2011 Thailand Paintball Official Circuit Leg 1
2011 Thailand Paintball Official Circuit Leg 1 was the opening round of the 2011 Thailand Paintball Official Circuit (TPOC), held in Bangkok, Thailand. The organiser reported 11 teams across two divisions.[5] Official standings published after the round placed Infernal first in Division 1 and Lakehill Arowana first in Division 2, each with 50 points.[1]
Organisation and location
The official TPOC website stated that planning for the 2011 circuit began early that year, with consultation from Patrick Tan and Benjamin Yaw. Its account described the opening round as having 11 teams across Divisions 1 and 2, both playing race-to formats.[5]
A film published by Benjamin Yaw on 27 April 2011 identifies the location as “Jarun Burapharat, Rama 9”. The description does not name the playing field.[2]
Yaw also published a teaser explicitly identifying the 2011 first leg on 22 April, followed by a final compilation on 27 April. These are publication dates; the exact playing dates remain unverified.[3][4]
Format
The official circuit website published the following formats for 2011.[6]
| Division | Format | Game time |
|---|---|---|
| Division 1 | Race to three | 10 minutes |
| Division 2 | Race to two | 7 minutes |
Both divisions permitted PSP or Millennium ramping at 13 balls per second. Division 2 teams could include a maximum of two Division 1 players.[6]
Rankings after the event
The PALS Thailand website published standings headed “TPOC Overall Rankings (after 1st leg)”, listing four teams in Division 1 and seven in Division 2. These are the series standings after the opening round, rather than separately published match results or final season standings.[1]
