=== 2021 events ===
Arena’s published calendar listed three two-day tournaments during 2021:[2]

The Corkill Cup announcement described the event as a tribute to [[Steve Corkill]] and his sons for their contributions to paintball.[2]

=== Recurring race programme ===
Arena advertised a three-round five-player race series in 2022, with events in April, June and October.[2]

A further three-round calendar was published for 2023. A contemporary interview with [[Ralph Tsing]] documented the October event at Arena, identifying [[David Hopkins]] as its organiser. Tsing reported that Expendables won the tournament and overall series, with [[Ballistics Unit]] second at the October event and [[Phoenix Tahiti]] third.[3][5]

Paintball Direct subsequently advertised three-event programmes at Arena for both 2024 and 2025.[6][7] Feilding’s local events directory independently listed the 31 May–1 June 2025 tournament.[8]

The 2026 calendar scheduled rounds for 4–5 April, 11–12 July and 24–25 October.[2]
