Our Gear & Safety Standards, Explained

18 December 2026· 5 min read·By Regie

From mask inspections to marker servicing — here's exactly how we keep every session safe, and why our standards go further than most fields.

Safety isn't a poster on the wall here — it's built into how every single session runs, from the gear you're handed to the marshal calling the game. Here's exactly what that looks like in practice.

Gear Inspected Before Every Session

Every rental marker is stripped, cleaned, and test-fired between sessions — not just at the end of the day. If a marker doesn't pass, it doesn't go back out. Masks, hoses, and tanks get the same treatment, checked for wear before they're handed to the next group.

"If we wouldn't hand it to our own kids, it doesn't go out on the field. That's the standard, full stop."

Protective Equipment We Provide

Every player, every session, gets:

  • Full-face mask — rated specifically for paintball impact, not to be confused with airsoft or ski goggles.
  • Chest and neck protector — cushions direct hits at close range.
  • Overalls — worn over your own clothes, doubling as extra padding.

Certified Marshals on Every Field

Every game runs under a dedicated marshal — not a rotating volunteer. They enforce mask-on rules without exception, call hits fairly, and have the authority to stop a game the moment something looks unsafe. No field runs unsupervised, ever.

Mandatory Safety Briefings

Every group — regulars included — sits through a safety briefing before the first game. Mask rules, hit-calling, minimum engagement distance, and what happens if gear fails mid-game. It's short, but nobody skips it, and it's the single biggest reason our incident record stays at zero.

Why Our Standards Go Further

None of this is required by law — there's no regulator checking our masks or auditing our marshals. We hold ourselves to it because a great day out only works if everyone goes home exactly as they arrived. That's not a slogan; it's the actual bar we run every session against.
