Players must be 7 years and older to play Gotcha Low Impact Paintball Adventure Paintball is suitable for 12 years to adults although some younger players may play. Please inquire. All players must understand the safety rules and be able to handle the equipment in a safe manner

Gotcha Low Impact is perfect for kids 7 to 12 years old. Parents can play too! Players use a lightweight plastic spring loaded – pump style – single shot rifle. Paintballs are smaller than the regular size paintballs and travel at speeds of 120 fps (feet per second) as opposed to Adventure Paintball where players use an air powered semi auto rifle and paintballs travel at speeds up to 170 fps. The obvious difference is that Low Impact usually doesn’t hurt when you get hit at distances of 20 feet or more, although some smaller children may still consider it ‘painful’ as their pain tolerance is lower. The closest comparison is like being flicked with a rubber band. Regular Adventure Paintball is fun for teens to adults. Younger kids from 12 years may enjoy this version if they are more ‘rough and tumble’ and enjoy sports such as hockey, football, etc. All players must understand the safety rules and be able to handle the equipment in a safe manner. 7 - 11yrs choose Low Impact Paintball 11 - 14yrs choose Low Impact if the kids are more an indoor quiet group 12 -14yrs choose Adventure Paintball for rough & tumble, sporty kids 15yrs + this age group will enjoy Adventure Paintball

We encourage groups - big or small - to play by themselves. (Private Games) Even 2 players can enjoy a game of 1 on 1 if they don't feel comfortable playing with other players. You may invite other players to join your group, but that is entirely up to you.

We currently have 7 fields (maps) to play on. 2 are dedicated to Low Impact paintball only. During regular hours of operation there will be multiple groups at the facility, we run a rotation style of play so all groups get equal access to all fields. In other words, you do not choose only one field to play on. You may play on all available fields.

During regular hours of operation no minimum numbers of players are required. Even 2 players can enjoy playing paintball on our fields. There is no maximum number of players, although our fields are best suited to no more than 20 players per field. If you have a larger group, it’s best to split into two or more groups.

Well..... you can usually feel it. It can be like catching a baseball in your hand, there is an initial ‘ouch’ but it fades quickly. Getting hit on bare skin can be a little more painful, that’s why we suggest you wear clothes to cover up bare arms and legs. Loose, baggy clothes are best, but not too big - you still have to run around without them falling off! The loose fabric absorbs much of the hit so you are less likely to feel anything on your body. Also, your adrenaline is pumping so high that sometimes you can’t even feel the paintball at all! In short, the excitement of the game outweighs the pain factor for most players. If you are still concerned, ask about our new line of Rhinohide Gear™. These lightweight outfits are specially designed to provide protection for your entire body in a two piece jacket and pants outfit. They may be rented individually or as a set. Paintballs hurt enough that you don't want to get hit, but not enough that you want to Quit! We also offer Gotcha Low Impact Paintball as an alternative and perfect for kids 7 years and up.
