Editing Bulljoes (Australian Paintball Team)

'''Bulljoes''', also recorded as '''Bull Joes''', was an Australian tournament [[paintball]] team from New South Wales. The team reached the amateur finals of the [[1995 Rebel Tour]] and placed fourth in ''Australian Paintballer'''s national amateur rankings for that season.[1][2]

== Tournament history ==

=== 1995 Bushmasters Series ===

Bull Joes competed in the third round of the five-player Bushmasters Series at Brayton Paintball on 22 January 1995.[3]

Eight teams entered. The contemporary report stated that chronograph penalties affected Bull Joes' performance, and the team did not qualify for the four-team finals.[3]

=== 1995 Rebel Tour ===

Bulljoes competed in the seven-player Rebel Tour at Skirmish Adventures in Helensburgh on 2–3 December 1995. The team qualified for the four-team amateur finals with 285 preliminary points.[1]

Its concluding game against [[Bad Company (Australian Paintball Team)|Bad Company]] became decisive in the amateur championship. Bad Company initially appeared to have won, before a chronograph penalty temporarily placed Bulljoes ahead. A subsequent penalty against Bulljoes restored Bad Company's victory.[1]

The contemporary report does not provide Bulljoes' final tournament placing.[1]

=== National ranking ===

Bull Joes placed fourth in ''Australian Paintballer'''s national amateur rankings for the 1995 season, receiving 58.50 ranking points. The rankings identified the team as being from New South Wales.[2]
