Paintball is one of the rapidly growing sports in the Philippines. Filipino enthusiasts recognize that this kind of sport is perfectly fitted for them as this does not require height as much as other sports do, it intrinsically rely on stealth and speed. Smaller players do have a competitive advantage over the ones with bigger stature for smaller players are quicker and harder to spot. As a matter of fact, the Philippine paintball team have won top awards in the 2004 Asian Cup and the 2005 Asian Pacific Paintball Amateur Championship.
