The following page tries to answer the
frequently asked questions by customers prior to booking their
day of paintball.
What safety
measures are there?
Each player is equipped with coveralls, padded headover and
a full face and ear protected visor (which must be worn everywhere
accept in the safe area). Every player is also given a full
and instructive talk on Site Safety and gun operation. As an
extra safety precaution the guns also come with a barrel plug
in order to protect customers from misfiring. For a full run
down on the equipment that is provided, click
here to visit the Equipment page.
In addition our site manager (John Taylor) is a paramedic,
and all of our Marshals are ex-marines
with basic first aid training.
How should
I dress for a day of paintball?
It is recommended that you wear comfortable
and sturdy footwear such as a pair of walking boots or even
studded footwear (football boots). Jeans, 'T' Shirt, sweatshirt
and a pair of gloves. We provide protective coveralls, however
it is advisable to bring a change of clothes.
Does the
weather affect paintballing?
For the most part the answer is NO. The game
is played throughout the year, in all conditions. The excitement
and enjoyment more than compensates for the inclement weather.
Many of our customers when returning to play paintball will
choose a different time of the year in order to have a different
paintballing experience.
What do
I do about refreshments during the day?
Refreshments such as tea, coffee, hot chocolate and fruit juice,
INCLUDING LUNCH,
are provided FREE
of charge on the site. If a 3 course meal is required then please
ring freephone 0800 015 5072 or e-mail
us for a quote.
How many
paintballs will I use?
This is a difficult question to answer! The
average player would expect to use around 500 paintballs during
their paintball experience (this is why many people now go for
our bonus £39 offer). However there will be players who
will use less than that and others who will use more, the choice
is yours! For more information on paintball prices click
here to go to the Price List page.
What is
the minimum age for paintballing?
We allow people 12 years and above
to play at our site. However we require players under the age
of 16 to be accompanied by an adult.
The ideal ratio we look to have is one
adult per three under 16 players.
What time
do we start / finish? What is the day timetable?
We meet at 9.30am
at the rear car park of the Dunkenhalgh Hotel. Directions to
the Hotel can be found on our Location
page. We generally finish around 1530-1600
or slightly later depending on group size and people arriving
on time.
