Revision as of 11:26, 26 October 2026
Breakaballs was a New Zealand competitive paintball team documented in the Auckland Super 5s series during 2006 and 2007. The team finished tenth in Division Two of the 2006 Super 5s and recorded four scored appearances in the 2007 series.[1][2][3][4][5]
The spelling Break-a-balls has also been associated with the team. A contributor familiar with the New Zealand competition record identifies it as a spelling variant of Breakaballs rather than a separate team.
Tournament history
2006
Breakaballs competed in Division Two of the 2006 Super 5s. In the final round, reported on 4 December, the team scored 148 points and finished eleventh in the combined round table. The final Division Two standings placed Breakaballs tenth with 1,121 championship points.[1]
2007
Breakaballs opened the 2007 Super 5s season by scoring 410 points and finishing fourth in Division Two on 25 February.[2] In Round 2 on 25 March, the team scored 213 and finished ninth in the combined round table. The provisional cumulative standings placed it fifth in Division Two with 623 points.[3]
In Round 3 on 22 April, Breakaballs scored 420 and finished seventh in the combined table. Its published cumulative total increased to 1,043.[4]
The recovered June results placed Breakaballs eighth of twelve teams with 382 points. The later July cumulative table listed the team fifth in Division Two with 1,425 points, although Breakaballs did not appear in the July round results. The same total remained in the August cumulative standings, when the team was again absent from the round table.[5][6]
A roster post in the surviving 2007 series discussion included a Breakaballs heading but supplied no player names. No complete roster or confirmed home location has been recovered.[5]
