Paintball: An Intro If You Have Never Played Before

By Reed Mitty

When you are bored and have to think of something for the family to do you should think about something that everyone can enjoy that is outside and that involves thinking and moving really quickly. Better yet, why not add an activity to your families lifestyle that promotes teamwork and cohesion? One recreational activity that can offer this and more is Paintball - one of the most exciting games that adults and young adults can play.

Paintball is a game of strategy, kind of like chess, so not only does it test your ability to think under pressure, it pushes you to practice visual-strategics before each mach. This is an essential skill to learn in life - it goes along with the whole "see it and achieve it" mindset. Another aspect that is really great about this game, is that your can have an infinite number of players taking on an infinite number of challenges or game variants. This alone makes every weekend of play new and challenging.

If you have come across paintball at a fun fair that you have recently been to, you may have noticed that it is a bit boring. This is the limited version of paintball, and one thing that you have to remember, is that there is no limit to what paint ball can be. When played in the woods it can be an all out tactical game, and when played on a large field filled with bunkers it can be a fast paced shootout.

Once you have your opponents in sight you will have to shoot at them with the special paintball guns that are given to you. These can hurt even though it is just paint so you will all have to wear body armor when you play.

A fun game to play is the game of capture the flag. Now, you may have played capture the flag before, but if you were to mix it with a game of paintball, you will have a real fun game on your hands.

It is a great stress reliever and you can also spend quality time with the family when you do this. There's nothing like letting out a weeks worth of frustration through a healthy dose of adrenaline.
