Editing 2009 Australian X-Ball League

'''2009 Australian X-Ball League''' was a four-round season of the [[Australian X-Ball League]], with all four events listed at Camden, New South Wales. Blitzkrieg won the Division 1 championship with 380 points, ahead of XF Destruction and Blade. XF Destruction won the opening round, while Blitzkrieg won the remaining three rounds.[1][2]

== Events ==
The organiser's later calendar published the following dates and locations. Completed Division 1 results are recorded for every round.[1][2]

An earlier announcement listed Round 4 for 10–11 October. The later calendar changed those dates to 17–18 October. It also identified Camden as the Round 3 location, which had initially been left to be announced.[2][3]

The later calendar retained incorrect “2008” headings for Rounds 3 and 4, although the page described the 2009 season and linked both entries to match draws labelled 2009.[2]

== Division 1 ==
=== Round placings ===
The organiser's final season standings recorded the following individual round placings.[1]

{| class="wikitable"
! Place !! Round 1 !! Round 2 !! Round 3 !! Round 4
|-
| 1 || XF Destruction || Blitzkrieg || Blitzkrieg || Blitzkrieg
|-
| 2 || Blade || XF Destruction || Blade || XF Destruction
|-
| 3 || Carnivores Myth || XF Dedication || XF Destruction || Blade
|-
| 4 || Blitzkrieg || Blade || XF Dedication || XF Dedication
|-
| 5 || Apocalypse || Uprising || — || Uprising
|-
| 6 || Uprising || — || — || —
|-
| 7 || XF Dedication || — || — || —
|-
| 8 || Carnivores Legend || — || — || —
|}

A dash indicates that no placing is recorded in the surviving standings; it does not establish whether a team entered or withdrew.[1]

=== Season points ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Team !! Round 1 !! Round 2 !! Round 3 !! Round 4 !! Published total
|-
| Blitzkrieg || 80 || 100 || 100 || 100 || 380
|-
| XF Destruction || 100 || 90 || 85 || 90 || 365
|-
| Blade || 90 || 80 || 90 || 85 || 345
|-
| XF Dedication || 60 || 85 || 80 || 80 || 305
|-
| Uprising || 65 || 70 || — || 70 || 205
|-
| Carnivores Myth || 85 || — || — || — || 85
|-
| Apocalypse || 70 || — || — || — || 70
|-
| Carnivores Legend || 55 || — || — || — || 55
|}

The figures are series standings points, rather than match scores. Teams are arranged here by their published totals; the original table placed Apocalypse above Carnivores Myth despite their respective totals of 70 and 85.[1]

Blitzkrieg finished 15 points ahead of XF Destruction and was explicitly identified by the organiser as the season champion.[1]

== Division 2 ==
The surviving Round 2 draw scheduled Blade 2 and Carnivore Rage as Division 2 entries, with a separate divisional final.[4]

The Round 4 draw scheduled Division 2 competition involving Platinum, Blade Toys, Blade FTW, Blitz Grenadiers and Shenanigans.[5]

These draws document scheduled competition rather than completed scores. Division 2 round placings and final season standings have not yet been verified from the recovered sources.
