'''Foo Fighters''' was a New Zealand tournament [[paintball]] team from Dunedin. The team is documented at the 2000 Dunedin City Challenge, where it finished fourth while competing with four players in a five-player format.[1]

== History ==

Foo Fighters competed at the Dunedin City Challenge, organised by The Ultimate Game Dunedin in November 2000. The five-player limited-paint tournament was played on a field containing pine trees and constructed barricades.[1]

The team entered with four players. The contemporary report states that it also lost more than 100 points through chronograph penalties.[1]

Foo Fighters scored five points in the morning round and 90 points in the afternoon round, finishing fourth. Damage Inc won the tournament, ahead of Southern Raiders and Hokonui HeadHunters, which competed under the shortened name Triple H.[1]

Foo Fighters was subsequently placed 36th in the combined 2000 [[Valhalla National Rankings]], with a ranking score of 11.5.[2] The ranking is a season calculation rather than a placing at an individual tournament.
