC mengadakan pertandingan sampingan untuk peminat dan pemain paintball taktikal dikenali sebagai Woodsball.

Sementara itu, Noreta berkata, KPPWC bekerjasama dengan NPPL USA dan World Union Paintball bagi memastikan kejohanan berkenaan mendapat liputan meluas seluruh dunia.

KUALA LUMPUR, July 18 (Bernama) -- Twenty teams, including 17 professional teams from abroad, will battle it out in the 2011 Paintball Promaster World Championships in Pekan, Pahang starting Dec 6.

Organising Committee chairman Datuk Noreta Bustanuddin said the six-day tournament offers cash prizes worth RM300,000 in the professional category and RM100,000 for amateurs.

"So far 10 of the best teams in the world have confirmed their participation in the championships," she told reporters here Monday.

Noreta said the countries that will be competing in the professional category are England, United States, Russia, Australia, Hungary and Germany while 20 of the best teams in Malaysia and Asia will take part in the amateur category.

She said the tournament would give exposure and opportunity for local teams to gain experience when competing or watching the international teams in the competition.
