Magpies (New Zealand Paintball Team)
Magpies was a New Zealand tournament paintball team documented in the 1998 SplatMan/National Paintball League Division Two competition. The published league results credited Magpies with 22 points and equal second place.[1][2]
History
[edit]Magpies was one of twelve teams listed for the 1998 SplatMan Division Two League. Contemporary league information identified Ken Ellis as the team's manager.[1]
The competition used centre-flag matches played over two ten-minute ends. Fixtures were scheduled at venues including Actions Paintball, Splatman Beachlands, Splatman Silverdale, Splatman Favona Road and Strategy Tag.[1]
A separately preserved league results page credited Magpies with 22 points and equal second place alongside Katipo Venom. Black Dragon was listed first with 24 points.[2] The surviving results page does not state when it was last updated or confirm that every scheduled fixture was completed, so the result represents the published league standings rather than an independently verified final season table.
