Editing Almost Famous Paintball League (section)

== Playing formats ==
AFPL has offered several formats and player divisions. At the 2016 Havoc opening event in Hollister, California, the programme included Division 4 RaceTo-3, Division 5 RaceTo-2 and a separate three-player Redzone competition.[2]

The AFPL3 series provided three-player tournament competition. Its July 2018 event at Jungle Island Paintball Park offered Division 4 RaceTo-3 matches and Division 5 RaceTo-2 matches, with different match-time limits for each division.[5]

=== Redzone ===
Redzone is an alternative format developed by AFPL in 2013, according to a retrospective account published by ARC Airsports. It uses a buzzer at the centre of the field as a scoring objective, with a successful activation worth two points. The central objective gives teams an additional reason to advance and contest the middle of the field.[6]

AFPL incorporated Redzone alongside its other tournament formats. The announced programme for the 2015 Cancún event included an open-class five-player Redzone division, while the 2016 Havoc event listed a three-player version.[2][4]
