The '''2012 SAPC January Tournament''' was a five-player paintball event held on 15 January 2012 at [[Lock N Load Paintball]] on Nixon Road, near Auckland Airport, New Zealand. Organised by [[South Auckland Paintball Club]], it formed part of the [[2011–2012 SAPC Five-Man Series]].[1][2]

== Format ==
The January event was advertised with a hopper-plus-one paint allowance, permitting a hopper and one additional pod per player. A forum announcement on 9 January confirmed this format for the forthcoming weekend, replacing the hopper-only format originally advertised for the series.[1][3]

== Photographic coverage ==
Lock N Load published two photographic albums dated 15 January 2012. The main album was explicitly titled ''January 15, 2012 - SAPC 5 Man'', with a second collection titled ''January 15, 2012 #2''.[2][4]
