Datis Girls (Iran Paintball Team)
Datis Girls is an Iranian women's tournament paintball team associated with Tehran and the wider Datis organisation. The team won the Iranian women's championship for the Iranian calendar year 1390 (2011–2012) and competed at Paintball World Cup Asia in 2012 and 2013.[1][2]
History
Iranian women's championship
Datis Girls was documented as the women's team within the Datis organisation by February 2012.[1]
On 27 February 2012, Planet Eclipse reported that Datis Girls had won the women's cup and been crowned women's champions for the Iranian calendar year 1390. The report described an INPL event involving 26 teams across three divisions, including a dedicated women's bracket. The 26-team total covered the combined event rather than the women's competition alone.[1]
At the same event, the Datis first team secured the overall INPL championship, while the associated Diako team won Division 2 and promotion to Division 1.[1]
World Cup Asia 2012
Datis Girls competed at World Cup Asia in Langkawi, Malaysia, from 9 to 11 November 2012. The team entered Division 3 and finished 44th among 46 teams, receiving 14 ranking points.[2]
World Cup Asia 2013
The team returned to Langkawi for the NAZA World Cup Asia tournament held from 15 to 17 November 2013. Datis Girls finished 25th among 54 Division 3 teams.[2]
The competition's match records document five preliminary games in the Division 3 Race-to-2 format. Datis Girls recorded three victories and two defeats:[3]
