Sporting teams, church groups and entire families play Paintball. Paintball is a character building sport. Players learn the importance of teamwork and gain self-confidence whilst developing leadership abilities. Companies arrange Paintball outings for their employees and find that it builds staff morale and improves team spirit. Paintball offers an exciting alternative to dull training seminars and everyday sales meetings.
Paintball is like a living chess game.
Rather than speed and strength, Paintball requires strategy and imagination. Women compete equally with men. Although there are many formats, the typical game consists of two teams and runs for about 10 to 30 minutes depending on the size of the field and the number of players. The object of the game is to capture the other teams flag whilst protecting your own. You also try to eliminate opposing players by tagging them with a paintball expelled from a special gas powered marker.
