Cutting the Cost of Paintballing in the UK
Paintball is a growing sport and activity in the UK, with a growing number of venues offering paintball events, paintball is a popular activity for young men, and often used for stag dos, birthdays and corporate days out. Paintballing on a regular basis can be an expensive pasttime, the venues typically charge a day / half day or evening hire fee, this typically includes the full equipment, a limited number of paintballs and all the safety equipment.
When paintballing, its important to wear the appropriate clothing, there is little point turning up in your best clothes, if (when!) you get hit by a paintball its likely to stain your clothing, its also important to wear clothing that will protect your body as much as possible, when a paintball hits it can be pretty painful in the wrong (or right) area. Weather permitting its advisable to wear full length trousers and top, its also advisable to wear more than one layer, although in the height of summer this would’nt be very comfortable!
Any paintball centre should supply appropriate protective headgear, ideally the headwear should provide at a minimum a full face guard, although a full head mask is advisable, a head shot will be painful aswell as messy!
