FAQs

Players should wear old, comfortable clothing and may also want to bring a change of clothes to travel home in. We strongly recommend boots with ankle support and deep tread/rubber soles – it can be muddy, wet and slippery in the woodlands. Some players may choose to wear wellies or football boots if it is muddy during the winter months – but it is up to each individual to decide if they want to choose a waterproof option rather than the safety of ankle support. Armoured paintball gloves are available to rent at the venue, or you can bring your own if you wish. You may also want to bring some money for purchasing additional paintballs (we accept cash and credit/debit cards)

You can bring your own equipment to the venue, but it is always at the discretion of the venue manager whether you can use it. You can bring your own goggles, provided they are designed for paintball, have not been modified in any way and are in good order, these must be inspected by the venue manager before any game takes place. You can bring your own gun, but only if it can operate from a compressed air tank and subject to a chronograph test at the owners cost, and at the discretion of the venue manager. We do allow customers’ to use their own 3000/4500 psi compressed air cylinders at the venue but this is subject to inspection prior to any games taking place and can only be filled by a trained member of Conflict Paintball staff.

No, for health and safety reasons, and to maintain a consistent safety standard at the venue you can only use paintballs sold by Conflict Paintball on the day of your event. Any player found to be using paintballs other than ones purchased from Conflict Paintball and in breach of this rule will result in an immediate removal from site with no refunds.

There is no way of knowing how many paintballs any individual will use, as it depends on how trigger-happy you are. It is entirely up to each person how many paintballs they want to use. The average usage (by juniors and Adults) is 400-600 paintballs per person per day. You can purchase paintballs at the venue first thing in the morning or throughout the day, during the breaks between games.

Additional items such as paintballs, drinks, snacks, glove hire and pyrotechnics can be purchased from the service desk in the safety zone with cash or card (Minimum £10 spend when using a debit or credit card). Please note we do not accept payment on site by cheque or run a tab.

There is no minimum or maximum number of players required; any group size is fine (although we may require a minimum spend level in order to open a centre for midweek games). You will be joined with other players on the day to make up teams. 

You can make a provisional booking for the players that you would like to bring (Max 20 players), assuring you your desired game date. Because the venue has a maximum capacity you will be contacted by the booking office if confirmed bookings reach these levels to whether you wish to go ahead with the booking or not. If for any reason you can’t be contacted or committed to the booking your spaces will be available on a first come first serve basis. To avoid disappointment please pay your deposits ASAP.

Once the briefing has finished you will be asked to return to your dedicated seating area and wait for your group to be called up to purchase your first lot of paintballs and any additional add-ons that are available from the service counter, during this time we will split your group into teams and issue your paintball goggles and paintball hoppers.

The staff will now take you through to the gun rack where you will be handed your paintball gun for you to attach your team colour paintball hopper and have a quick blast on the firing range before walking you to your first game zone to receive your mission brief.

When the first two games are finished, staff members will bring you back through to the safe zone so you can have a well deserved rest and a free tea or coffee while preparing for your next objective.

The games go ahead regardless, in all weather conditions. All the game zones are outdoors in woodland areas, so we recommend you bring wet weather gear and sturdy boots with ankle support and deep tread. Some players may opt for the comfort of wellington boots over the safety of boots with ankle support, and it is advisable to bring a spare pair of shoes to go home in. There are sheltered areas within the safe zone where you can store your belongings between games.

All payments are non-refundable and non-transferable.
