Many of America's leading corporations are turning to Paintball in corporate training. Training & Development magazine recently showed American Corporations spend $800 million annually on paintball games.
In working together to combat the opponent, a paintball team develops communication skills, planning and cooperation, decision-making and effective use of resources. In this way, the consolidation of a team throughout a paintball game proves to be one of the best team-building activities. This new approach to facilitation and experiential education combines the thrilling experience of a paintball game with the sequenced facilitation of an educational adventure.
Before beginning play, each person is outfitted with a paintball face mask, and a paintball marker which uses .68 caliber, water-soluble paintballs. A referee explains the safety rules, and then instructs the teams in a variety of incredibly fun and challenging games that will focus on your group's stated goals. Team Paintball is excellent for developing advanced problem-solving skills, communication, and group coordination.
Paintball is a competitive game played like any other competitive game, to win. It is like a more challenging, high-stakes version of tag, hide-and-seek, or capture the flag because you shoot at other people and get shot at! Fun On The Run Paintball Park's team building activities can be played with as few as two people or as many as 500; a game can last 5 minutes or a half hour; it’s objective might be to take something, bring something, find something, or to simply be the last person standing.
Depending on the gameplay you choose, tactics will vary, from being quiet and sneaky and picking your shots carefully to being loud, fast, and shooting constantly. A paintball game can be different every time, but there’s one thing that stays the same: it’s an adrenaline rush.
