'''KC Damage''' was a New Zealand competitive [[paintball]] team associated with the Kāpiti Coast. The team competed in the [[New Zealand Paintball Players League]] (NZPPL) during 2013, winning the national championship tournament at [[Asylum Paintball]] in Auckland.[1][2]

The team was led by [[Jason Newport]], according to a contemporary report published in the ''Kāpiti Observer'' on 7 November 2013.[3]

== History ==

KC Damage competed in the 2013 NZPPL Super 5 Man Series, a three-round five-player tournament competition.

The league's original results archive documents the team's participation in the first two rounds, both held on the Kāpiti Coast.[1]

At [[2013 NZPPL Super 5 Man Event 1]], held on 9–10 March at El Rancho Holiday Park in Waikanae, KC Damage finished fifth in the Plate classification, corresponding to eleventh in the overall event standings.

The team improved at [[2013 NZPPL Super 5 Man Event 2]], held on 1–2 June at Adrenalin Paintball Sports in Paraparaumu. KC Damage finished second in the Cup behind X-Fighter$ Fracture, with Arachnidz third.[1]

Following the opening two rounds, KC Damage occupied sixth place in the published intermediate series standings.[1]

=== 2013 NZPPL Nationals ===

KC Damage won the [[2013 NZPPL Super 5 Man Event 3|2013 NZPPL Nationals]], held on 26–27 October at Asylum Paintball in Kingseat, Auckland.

A contemporary report in the ''Kāpiti Observer'' identified Jason Newport as leading the team and reported that KC Damage defeated [[Wellington Vendetta]] in the final.[3]

The leading tournament placings were subsequently confirmed by a Blacksheep Communications press release published on 16 March 2014.[2]
