Q: What is paintball?
A: Paintball is an exciting recreational game played year round.
There are many different types of games played including elimination, capture the flag, and attack and defend. The most basic game, “Capture the Flag”, has an obvious objective. Capture the other team’s flag and return it to your team’s home base for the win, while defending your own flag from the other team!
Each player uses a paintball marker powered by CO2 or compressed air which shoots the paintballs. The paintballs are colorful gelatin capsules filled with a brightly colored, washable liquid. Upon contact, the paintballs split open, leaving a splat of color that marks the player out of the game. The more opponents that are eliminated, the easier it is to capture the flag.
Most games are around 20 minutes, so a marked player, while eliminated from the previous game, simply wipes off the splat and jumps into the next new game.
