When hit with a paintball, Make sure the paint capsule breaks. BUT if you call yourself hit, You are out of the game weather you are hit or not. Also, Remember the kill zones that were, or will be explained during the Gun Safety Lecture. Don t be afraid to communicate with your TeamMates. Once the shooting starts, everyone knows where you are anyway.
Communication is one of the key points to a good paintball strategy.
Another important aspect of paintball is Teamwork. A Fire Team Captain should direct his or her teams movement up the field, Fire teams should stay within 15 feet of each other, But never ever So close that more then 1 member is occupying any 1 tree or bunker. Movement as a Fire team should be coordinated so 1 or 2 players lay down suppression fire wile the other team members advance up the field, Then these players lay suppression fire so the rest of the team may advance as well. Movement should always be cover to cover, and in short distances, try to avoid long runs for cover. Listen to the opposition, You might get some valuable info about locations or strategies.
