FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions)

What exactly is paintball?

Paintball is a game played with two teams firing non-staining, biodegradable paint balls, which burst on impact. When you're hit, you're eliminated from that game.

Games played vary from Speedball which is a mexican stand off but without the Mexicans, Capture the Ammo Dump, Attack the Village, Ambush the opposition in the Honey Trap, and Sup Air which is played on an open field with inflatable barricades.

Throughout the whole day our trained marshalls will ensure you play safely at all times and keep track of the team scores.
