A: Yes. Paintball has the lowest injury to participant ratio of any sport in which statistics are taken. Paintball in Victoria (and everywhere else) is statistically a lot safer than ten pin bowling, golf and table tennis
| Q: Does is hurt when hit by a paintball? |
A: The best way we can describe the feeling of being hit by a paintball is ‘ouch’. It gives you a sting similar to being stung by an elastic band but once you have the first one under the belt and the adrenalin is pumping there is no greater thrill. Don’t stress about the pain it isn’t too bad.
| Q: What is the legal age limit for paintball in Victoria? |
A: 18. Other states have lower age limits but ALL of Victoria has a legal age limit of 18+ to play paintball games. If any field in Victoria allows you to play paintball games and you are under 18 they are putting you and themselves at risk. You (and the operator) won’t be covered by insurance and you (and the operator) will be in breech of the Firearms Act and could be charged by Victoria Police. The industry is working to lower the age limit so be sure to check in to our site for updates. |
A: If your group is refereed correctly it is illegal to get shot within 8 meters so any tag you receive should leave a small red mark on the skin. If you have heard any horror stories or seen any gnarly pictures of paintball bruises then it is likely they were received breaking the paintball code of conduct (ie shooting each other too close). This doesn’t happen at our field. Ladies receive free half armour (so only your arms and legs are exposed) or full body armour for a small fee (so everything is protected). We recommend only half armour at most though as half the exhilaration of playing is tagging people and getting tagged yourself.
