New page

'''2020 Australian Super 7s Round 2''', named the '''DLX Technologies Cup''', was a cancelled event in the [[2020 Australian Super 7s]]. Professional, semi-professional, amateur and novice competition had been scheduled for May 2020 at [[Action Paintball Games]] in Rouse Hill, New South Wales. The organiser cancelled the event because of COVID-19 travel restrictions and uncertainty surrounding restrictions on sporting events.[1][2][3]

== Scheduled dates and venue ==
The published calendar listed the following dates. These were scheduled dates, not dates of completed competition.[1]

{| class="wikitable"

The cancellation announcement identified Action Paintball Games in Sydney as the intended venue. The contemporary series contact page listed the venue at 290 Annangrove Road, Rouse Hill.[2][3]

== Cancellation ==
In an announcement headed “2020 Super 7s DLX Technologies Cup Cancelled”, series promoter Michael Whybrew cited Australia's two-week quarantine requirement for international arrivals and uncertainty about further government restrictions on sporting events and public gatherings.[2]

The announcement also highlighted the effect on New Zealand competitors, including Expendables, Rebel Unit and Immortal Knights, and the risk of domestic flight cancellations. The organiser stated that cancelling in advance would help prevent competitors from booking travel and accommodation for an event that might subsequently be unable to proceed.[2]

Rescheduling between the Planet Eclipse Open and the Paintballshop.com Australian Masters was discussed as a possibility. However, the announcement did not confirm a replacement date.[2]

== Results ==
The archived official 2020 results contain no DLX Cup ranking points for the professional, semi-professional, amateur or novice divisions. Each division's recorded season total comprises its HK Army Classic points from [[2020 Australian Super 7s Round 1|Round 1]] only.[4]

No completed replacement event or Round 2 results are established by these records. The event is therefore documented here as cancelled, with its original schedule distinguished from completed competition.[2][4]
