== History ==

=== 2010 season ===
The opening round was advertised for 6 and 7 March 2010 at Cyberjaya Sports Arena. Presented by Werdna Hol Sportz, it used a grass playing field and named Cyberjaya-TV as its official broadcaster.[1]

The opening programme offered Open v5.2 and Novice v3.2 categories. Novice eligibility was restricted to Division 4 players and below, with supplied markers specified for that category. Both divisions permitted tournament rosters of up to ten players.[1]

Four rounds have published results:[2][3][4][5]

|-

|}

The contemporary reports use both ''Ying Yang'' and ''Yin Yang''.[2][3][4][5]

The third round attracted ten Open teams and seventeen Novice teams. Its organiser's report described the preliminary prize-pool system and recorded Flankers and Ying Yang as the divisional winners.[4]

The fourth round took place on 23 and 24 October. Flankers won Open for a second consecutive round, while Ying Yang won Novice.[5]

See [[2010 Cyberjaya Paintball Championship League]] for the detailed season record.

=== WPPL-CPCL in 2011 ===
The competition was promoted under the WPPL-CPCL name in 2011. Its opening announcement identified Sports Arena Cyberjaya as the venue and retained the preliminary prize-pool system and one-on-one play-offs.[6]

The season's published results identify three categories: Open v5.2, Intermediate v4.2 and Novice v3.2.[8]

== Competition format ==

=== WERD format ===
An organiser's account identified Andrew Loh of Werdna Hol Sportz as the originator of the WERD format used by CPCL.[4] Published records identify v5.2 Open and v3.2 Novice categories in 2010, with a v4.2 Intermediate category also documented in 2011.[1][8]

=== Preliminary prize pool ===
Part of each team's registration fee contributed to a divisional prize pool distributed among the eight highest-ranked teams after the preliminary stage.[1][4]

{| class="wikitable"
! Preliminary position
! Share of divisional pool
|-
| 1 || 30%
|-
| 2 || 25%
|-
| 3 || 15%
|-
| 4 || 10%
|-
| 5–8 || 5% each
|}

At the third round in 2010, contributions of RM200 per Open team and RM100 per Novice team produced pools of RM2,000 and RM1,700 respectively.[4] The preliminary prize-pool system continued in 2011.[6]

=== One-on-one competition ===
Representatives of the top eight qualifying teams could enter a separate one-on-one knockout competition.[1][4]

In 2010, Republic CMX and Infidelz won the opening round's Open and Novice bonus competitions. Nemesis and Semarak Api A won the respective second-round competitions.[2][3]

Daniel of Flankers won the third-round Open competition. The organiser's report also identified him as the previous round's winner while playing for Nemesis. The third-round Novice bonus competition was cancelled because of insufficient time.[4]

Flankers and Ying Yang won the fourth-round bonus competitions.[5]

== Media coverage ==
Cyberjaya-TV was identified as the official broadcaster in 2010.[1] The 2011 announcement named Cyberjaya-TV and Cyberview Sdn Bhd as providing coverage, with edited tournament videos distributed through the Cyberjaya-TV website and YouTube.[6]

The third WPPL-CPCL round in July 2011 was also promoted with a live internet broadcast.[11]
