'''2008 Australian X-Ball League Round 1''' was the opening tournament of the [[2008 Australian X-Ball League]], held at Canning Vale in Perth, Western Australia. WASP Blue won Division 1 ahead of WASP Gold and Xtreme, while Blitzkrieg won Division 2.[1][2][3]

| Divisions || Division 1 and Division 2
|}

== Dates ==
The organiser's archived event calendar listed Round 1 at Canning Vale for “April 29–30”. These published dates have not been independently corroborated. The calendar's accompanying report and the subsequent standings confirm that the tournament took place.[1][2]

== Results ==
=== Division 1 ===
The following eight placings and points appear consistently in the organiser's July 2008 ladder and final Division 1 season standings.[2][3]

{| class="wikitable"
! Place !! Team !! Round points
|-
| 1 || WASP Blue || 100
|-
| 2 || WASP Gold || 90
|-
| 3 || Xtreme || 85
|-
| 4 || Geelong Extreme || 80
|-
| 5 || XF Destruction || 70
|-
| 6 || XF Dedication || 65
|-
| 7 || Carnivore Legends || 60
|-
| 8 || WASP Black || 55
|}

The July ladder additionally listed Carnivore Myth ninth with 50 points, without identifying separate divisions. The final standings instead recorded Carnivore Myth third in Division 2 with 85 points and omitted the earlier ninth-place entry. The conflicting entry is therefore not included in the Division 1 table above.[2][3]

=== Division 2 ===
The organiser's final Division 2 standings recorded the following Round 1 results.[3]

{| class="wikitable"
! Place !! Team !! Round points
|-
| 1 || Blitzkrieg || 100
|-
| 2 || Rage City || 90
|-
| 3 || Carnivore Myth || 85
|}

The points shown are series standings points, rather than individual match scores.[2][3]
