SUMMER SPECIALS

Paintball is played year around on our outdoor playing fields. Paintball is a game played between two opposing teams who are trying to capture each other's flag and return it to the flag station. The only catch to all this is you have to do this without getting zapped by a paintball. Of course, you DO get to shoot back with your paintball marker. Once you have been zapped you are out for that game. Do not be concerned because games last anywhere from a few minutes to 15 minutes. So you can play as many games as you would like in a day.

Paintball is one of the only sports were men, women, and children can compete on a level playing field. Anyone from the age of 10 years old and up can play paintball. You will see all walks of life playing paintball from children to their mom and dad; they all play paintball. Any physical type can play paintball too. You do not have to be a track or football star to be good at this game. Who plays paintball? Just about everybody can or does play paintball. We also have paintball options for players 6 years old and up - some options are by reservation only.

When playing paintball, you will need loose fitting, dark colored clothing, to help you blend into your natural environment. Some players wear camouflage, we recommended some old clothes, something you would wear to work in the yard. Pants and a long sleeve shirt are also recommended. Our paint will wash out of all your clothing. Running shoes or Hi-top hiking boots are preferred (No Sandals). Also, when you rent equipment you will be issued a pair of paintball goggles and a face mask that will cover your whole face.

A paintball is mostly a gelatin ball, which is filled with cornstarch, food coloring, and mineral oil. Our park only uses paintballs that are non-toxic and biodegradable and come in a bright color, so you can see what you hit! Each paintball used at Fun On The Run Paintball Park is manufactured exclusively to our specifications for maximum performance. No outside paintballs allowed in the park.

Move around while keeping your eyes open is the best tip for playing paintball. Many players make a great play and then quickly get eliminated because they were not looking around. Be alert and never focus too much on one thing. Don't keep zipping paintballs at the same guy behind the bunker or tree over and over again. Move on and surprise him from the side or another angle. Most importantly, be honest; if you get hit and see the splat on you, please raise your hand and exit the game. There is always another game to redeem yourself.
