What to Expect when you get hit
Most people that have not played Paintball before have no idea what to expect. The most common question is "does it hurt when you get hit?" If a paintball hits you fired from close range (20 feet or less) it does sting a bit. We are a extremely family oriented facility and set up for families and kids. We do not allow people to get shot at a close distance and in the beginner games the pressure on the paintball marker is set a lower setting. Most people tell you that after the first time you've been hit it rarely is an issue.

What is the game of Paintball
Well, combine the game of capture the flag with chess, mix in hide 'n' seek and add a large dose of adrenaline. Paintball is challenging and fast-paced. As few as two or as many as eighty can play. Each team starts at its own flag station. A starting signal is given and each team tries to reach the other team¹s station, grab the flag and race back to its station. When a player gets tagged hit by a paintball he/she is out of the game. If a player is carrying a flag when tagged, he/she must drop the flag at that spot, then leave the game. Elimination is a popular game as well this is simply where one team eliminates the other and who ever does it the fastest wins the game.
Playing fields
Playing fields vary in terrain and in management. Some fields have fixed stations and play areas for simple operation. Others rotate stations or change play direction every week. Speedball like it or not is where the sport is headed. This is a fast pace extremely strategic game that is played on a variety of fields. Most common is air ball which has a variety of obstacles.
