Guide for Getting Started with Paintball

Our paintball field is by appointment only, therefore reservations are required. Paintball field can be reserved 7 days per week. Make a request online to reserve your paintball outing.

Upon arrival, check in at the office and bring your signed waiver. This is where you can also purchase your drinks and snacks before heading up to the fields.

After checking in you can make your way to the paintball field. Our paintball field is located at the top of the hill. If you take the gravel road (222nd Drive) past the main entrance to Seven Oaks and up to the top of the hill there is another entrance. Follow the signs to the field.

Wear older clothes, the paint washes off, but to be safe wear something that can get dirty. We recommend wearing long sleeves (jeans and a long sleeve shirt) as getting hit does sting a little but covering your skin will soften that blow.

Please read the first timer summer visitor guide.
