=== Separation from PSP (2002) ===

During 2002, disagreements developed between the NPPL administration and [[Paintball Sports Promotions]] (PSP), the organisation responsible for promoting the league's major tournaments.

The disagreements concerned tournament sanctioning, financial arrangements, governance and the responsibilities of promoters and league officials.

The two organisations temporarily separated in May 2002 before reaching an agreement to complete the season together.

By the end of 2002, however, the NPPL and PSP had decided to establish separate national tournament programmes.[12]

On 12 November 2002, Hendsch resigned from his position as West Coast vice-president of sales and marketing at [[National Paintball Supply]] to concentrate on his responsibilities as NPPL president.[13]
