Question 3

Can my group play paintball mid-week?

Answer

At most PaintballX centres you can, provided that the minimum spend has been met. If the minimum spending requirement has not been made, unfortunately we aren’t able to open a centre mid-week, which you will be notified of at the time of your enquiry. However an alternative venue or date will always be offered for you.

Answer

There is no minimum or maximum group size requirement – you can play paintball with any amount of people or individually if you prefer. Your group will be mixed with other players to make up teams for the day but private games can be arranged for larger groups of 40+ individuals. Please be aware that to open a centre, we may require a minimum spend for the group of players you wish to book. Please enquire for specific requirements for each centre.

Question 10

Is there food and drink available at the centre?

Answer

Almost every centre has an onsite shop where you can purchase a selection of refreshments and snacks.

Question 11

Am I allowed to bring my own equipment?

Answer

Players can bring certain items of their own to our centres, but it is always up to the Centre Manager whether or not you can use it. You can bring your own goggles but only if they have been manufactured specifically for paintball games and have not been altered in any way. Players are unable to bring their own paintball gun to the centre unless a private game has been arranged and the gun can operate from the gas canisters provided by the paintballing centre. The use is solely at the discretion of the Centre Manager, and all paintball guns are subject to a chronograph test before use. We do not allow players to bring their own gas or bottles on site for health and safety reasons.

Question 12

What happens if it rains?

Answer

Paintball games go ahead regardless of any inclement weather conditions (except in very extreme circumstances, in which case you will be notified). The games take place outdoors but there are sheltered seating areas in the base camp. In wet weather players may also bring waterproof clothing to wear under their paintball overalls.

Question 13

Do I have to fill out a registration form?

Answer

Every customer is required to fill out a registration form before they can play paintball at our centres. All players under the age of 16 are required to have a Parental Consent Form signed by a parent or guardian; we suggest that these forms are sent out with your invitations. Other parents should return their completed forms to the group organiser for them to bring to the centre on the day of your event. Don’t worry if you don’t have time to complete them before the day as our centres have spare registration forms which you can complete when you arrive.

Question 14

What should I bring with me?

Answer

We recommend that players wear comfortable, old clothing and to bring a change of clothes for the end of the day (personal belongings can be stored in our lockers which you can hire for the day). It’s strongly recommended that you wear walking boots with ankle support and a deep tread rubber soleas it can be muddy in the winter months. Some customers may choose comfort over safety and wear wellington boots. Armoured gloves can be bought from our onsite shop for £6.99(1) but you are welcome to bring your own. We accept PIN verified card payments however these may incur transaction fees so it is recommended you bring cash for any additional paintballs or food.

Question 15

The centre I want to visit is closed/hasn't opened yet, what should I do?

Answer

We will always offer you the closest possible alternative venues. The locations of paintball centres are subject to change for reasons out of our control however PaintballX undertakes to maintain a minimum of 10 paintball venues.

Question 16

What is the recommended footwear for paintballing?

Answer

We strongly recommend that players wear sturdy walking boots with ankle support and a deep tread rubber sole, as it can get muddy and slippery out in the game zones.
