== Organisation ==
MacDev's event page announced Fox Studios as the venue for the second AXL event of 2005 and scheduled competition for 7–8 May.[1]

In a Bill's Paintball forum announcement dated 2 February 2005, “James” stated that the event's dates had been changed to accommodate visiting American players and the venue. The post linked to MacDev's event page.[4]

A Baltimore Trauma clinic was initially advertised for 6 May. The archived event page subsequently stated that the clinic had been cancelled because of insufficient support. This cancellation concerned the clinic, rather than the tournament.[1]

== Results ==
Wellington Hybrid's contemporary photographic archive identifies the team as the round winner. A photograph credited to Matt Wong, taken on 8 May and uploaded on 18 May 2005, records that Hybrid's first-place finish also put it into the series lead.[2][3]
