History
[edit]According to the team's published history, 3nity formed in late 2007 when three friends entered a tournament organised by Penampang Paintball Point. The team finished second on its competitive debut.[1]
In early 2008, 3nity entered the Kota Kinabalu Open three-player tournament alongside a second squad, 3nity BL8. The team's account records that 3nity won the tournament and 3nity BL8 finished second.[1]
The two squads subsequently combined to compete at the 2008 Terengganu Open. The team reported finishing sixth among 14 Open division entries in its first tournament outside Sabah.[1]
