Editing 2008 Malaysian Super7 Championship

The '''2008 Malaysian Super7 Championship''', promoted as '''Malaysian Super7 '08''', was a seven-player paintball tournament held on 30–31 August 2008 at the [[Malaysian Paintball Academy (MAPAAC)]] in Petaling Jaya, Selangor, [[Malaysia]]. It was presented by [[Nemesis Paintball Club]] as an official feeder event for the [[Malaysian National Paintball League]].[1]

Nemesis Legion won Division 1. Lemon Ruski, RAZ Legion and Romeoz won Divisions 2, 3 and 4 respectively.[2]

== Organisation ==
MY-NPL headquarters and Nemesis Paintball Club announced the tournament in conjunction with Malaysia's 51st Independence Day celebrations.[1]

Field walking and a captains' meeting were scheduled for 29 August, followed by competition on 30 and 31 August. The venue was MAPAAC at Kompleks Sukan Astaka, Petaling Jaya.[1]

== Advertised format ==
Teams could register nine active players and field a maximum of seven in each game.[1]

The announcement advertised Open, Amateur and Novice categories. Amateur rosters could include a maximum of two Division 1 players, while Novice competition was restricted to Malaysian Division 3 and Division 4 teams, excluding Division 1 and Division 2 players.[1]

The published results used four numbered divisions. The surviving announcement and results do not explain the difference between the advertised categories and final divisional labels.[1][2]

''Villain Paintball'' published the following final placings on 2 September 2008.[2]

== Distinction from other events ==
An earlier MY-NPL Super7 tournament was originally advertised for 30 December 2007. Its announcement was subsequently updated to state that it had been postponed to 6 January 2008.[3] It was a separate advertised event from the August championship.

The August tournament should also be distinguished from the [[International Super Seven Championship]], first held in 2009.
