HOME                                  Rules of the Game

All fields have a designated boundary and at least two flag stations or forts. One station or fort for each team. Players will start in the fort or 5’ behind their flag station.

The field judge will give a 10 second warning. Anytime after which the judge will then blow a whistle, horn, or announce " game on" to start the game.

Each team will then leave their station, eliminate as many of the opposing team as they can, and capture the opposing teams flag and return it to their own flag station. (Some games may work differently and will be explained by the field judge).

If a player goes outside of the designated boundary, is hit by a breaking paintball (under the rules),  trips a booby trap, is barrel tagged,  or surrenders, that is instant elimination. Friendly fire is considered any elimination hit.

Any "splat" consistently the size of a quarter or more shall be an elimination hit. Splatter or spray from an impact not directly on the player does not count as a "hit". There is one exception to this rule: any paint splatter from a grenade or paint mine is considered an elimination hit.

Barrel tagging occurs when a player sneaks up close enough to an opposing player to physically touch that player with his barrel. When this occurs, the player who is touched by the barrel is "out".

Once a player is eliminated from a game, they must wave their gun above their head and call out repeatedly, loud and clear, that they are ... " Out"... "Hit"... or "Surrender". The player must place the safety on, put on the barrel sleeve, and move away from the action on the playing field until the end of the game. Due to the size of the "Hunt and Stalk" fields at our facility, you do not have to leave the field of play, once you are eliminated. A word of warning ... Stray rounds may find their way to you, so if this concerns you, get completely off the playing field, once you are eliminated. You may continue to watch from within the playing area, providing you stay out of the way of the action and follow the rule listed below. 

You are "dead". You can’t talk to, signal, resupply, or assist your live teammates in any way! Your gun, ammo, and CO2 are eliminated with you.
