DAYS & TIMES:
The Paintball Park is available seven days a week for "private
groups" of 15 or more players, but they must make a reservation at least
one week in advance. The Park is open every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 8:30 to
4:00 for individuals and smaller groups to play in "walk-on" games.
Walk-on players who want to rent equipment do not have to reserve the rental
gear in advance. But equipment rentals are on a first-come/first-served basis,
and occasionally we have days where all the gear is rented out. Go to the FAQ
link on our web site for more information.
RENTAL EQUIPMENT:
You can bring your own equipment or rent gear at the field. Our standard rental paintguns are high-quality Tippmann semiautomatics. In addition to paintguns, we rent
goggles with full-face shields, belt/pouches with twin ammo tubes for carrying
extra paintballs, CO2 and HP gas cylinders, barrel safety socks, electronic
loaders, storage lockers, and military camo-style
jackets (we do not offer pants or coveralls for rent). Also, HP refills are
included with standard paintgun rentals. See the
Price Sheet link for the rental costs and CO2 and HP gas refill charges. An ID
card MUST be held by us as security for rented equipment until the gear is
returned at the end of play.
FORMAT:
At 9:00 we give an orientation to explain the game rules, safety guidelines and
rental gear. Immediately after we chrono the paintguns and start the first set of games. Play ends by
4:00. We average 12 to 16 games in a full day. Each game lasts 15 to 25 minutes,
depending on the number of players in a group and the type of game. After a
two-game set on a field, the players return to the staging area for a short
break before going to a different field for another two-game set. Players
continue rotating through our ten fields during the day, with a 30-minute lunch
break around 12:30.
GAMES:
The most common paintball game is called "Capture the Flag." Players
are divided into two equal teams, and each team has a flag at their base. If
you can cross the field, pull their flag, and bring it back to your base before
they capture yours, you win. Another common game scenario is "Center
Flag," where there is only one flag in the middle of the field. Your team
has to get the flag and push through your opponents to hang it at their base.
We also can play "Elimination," where there is no flag and only total
annihilation of the opposition wins, and "Attack & Defend," where
a small force must hold a defensive position against the attack of a larger force.
FIELDS:
The Paintball Park is 50 acres in a box canyon approximately eight miles from
the beach. Ocean breezes keep the Paintball Park cool, even in the hottest
months of summer. The facility has a large staging area with plenty of parking
spots and picnic tables for the players. There are eight fields at the site.
They offer a wide variety of terrain with bunkers, buildings, trenches, big
trees, and sandbag fortifications to keep the play interesting and challenging.
FOOD & DRINK:
Drinking water is available at the Park, and we have Gatorade, sodas and candy
bars for sale. Most players go to McDonald’s (about a mile down the road) for
lunch or order pizza (Domino’s on base delivers to the field). Or you can bring
your own food and drinks. NO ALCOHOL ALLOWED
WHAT TO WEAR:
Wear lose-fitting clothing and outdoor shoes. Long pants and long-sleeve shirts
are highly recommended. You will get dirty from diving, rolling and crawling in
the brush, but the paintball splats wash out. If you don't have camos, wear earth-tone, dark-colored clothes to help you
hide. Bringing a change of clothing for the drive home is a good idea, also.
PAINTBALLS:
If you use our rental paintguns, you must shoot
our paintballs. This requirement prevents you from having problems with
accuracy and ball breakage, which can happen if you shoot old or poor-quality
paintballs through our paintguns. We supply
premium-quality, fresh paintballs. Our Rental Packages include 500 rounds,
which are plenty of paintballs for 6-to-10 games for most players. You can
bring your own paintballs to use in your own paintgun,
or you can purchase paintballs at the field. No red-colored paint and no paint
that stains!
AGE & SAFETY RULES:
There is no minimum age requirement, but as a general rule, we do not recommend
paintball for kids under 10. Paintball is an extremely safe sport, as long as
players follow the simple safety guidelines. This is why we have refs
supervising the games, and why we strictly enforce our safety rules. If a child
is too immature to follow the safety rules, he is too young to play paintball.
Our insurance requires a completed and signed "liability waiver/safety
agreement" from every participant and spectator. Go to the FAQ link for
more information.
DIRECTIONS:
From Hwy 5, take the "Camp Pendleton/Ocean Harbor Dr." exit. Go east
a few hundred yards to the main gate. Tell the MP guard you are going to the
Paintball Park. He will want to see your license, registration and car
insurance. Once you are through the main gate, there are no turns. Drive
straight down the road approximately 7.5 miles. The park is on the right side,
and there is a big "Paintball Park" sign.
SPECIAL EVENTS:
Once or twice a year we have special events at the field, like tournaments or
big games, which shut down the normal walk-on play. Also, we are not open for
walk-on play during the week. Check the Special Events link on our website. Any
changes to the regular schedule will be posted there.
