Editing 2023 RAW NXL M800 Queensland Round 2

'''2023 RAW NXL M800 Queensland Round 2''' was a paintball tournament held on 29–30 July 2023 at [[Townsville Paintball]] in Alice River, Queensland. It was the second round of the Queensland RAW NXL M800 series organised by RAW All Stars. [[Top Hat Jokers (Australian Paintball Team)|Top Hat Jokers]] won, followed by Blungers, RAW and North Qld RAW.[1][2][3]

== Venue and format ==
The event was held at Townsville Paintball on Granitevale Road, Alice River. The advertised M800 format allotted 4,000 paintballs per team per round, with individual registration specifying 800 paintballs per player per round. The programme scheduled preliminary matches for Saturday 29 July and finals for Sunday 30 July.[2]

RAW All Stars described the event as supported by [[NXL Australia]] and governed by its rules. The organiser advertised qualification for the planned national finals for teams that competed in both Queensland rounds.[2]

== Scheduling ==
The RAW All Stars season calendar and the main event listing gave 29–30 July 2023. A duplicate registration page displayed 9–10 June in its date field, while its event description still scheduled preliminary matches for 29 July and finals for 30 July. The organiser published a field-layout notice on 25 July and reported the completed finals on 30 July.[1][2][3][4][5]
