Created article on the opening event of the 2011 NZPPL Super 5 Man Series, using the original Tatum Park tournament announcement and contemporary newspaper confirmation of the April Levin-area round. Distinguished scheduled details from confirmed activity and added Horowhenua regional and 2010s categories.
 
Add TPC Blast's reported fourth-place finish from contemporary Bay of Plenty Times coverage; preserve the existing advertised programme and distinguish confirmed completion from scheduled details.
