Does getting shot with a paintball hurt?
A paintball shot should not hurt more than getting whipped with a towel. If you do not respect the rules of the game and do not keep a reasonable distance, it could sting when you are hit and maybe leave a bruise. Paintball is the safest sport in the world. It is statistically safer than golf and bowling. In 15 years, we have never had an injury requiring a hospital visit. At Frontline Paintball we ensure our equipment is safe and our paintballs are top quality.
Can I bring my own paintballs?
No. This is a field paint only facility.
Do we play if it rains?
We go rain or shine, unless there are thunderstorms. Please note that you must give us 24 hours notice for cancellations.
Can I bring my own food and/or beverages?
We have a snack bar on site and we allow outside food or beverages on the property.
How much paint will I use?
Birthday Parties have a set amount of Paint (75-200 balls). The average recreational player goes through 150 -500 paintballs in 2-3 hours of paintball.
Minimum Age
The minimum age for paintball is 10 years old. 5 years is the minimum age for Laser Tag.
Liability Releases (Waivers)
Please visit our website to print and sign our waiver release forms. All participants are required to have one.
Can I upgrade my equipment?
Yes, we have marker upgrades in the form of Ranger ($7-$9 extra) and Commando Packages ($17-$19 extra) and thermal masks ($3-$5 extra) which will not fog up as easily. These are limited so reserve one as soon as you arrive.
Do I Give a Tip?
Our referees and party hosts/ hostesses work very hard to ensure that your group has the experience of a lifetime. In most service industries it is customary to offer a gratuity for good service. Please consider this when settling your bill. If we have failed to live up to your expectations please let us know.
No Smoking or Alcohol Consumption Please
Please refrain from smoking anywhere on Frontline Paintball property (City By-law). Alcohol consumption in public is against the law and may result in impairment of judgement and unsafe play.
