Updated the existing Kamo Karzi article and consolidated the New Zealand variants Kamo Karzi, Kamo Kazi, Kamo Karzis, Kamokarzi, Kamo and KK under the same team identity. Removed the unsupported description of the team as Auckland-based. Retained the official formation history, 1997 league championship, Nationals results, Valhalla rankings and documented personnel. Added the team’s missing 2003 Queen’s Birthday appearance, the contemporary report of its disbandment after that event and the repor

=== Formation and early competition ===


The team's website, preserved in a snapshot dated 4 February 1998, states that Kamo Karzi formed around 1994 after users of two bulletin board systems organised a social paintball game. Regular social games subsequently provided a route for new members to join the team.[1]
Kamo Karzi's official website states that the team formed around 1994 after users of two bulletin-board systems organised a social paintball game. The team continued organising social games, through which several later members joined.[1]


Kamo Karzi's first tournament was the 1994 Winter League run by Tactics Paintball. The team received the Most Improved trophy but did not achieve a placing.[1]

In 1995, the team competed at the Taupō Nationals with support from RP Scherer and finished fourth. Its contemporary history states that five regular players, including the captain, subsequently left for another team. The remaining group spent approximately a year rebuilding. An original member known as Wolf became captain in 1995.[1]


The team subsequently lost five regular players, including its captain, to another team. Its website described a rebuilding period of approximately a year. Wolf, an original member from 1994, became captain in 1995.[1]
=== 1997 season ===
 
Kamo Karzi entered and won the Second Division of the National Paintball League in 1997 with support from Combat Vision.[1]
 
At the New Zealand Nationals on 25–26 October 1997 at Actions Paintball in Te Atatū, Kamo Karzi scored 818 points. It finished third overall and first in Division Two. Allan Gatland was identified as captain when he accepted the divisional trophy.[2]


=== 1997 season ===
The league championship and Nationals result were separate achievements. Kamo Karzi also finished third in the retrospectively compiled 1997 Valhalla rankings, with a ranking score of 74.[3]
 
=== 1998–2001 ===
 
The 1998 National Paintball League Division Two team list named Allan Gatland as manager of ''Kamo Karzi 2''. Separate results recorded 16 league points for ''Kamo Karzi #2'', without giving a final placing.[8][9]
 
At the 1998 New Zealand Nationals, Kamo Karzi finished eleventh with 435 points. The tournament report identifies the captain as ''Alan Gatland'', preserving that source's spelling.[10]


With sponsorship from Combat Vision, Kamo Karzi entered and won Division Two of the National Paintball League in 1997.[1]
Kamo Karzi supplied most of the referees for the 1999 Nationals instead of entering as a playing team. Marty Kinny was the head marshal.[11]


The team then finished third overall and first in Division Two at the two-day Auckland Nationals.[1]
At the 2000 Nationals, Kamo Karzi competed in the First Division, scoring 515 preliminary points and not advancing to the divisional finals.[12]


Kamo Karzi also placed third in the retrospectively compiled 1997 Valhalla rankings, with a score of 74. This ranking was separate from its Nationals result.[2]
At the 2001 Nationals, the team recorded 665 preliminary points and did not reach the finals. A player identified only as Dazz, described as formerly of Saints, received the second day's player award.[13]


=== 1998–2000 ===
=== 2002–2003 ===


Kamo Karzi ranked ninth in the 1998 Valhalla standings with 43 points, ninth in 1999 with 63 points and eighteenth in 2000 with 59 points.[3][4][5]
Kamo Karzi and Phantom provided referees for the 2002 Northland Open. The team was not listed among the eight playing entries.[14]


=== 2001 season ===
Kamo Karzi returned as a playing team at the 2003 Auckland Queen's Birthday Superball. It scored 341 points in the preliminary round and did not reach the four-team finals.[15]


In the seven-player Valhalla standings dated October 2001, Kamo Karzi ranked tenth with 111.4 cumulative points. Its recorded contributions were 63.9 points from the opening round of RotoVegas and 47.5 points from the opening round of the [[New Zealand Paintball Nationals]].[6]
The contemporary report described Kamo Karzi's final preliminary game, against Katipo, as its last tournament game as a cohesive team. It reported that the team was disbanding after approximately ten years because of player shortages and other commitments. Rob Maddox and Kerry Munro were identified as the remaining players seeking places with other teams.[15]


These figures were calculated for Valhalla ranking purposes rather than being the tournaments' raw game scores.[6][7]
The same report described the newly formed Raiderz, printed there as ''Raiders'', as being composed primarily of former Kamo Karzi players. This establishes a player connection but does not make Raiderz an alias or direct continuation of Kamo Karzi.[15]

=== Photographic identifications ===

The original caption tentatively identifies an Actions tournament at Takanini. In the comments, Andrew Walbran identifies the venue as Actions at Te Atatū North and suggests 1997–1998; James Keogan identifies the year as 1997. These are retrospective identifications.[8]
Rob Maddox's identification as the team's contact in a 2002 capture does not establish that he was captain at that time.[18]


The photograph was uploaded on 23 August 2011. This is its publication date, rather than the date it was taken.[8]
The sources disagree about Paul McKay's joining date: the official team page gives early 1997, while McKay's individual profile gives 1996. Both sources connect him with the 1997 campaign, but the exact joining date remains unresolved.[1][16]


== Sponsorship ==
== Team names and squads ==


The team's contemporary website records sponsorship from '''RP Scherer''' for the 1995 Taupo Nationals and '''Combat Vision''' for its 1997 National Paintball League campaign.[1]
New Zealand sources use several renderings of the team's name, including ''Kamo Karzi'', ''Kamo Kazi'', ''Kamo Karzis'', ''Kamokarzi'', ''Kamo'' and ''KK''. These are treated as spelling or shorthand variants of the same team when the New Zealand context is clear.


== Recorded tournament results ==
The entries ''Kamo Karzi 2'', ''Kamo Karzi #2'', ''Kamo Karzi Team One'' and ''Kamo Karzi Team Two'' identify event or league squads associated with Kamo Karzi rather than separate permanent team histories.[8][9]

Revision as of 05:12, 26 October 2026

Kamo Karzi, also recorded as Kamo Kazi, Kamo Karzis, Kamokarzi, Kamo and KK, was a New Zealand paintball team formed around 1994. The team combined social and tournament paintball, won the 1997 National Paintball League Second Division and finished third overall and first in Division Two at the 1997 New Zealand Paintball Nationals.[1][2]

Kamo Karzi competed in national events through 2003 and appeared in the Valhalla National Rankings for five consecutive seasons from 1997 to 2001.[3][4][5][6][7]

History

Formation and early competition

Kamo Karzi's official website states that the team formed around 1994 after users of two bulletin-board systems organised a social paintball game. The team continued organising social games, through which several later members joined.[1]

Its first recorded tournament was the 1994 Winter League organised by Tactics Paintball. Kamo Karzi received the Most Improved trophy but did not record a placing.[1]

In 1995, the team competed at the Taupō Nationals with support from RP Scherer and finished fourth. Its contemporary history states that five regular players, including the captain, subsequently left for another team. The remaining group spent approximately a year rebuilding. An original member known as Wolf became captain in 1995.[1]

1997 season

Kamo Karzi entered and won the Second Division of the National Paintball League in 1997 with support from Combat Vision.[1]

At the New Zealand Nationals on 25–26 October 1997 at Actions Paintball in Te Atatū, Kamo Karzi scored 818 points. It finished third overall and first in Division Two. Allan Gatland was identified as captain when he accepted the divisional trophy.[2]

The league championship and Nationals result were separate achievements. Kamo Karzi also finished third in the retrospectively compiled 1997 Valhalla rankings, with a ranking score of 74.[3]

1998–2001

The 1998 National Paintball League Division Two team list named Allan Gatland as manager of Kamo Karzi 2. Separate results recorded 16 league points for Kamo Karzi #2, without giving a final placing.[8][9]

At the 1998 New Zealand Nationals, Kamo Karzi finished eleventh with 435 points. The tournament report identifies the captain as Alan Gatland, preserving that source's spelling.[10]

Kamo Karzi supplied most of the referees for the 1999 Nationals instead of entering as a playing team. Marty Kinny was the head marshal.[11]

At the 2000 Nationals, Kamo Karzi competed in the First Division, scoring 515 preliminary points and not advancing to the divisional finals.[12]

At the 2001 Nationals, the team recorded 665 preliminary points and did not reach the finals. A player identified only as Dazz, described as formerly of Saints, received the second day's player award.[13]

2002–2003

Kamo Karzi and Phantom provided referees for the 2002 Northland Open. The team was not listed among the eight playing entries.[14]

Kamo Karzi returned as a playing team at the 2003 Auckland Queen's Birthday Superball. It scored 341 points in the preliminary round and did not reach the four-team finals.[15]

The contemporary report described Kamo Karzi's final preliminary game, against Katipo, as its last tournament game as a cohesive team. It reported that the team was disbanding after approximately ten years because of player shortages and other commitments. Rob Maddox and Kerry Munro were identified as the remaining players seeking places with other teams.[15]

The same report described the newly formed Raiderz, printed there as Raiders, as being composed primarily of former Kamo Karzi players. This establishes a player connection but does not make Raiderz an alias or direct continuation of Kamo Karzi.[15]

Members and team roles

Official 1998 team list

The team's archived website identified the following members. It explicitly described the list as incomplete, and it should not be treated as the roster for every event.[1]

Published name Documented involvement
Wolf Original member from 1994; captain from 1995
Psyg' / Rob Maddox Joined in 1994 after his previous team, The Goodies, broke up; team media contact
Quad Joined in 1995
Spider Team website records an early-1997 joining date; a separate profile identifies him as Paul “Spider” McKay and gives 1996
BJ Joined in early 1997 after attending a social game
Daemon Joined in late 1996
Hobbit Member from the team's formation; social player and tournament pit support
Frigg Team manager; joined in late 1995
Balder Joined in late 1995 and played tournament paintball

Other documented personnel

Name Documented association
Allan Gatland Captain at the 1997 Nationals; manager of Kamo Karzi 2 in 1998[2][8]
Paul “Spider” McKay Member who recalled joining in 1996 and playing in the 1997 league-winning campaign[16]
Jo Pitts Former Kamo Karzi member who subsequently played for Saints; previously associated with NSS[17]
Dazz Player at the 2001 Nationals; formerly of Saints[13]
Kerry Munro Identified with Rob Maddox as a remaining player when the team disbanded in 2003[15]

Rob Maddox's identification as the team's contact in a 2002 capture does not establish that he was captain at that time.[18]

The sources disagree about Paul McKay's joining date: the official team page gives early 1997, while McKay's individual profile gives 1996. Both sources connect him with the 1997 campaign, but the exact joining date remains unresolved.[1][16]

Team names and squads

New Zealand sources use several renderings of the team's name, including Kamo Karzi, Kamo Kazi, Kamo Karzis, Kamokarzi, Kamo and KK. These are treated as spelling or shorthand variants of the same team when the New Zealand context is clear.

The entries Kamo Karzi 2, Kamo Karzi #2, Kamo Karzi Team One and Kamo Karzi Team Two identify event or league squads associated with Kamo Karzi rather than separate permanent team histories.[8][9]

Tournament results

1995 Taupō Nationals 4th[1]
