New Zealand tournament paintball team

Breakaballs, also written Break-a-balls, 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 during the 2007 series.[1][2][3][4][5]

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 on 25 February, scoring 410 points and finishing fourth in Division Two.[2]

In Round 2 on 25 March, the team scored 213 points and finished ninth in the combined round table. The provisional cumulative standings placed Breakaballs fifth in Division Two with 623 points.[3]

In Round 3 on 22 April, Breakaballs scored 420 points and finished seventh in the combined table. Its published cumulative total increased to 1,043 points.[4]

The recovered June results placed Breakaballs eighth among 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.[5]

The same cumulative total remained in the August standings, when the team was again absent from the round table.[6] These absences do not establish that Breakaballs had ceased competing or disbanded.

A roster post in the surviving 2007 series discussion included a Breakaballs heading but supplied no player names.[5] No verified roster or home location has been recovered.

Name

The forms Breakaballs and Break-a-balls refer to the same New Zealand team. The unhyphenated form is used as the article title because it is the form printed consistently in the recovered 2006 and 2007 results.
