Paintball is the worlds fastest growing sport!
Paintball is an exciting game of Tag and Capture the Flag
all rolled into one. There are many variations of the game,
where two teams attempt to cross terrain, capture their opponents
flag and return it to their own flag station without being
marked by a paint pellet. Each player is equipped with a pneumatic
marker that propels gelatin balls about the size of a bath
bead. These capsules are filled with a washable paint that
splatters upon impact.
The common presumption of non-players is that the sport
of paintball caters to the Rambo's of society, those people
with a paramilitary bent. Little do they know that Paintball
is a well organized, exciting and expanding sport. It is a
game and nothing more.
Safety is very important to us and we do have a perfect
safety record! You must be careful while running but the only
way a player can be seriously injured by playing paintball
is if he or she removes their goggles during play, or if a
player uses a marker in an unsafe manner. Our referee's are
there to ensure that everyone follows the safety rules. Any
infraction of the safety rules will result in immediate ejection
from the field. It is always Safety FIRST!
That's one of the most commonly asked questions. The answer
is, if you are wearing sensible clothing like a jacket or
thick layers then... usually no. If you get hit by a paintball
at close range on bare skin then expect a sharp sting, by
wearing the proper gear and clothing you minimize the chance
of that happening.
Everyone!! That is the great thing about paintball. It is
for men, women, children (that are at least 7), young and
old. Athlete's and non-athletes. There are no special skills
involved in playing, you don't have to be able to run fast,
make the perfect catch or be a certain height. You can just
be you, paintball is a game of strategy so anyone can be great!
