Frequently Asked Questions How many paintballs will I need? This varies from player to player and is very dependant on your style of play. We find that our recreational players use on average 400 paintballs per session. Having said this, some players will only use the initial 200 paintballs included in the players fee while others shoot through over 1000 paint balls in a session. To avoid disappointment we recommend you bank on buying another 200 paintballs. Better still, bring your credit card and let loose!!. What should I wear and bring along?

There's nothing like a big game with many players. Having said this, we'll make sure you have fun irrespective of how may friends you rustle up.

For example, if you want to secure a booking for 10 players, you need to pay a deposit of $100. Please note, we set aside a set of equipment for each $10 deposit paid. If you pay a $100 deposit (10 players) and 15 players show up, we cannot guarantee that we'll have equipment available for the 5 extra players.

The paint pellets break open upon impact, and generally cause very little pain. What pain is experienced is more of a stinging sensation from the pellet's impact. In our experience, the stinging pain goes away after a few seconds. Of course, the closer you are to the muzzle of the marker, the higher the velocity of the pellet when it hits you. Thus, more pain may be experienced when shot at close range rather than farther away. In general, one can count on coming off the field with a few welts from paintball impacts, but your most annoying injuries are more likely to be scrapes and bruises from the local terrain. Can I get the paint out of my clothes? Paint is water soluble and should wash out as normal. Is it safe?
