Paintball FAQs
How have paintball players attacked the negative connotations associated with paint ball?
Because paintball uses equipment similar to firearms, the media has often associated it with trivializing violence. Advocates of paintball have attempted to change the way they are viewed by the media by calling guns markers. In addition, camouflage has gradually been replaced by athletic uniforms and the industry has marketed paintball toward widescreen audiences through networks like ESPN.How can an individual start out with paintball for the first time?
The easiest way to start getting involved with paint ball is to find a group of teammates to try the sport out with at a facility. Because paintball is a group sport it is difficult for an individual to start alone. However, new users may be able to join a group or league in their area. Check a local paintball facility for sign-up sheets and also search the Internet.What fees are associated with paintball?
New players that go to the field of play should expect to pay $30 for equipment rental and field time. This will include an entry-level gun, a mask, and some paintballs. Players that decide to stick the sport and buy their own equipment will still have to pay fees to use the field. Prices range from $10-$15 per person.
