2009 Australian X-Ball League
2009 Australian X-Ball League was a four-round season of the Australian X-Ball League, with all four events listed at Camden, New South Wales. Blitzkrieg won the Division 1 championship with 380 points, ahead of XF Destruction and Blade. XF Destruction won the opening round, while Blitzkrieg won the remaining three rounds.[1][2]
Events
[edit]The organiser's later calendar published the following dates and locations. Completed Division 1 results are recorded for every round.[1][2]
| Round | Published dates | Location | Division 1 winner |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | 28–29 March 2009 | Camden, New South Wales | XF Destruction |
| Round 2 | 27–28 June 2009 | Camden, New South Wales | Blitzkrieg |
| Round 3 | 29–30 August 2009 | Camden, New South Wales | Blitzkrieg |
| Round 4 | 17–18 October 2009 | Camden, New South Wales | Blitzkrieg |
An earlier announcement listed Round 4 for 10–11 October. The later calendar changed those dates to 17–18 October. It also identified Camden as the Round 3 location, which had initially been left to be announced.[2][3]
The later calendar retained incorrect “2008” headings for Rounds 3 and 4, although the page described the 2009 season and linked both entries to match draws labelled 2009.[2]
Division 1
[edit]Round placings
[edit]The organiser's final season standings recorded the following individual round placings.[1]
| Place | Round 1 | Round 2 | Round 3 | Round 4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | XF Destruction | Blitzkrieg | Blitzkrieg | Blitzkrieg |
| 2 | Blade | XF Destruction | Blade | XF Destruction |
| 3 | Carnivores Myth | XF Dedication | XF Destruction | Blade |
| 4 | Blitzkrieg | Blade | XF Dedication | XF Dedication |
| 5 | Apocalypse | Uprising | — | Uprising |
| 6 | Uprising | — | — | — |
| 7 | XF Dedication | — | — | — |
| 8 | Carnivores Legend | — | — | — |
A dash indicates that no placing is recorded in the surviving standings; it does not establish whether a team entered or withdrew.[1]
Season points
[edit]| Team | Round 1 | Round 2 | Round 3 | Round 4 | Published total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blitzkrieg | 80 | 100 | 100 | 100 | 380 |
| XF Destruction | 100 | 90 | 85 | 90 | 365 |
| Blade | 90 | 80 | 90 | 85 | 345 |
| XF Dedication | 60 | 85 | 80 | 80 | 305 |
| Uprising | 65 | 70 | — | 70 | 205 |
| Carnivores Myth | 85 | — | — | — | 85 |
| Apocalypse | 70 | — | — | — | 70 |
| Carnivores Legend | 55 | — | — | — | 55 |
The figures are series standings points, rather than match scores. Teams are arranged here by their published totals; the original table placed Apocalypse above Carnivores Myth despite their respective totals of 70 and 85.[1]
Blitzkrieg finished 15 points ahead of XF Destruction and was explicitly identified by the organiser as the season champion.[1]
Division 2
[edit]The surviving Round 2 draw scheduled Blade 2 and Carnivore Rage as Division 2 entries, with a separate divisional final.[4]
The Round 4 draw scheduled Division 2 competition involving Platinum, Blade Toys, Blade FTW, Blitz Grenadiers and Shenanigans.[5]
These draws document scheduled competition rather than completed scores. Division 2 round placings and final season standings have not yet been verified from the recovered sources.
