ImportanT Information & FAQ's

What do I need to bring on the day?

Players should wear old, comfortable clothing and may also want to bring a change of clothes. The most suitable footwear would be a light boot, but old trainers are most commonly worn. You may also want to bring some money for purchasing additional paintballs (we accept cash and credit/debit cards verified by PIN only).

Do I need to fill out a registration form?

All players are required to complete a registration form before they begin play. Players under 18 years must have their form signed by an adult; we suggest you send these out with your invitations. The other parents should return their completed registration forms for you to bring with you to the paintball centre on the day of your event.

Adult players can complete registration forms on arrival at the paintball centre, but we suggest you can complete them in advance to speed up your check in time.

You can download both adult and children’s registration forms here.

How many paintballs will I need?

There is no way of knowing how many paintballs any individual will use, as it depends on how trigger-happy you are. But to give you some sort of idea people on a full days play use between 500 and 1000 paintballs. It is entirely up to each person how much they want to spend. You can purchase paintballs at the centre throughout the day, during the breaks between games.

Can I bring my own paintballs?

Just like you can’t take your own alcohol to a pub, you cannot bring your own paintballs to the centre. You can only use paintballs issued by Unreal Paintball on the day of your event.

What is the minimum age?

The minimum age to play at most centres is 12 years old.

What happens on the day? 

On arrival, you will be greeted by our friendly staff, who will check you in. After you have filled out registration forms (to speed up your check-in process, you can download and fill these out beforehand) you will be kitted up with all the gear and have a safety briefing. Then the action starts! You will play 10-12 games during a full day session, with short breaks in between to reload your paintballs and discuss tactics!

How many players do I need to bring?

There is no minimum or maximum requirement; any numbers are fine (although we may require a minimum of 16 players for a mid week game). You will be joined with other players on the day to make up a team.

Will my child be playing with adults?

We will try to join your group up with a similar age group, where possible. However, there are often groups of mixed ages (when parents like to play with their children, or there are also older siblings joining in etc).

I’m not sure how many players I have, but I want to book now so that I don’t miss out on the date I want. What should I do?

You can make your booking now for the players that you have confirmed. You can then add additional players onto your booking up until a few days before your event.

What happens if it rains?

The games go ahead regardless, in all weather conditions. All the game zones are outdoors, but there are sheltered areas in the base camp where you can go between games.

What times can we play?

A full day session is 9.30am until approximately 4.00 – 4:30pm.
A half day session in the AM will start at 9.30am and finish at 1.00pm and the PM session will beging at 12.30pm and finish at 4.00 - 4.30pm.

What happens if a player does not turn up on the day and I have already paid for them?

All payments are non-refundable and non-transferable.
