Paintball games are a great way of having outdoor recreational fun for everybody, young and old, male or female! There is nothing quite like the thrill of the chase and the rush of adrenalin that comes from a well timed victory and the capture of the defending team's flag.
Girls; don't let the boys tell you that you can't play paintball. Girls can and do make some pretty formidable opponents (they are just so much smarter) we think!
Paintball is a fun way to relax with your friends and gives so much scope for Monday morning stories. Get a team together and try out the two games below.
Once you know the basics of how to play paintball, try out the many other styles of play or invent your own games.
* Playing'Capture the Flag'
The teams must defend their own flag and try to capture the opposing team's flag and return it to home base.
The Paintball Game Steps
* Divide all the players into equal numbered teams.
* Create two home bases and mark them with a flag in the center.
* Decide how long play will be allowed for. This will depend on the terrain and the number of players. If the area is large and there are several players allow for more time, but don't overdo it as a short game builds up pressure and makes for a more fun game. Ensure that all the players know the signal for starting or stopping the game.
