Category:Paintball in Waikato

Paintball in Waikato is a collection of articles documenting the history and development of paintball throughout the Waikato region of New Zealand.

The category covers recreational paintball, competitive teams, commercial playing fields, tournaments, clubs, businesses and individuals associated with Waikato, from the early development of the sport through to the present.

The Waikato region, including Hamilton, Cambridge, Te Awamutu, Huntly and surrounding communities, has been part of New Zealand's wider recreational and competitive paintball scene. Local playing fields and community activities have provided opportunities for players to experience the sport, develop their skills and participate in competitions.

Articles document the teams, tournaments, venues, organisations and people who contributed to the development of paintball across Waikato, including connections with competitions and paintball communities in neighbouring regions.

Much of the region's early paintball history remains poorly documented. Smaller fields, local teams and informal competitions often operated without extensive published records, and information has been lost as businesses closed, websites disappeared and players moved on from the sport.

WikiPaintball aims to preserve these histories through tournament results, historical publications, photographs, archived websites and personal recollections, recognising both established organisations and the smaller local communities that helped develop and sustain paintball in Waikato.
