Rules and Game Play
Rules
Paintball is an extreme sport; therefore, certain safety rules have to apply. Additionally, you will notice that there are 5 main safety rules, which are taken very seriously. Moreover, the only other “rule” is that you have fun. Furthermore, before each game, the master ref calls a safety briefing, during which you will go through all rules and regulations.
- Safety masks must be always worn during game play and while on the field. At no time, therefore, may the player remove his safety mask inside the game area. Furthermore, should you get shot on the goggles or, in addition, if the goggles fog up to the extent where you cannot see, raise your hand and ask for assistance from the referee. Consequently, this is the most important rule, which is why it is rule No 1. Moreover, any player found removing or even lifting his goggles while in the gaming area will be expelled from the game.
- There is a minimum range of 5m.
- No overshooting, in other words, once a player has been “tagged”, under no circumstances will you continue shooting him.
- Do not pick up paintballs from the ground. In fact, they are considered as dead paintballs because they could cause damage to the equipment and could hurt fellow players.
- Do not shoot the referees; in fact, they are there to assist you. Furthermore, shooting a referee unnecessarily could, in turn, cause you to be expelled from the game.
