Does paintball hurt?

At Delta Force Paintball, your comfort and safety are our highest priorities. While you may feel a slight “sting” similar to a quick flick of a rubber band, our industry-leading safety gear is specifically designed to minimize impact and maximize fun.

To ensure a comfortable and safe experience for every player, we provide:

  • .50 Calibre Technology: We use a smaller, lighter calibre of paintball. This reduces impact energy by 60% compared to traditional paintball centres, making the game much more approachable for everyone.

  • Bespoke Body Armour: Our custom-designed plates protect the torso, significantly absorbing the feel of any impact.

  • Full-Body Combat Suits: These durable suits feature integrated padded neck collars for extra protection in sensitive areas.

  • Full-Head Goggle Systems: Unlike standard goggles, our systems wrap entirely around the head, providing 360-degree protection for the ears, temples, and face.

  • Professional Marshalling: Our marshals strictly enforce a “distance rule” on the field, ensuring no one is shot from close range.

  • National Pro-Tip: We recommend wearing loose, breathable clothing underneath your combat suit. This adds an extra buffer and allows for full range of motion. For those wanting maximum protection, armoured gloves are available at our on-site kiosks to protect your hands.
