How to play Paintball |
Upon arriving at the Cochrane outdoor paintball field you will suit yourself up into a set of clean, camouflage
uniform as well as chest protector (if needed).
Next, all players fill out and submit a waiver form enforcing the safety rules and liabilities.
The waiver does require a witness but it doesn't have to be a
parent/guardian signature. Most groups fill out the waivers on game day
but if you would like to pre-fill them out a link can be found here. After handing in
the waiver everyone is issued a Day Tracking Number. Now you will look
at the 5 different levels of paintball markers and the paintball pricing sheet.
Choose your desired package as well as pick a separate face mask.
Paintballs can last a long time or can go quickly depending on the
individual operating the marker. Choose the package that best suits your
budget. The more paintballs you start with, the less expensive extras
are later on. The packages are set up in a bulk scale, so the more you
buy initially, the less you pay per paint ball. Everyone must buy at
least the minimum 100 paintballs for $18. For groups, the cheapest way
is to start everyone with the minimum 100 and then start one person in
the group with a larger amount (i.e. - 500, 1000, 2000, etc). You then
share the paintballs and split the cost. This is the cheapest way and
also gets you the cheapest extra balls if required. No outside
paintballs are allowed and we have a field specific color and type to
easily identify outside balls. Payment is accepted by cash, debit, Visa,
MasterCard, and American Express.
You will then be taken out by the gun instructor and taught how to play fun, safe, paintball.
This involves loading up your paintballs and going to the target range
where you will be instructed on how to operate your gun and fill up your compressed air tank (free unlimited fills)
as well as test fire your marker to ensure that it is working properly.
After choosing teams / groups you pickup your flag and listen to
the rules of the game of "Capture The Flag". We have 116 acres and 19
courses so all groups play privately unless they choose to join with
other groups that want "joiners". If you do have a smaller group and
want to find others to join, our staff will gladly help you find
joiners.

Due to the variety of terrain that outdoor paintball has to offer, there are many different ways the sport can be played.
This following list is intended for more experienced players and groups who wish to add a new challenge to their game, or try something new and different.
Instructors can clarify or arrange these games for your group. We recommend you print out the rules for any game(s) you would like to play, and go over them with the entire group
making sure everyone clearly understands them. Please read carefully, as some games may require materials to be brought to the paintball field.
Games are played regardless of weather conditions. So rain, snow and wind become just another element of the game.
Remember, the game of paintball is intended to be pure fun, and is an exciting way of getting fresh air and a workout,
while testing your stamina, and strategy with friends. We also have a lodge to
warm up in between games and remember the cover from the trees and
forest guards against snow, wind, and rain.
