Werdna Hol Cup
The Werdna Hol Cup (WHC) was a Malaysian three-player tournament paintball competition associated with Werdna Hol Sportz. Contemporary reports document competition in 2007 and an advertised event under the name Werdna Hol Cup v32 in 2009.[1][2][3]
Format
A June 2007 overview of Malaysian tournament paintball identified the Werdna Hol Cup as a three-player competition.[1]
In a retrospective account published in June 2009, Patrick Tan described running the three-player league and named Zealous, Warriors and Red Sevens among teams whose early tournament experience included the competition.[4]
2007 competition
A photographer's report published on 10 September confirmed coverage of both days of the third leg. A subsequent gallery post identified Kampung Ledang, Neighbours, Zombie Kg Pisang and Infinity among the photographed teams.[2][5]
The fourth leg was scheduled for 27–28 October. On 22 October, the organisers announced its postponement, proposing to combine it with the fifth leg on 24–25 November and award the overall championship at that event.[6]
| Event | Date | Documented status |
|---|---|---|
| Third leg | September 2007 | Held; contemporary photographic coverage survives.[2][5] |
| Fourth leg | 27–28 October 2007 | Postponed.[6] |
| Proposed combined fourth and fifth legs | 24–25 November 2007 | Announced as the season finale.[6] |
Advertised 2009 event
An October 2009 announcement promoted Werdna Hol Cup v32 at Tasik Idaman in Bangi. It advertised separate Amateur and Open weekends, with entry costing RM350 per team, including one box of paintballs.[3]

The announcement specified medals for the leading four teams in each division and an outdoor grass field with a 44-piece Sup'Air layout.[3]
