The Staff
The Game Manager will be responsible for ensuring the smooth running of the day and any problems or questions should be referred to him.
Each paintballing team will have experienced Marshals with them on the field and their functions are to ensure that the rules are adhered to, to guide paintballing players around the site, give tactical advice and act as referees in deciding who is marked and out of the game. If you disagree with with their decision bear in mind that they are assessing the facts as they see them and any further points should be raised with the Game Manager.
The Inferno Field
This is our standard semi-automatic paintball marker.
You will be issued with one of these and a hopper that holds 200 paintballs more than enough for any game.
The Goggle System
All paintballing players are issued with protective headgear comprising full face mask and snood. The mask protects the face, eyes and ears whilst the snood covers the remiander of the head and neck. Safety is our highest concern therefore players must wear this equipment at all times on the field of play.
Paintballs
Small paint filled gelatin-shelled balls.
These are what the marker fires at your opponents. The brittle shell breaks on impact with your target, leaving the paint fill to mark, indicating that they are out of the game.
