Paintball Etiquette? Is that even a thing?

Yes my fellow paintball warriors, it is.
There’s nothing worse than having your epic time ruined by someone who’s not playing fair, so I’m going to educate you all on some of the basic etiquette us paintballers appreciate.
If you’re out, you’re out. Don’t be a jerk.
I know, it sucks when you’re hit. It’s not too long till your next game though! If you’ve been hit, stick your hand up and let the marshal send you off the field to consider your strategy for the next game. Staying in when you’ve been hit is not cool, and unfair to the marksman that deserves his victory.
Don’t shoot point blank.
Not only is this against the rules, but you risk injuring your team mates or the other team by shooting point blank. Save your bullets for the shots that’ll count.
Be a good sportsperson.
You’re playing a team sport, so remember to play as a team. Also remember to congratulate the winning team! You’ll play against them later, so avoid being rude or starting an argument
Listen to the marshals.
I’ve mentioned our awesome marshals a few times, and here’s the best advice I can give: respect and listen to these dues, they’re hard working and want to make your day as awesome as possible. Listening to them will make your day, and theirs, much better. Paintball warriors, there’s nothing better than an awesome day out on the field with your mates, shooting the enemy and having a wicked time on some awesome game zones. Can’t wait to see you there!

Experience the Delta Force Difference

I have a confession: Ice-cream is my vice.
I love it. I’ll happily have a tub of the stuff every week (I don’t, I still want to fit in my combat suit!). There’s something to consider about ice-cream though; if it’s bad quality, you’re going to have a bad time. That’s why I always pick the good stuff. The same goes for playing paintball. Why settle for something that isn’t high quality? Yes, it’s a bit pricier, but you get what you pay for. After all, guaranteeing your safety (or the happiness of your tastebuds) and the safety (read: happiness) of your loved ones is worth paying for. At Delta Force Paintball we consider ourselves the connoisseur of paintball fields. We love to introduce new players to the great game of paintball, in a safe place where they are guaranteed to have a good time. At a Home Brand field you won’t get a 100% clean safety record, or a 30ft pyramid. A Home Brand field can’t offer you game zones that have been featured in movies across the world. Yes. That is a full size Black Hawk Helicopter. Delta Force Paintball is a place that features all those awesome game zones, but we also have a few other features that set us apart from the rest. Did you know we exclusively use the world’s first kid’s goggles? Yeah, we’ve got your kid’s back. Supplied by Fusion, Delta Force Paintball are the only centres in the world who are using these goggles, customised to suit children. We want to keep our little paintball warriors safe. Our Delta Force managers, assistant mangers and senior marshals hold current first aid qualifications, to ensure the safety of those you want to shoot the most. We also provide everyone with a combat suit that has padded neck protection that will shield you from any paintballs headed your way. Our equipment is cleaned daily, and our older stock is sold to other paintball fields to make room for newer equipment. We don’t like our paintball warriors to have anything less than the best. Delta Force Paintball has (in our humble opinion) the best marshals in the world. They will bend over backwards to make someone’s day special, and go out of their way to help our newest paintball warriors. They’re the kind of people you would want to be trapped in a bunker with. Beyond their good looks and paintball skills, they put in the hard yards every day to keep our sites in great condition (I think its playing paintball that helped them develop a keen eye for detail). These guys definitely make the Delta Force Difference. They’re like a chocolate fudge swirl; a constant source of surprise and happiness. Home Brand doesn’t have a chocolate fudge swirl, that’s for sure. We are a field that can cater to any level of experience, age or fitness. We believe that you can’t let anything stop you from having the time of your life, and our marshals will go the extra mile to make sure you can have the best time possible. <insert recent review> Are you a fan of chocolate chunks? That little bit of luxury that takes a great ice cream even better? Well our event coordinators are the chocolate chunks. They will help you organise a session that is unforgettable. They’ll make sure you’ve got all the information and help you need in order to transform into a paintball warrior. Better yet, they’re available, on our website and over the phone. Talk about dedicated. If only ice cream was as supportive as The Delta Force Paintball Team.

Why aren’t I covered in paint? 29th May 2017
What are paintballs made of?

Back in the 80’s when this awesome game of paintball was created, the paint commonly used was oil based, and was unfriendly to the environment. Oil based paint is the most difficult to wash out of clothing, and can react with the gelatine shell, making the paintball less accurate while shooting.

That doesn’t sound like fun.
