About Paintball

Paintball is a fun, competitive game that can be played with as little as 2 people or several hundred. It is a great way to get out and enjoy the outdoors with your family and friends. If you don't mind getting wet, paintball can even be played in the rain. Rain or shine, you're going to get splattered with paintballs.

There are two main types of paintball play. Rec-ball which is short for recreational paintball play and Tournament Play,which is hard core competition. Recreational paintball is for the fun of it, tournament play usually has cash prizes.

There are many types of games you can play with paintball. They all involve "us against them" and it is a high stakes version of hide and seek and when you're found, you're getting painted! There are games where you can hide and ambush your opponents, run and shoot, steal the flag, or find and capture an object the other team is guarding while protecting your own.

There are paintball fields indoors and outdoors, depending on what your preferences are. And if you are new in town and looking for a new group of friends to play paintball with, many of the fields offer "Build a Team" where single people or small groups are placed together to play paintball against one another.

Paintball requires specific equipment. You shoot at your opponents and get shot at. You run in dense brush and also some paintball fields have cement bunkers to play in. Dress appropriately for each scenario. If you are not sure what the terrain is like, just call and ask. You will also need goggles, a gun/marker, pressurized gas, and paintballs.

Every game you play is different and you will learn new techniques for shooting and avoiding being hit by paintballs every time you play!
