Rec Ball Rules

For paintball beginner, I strongly recommend you read through the rules below before you start to play. In paintball game, referee would not be able to watching and monitoring players all the times, sometimes he might miss to judge just like football game. Understand the basic rules not only can protect yourself and also protect your opponents to avoid any unnecessary injury.

  1. Masks must be worn in the chrono area
  2. Masks must be worn in the Speedball Court & Woods games areas.
  3. Never break the seal (the foam seal inside the mask around your eyes) for any reason - even if fogged or dirty - call for a ref.
  4. Penalty for mask removal could be warning, removal from a game, or removal for the day.
  5. Barrel Plugs IN and Safeties ON at all times unless in the chrono area or in a game.
  6. When you're eliminated from a game, plug IN and safety ON.
  7. There shall never be any hand-to-hand or physical contact, unless to tag an opponent.
  8. No shooting or dry-firing unless in a game or at the chrono station.
  9. Field adjustments to over 300fps speed will result in elimination for the day.
  10. Do not fire if closer than 10-feet!
  11. A player is eliminated when a paintball breaks on them leaving a mark the size of a quarter or more. Call for a paint check if in doubt. Once you're eliminated, call "Out!" and hold your marker over your head. Put Safety ON and Barrel Plug IN. Once you call yourself out, you're out no matter what.
  12. There are no "time-outs" in paintball, unless directed by a field referee.
  13. Once you're eliminated, you cannot talk to your teammates, nor can you give any paint or supplies to them.
  14. During a Paint Check, there should be no shooting, no moving, and no talking. At this time, you may reload or change CO2 tanks.
  15. Players will be given armbands for team identification.
  16. Players will be advised of all scenarios, games, and missions before each game starts
    No climbing trees
  17. No throwing sticks, stones, etc.
  18. If your CO2 "burst disc" lets loose, put the marker down on the ground and step away until it discharges.
  19. In case of thunder & lightning, we'll vacate the field to our base set-up area.
