The experience unfolds in dedicated woodland arenas set in the heart of Sherwood Forest, offering a natural, tactical landscape for short, action-packed games.

THE GEAR

Semi‑automatic Markers Built for Younger Hands

State-of-the-art semi-automatic paintball guns are specifically designed for smaller, younger players and are easy to use so children can focus on play rather than complex equipment.

THE SAFETY

Low‑Impact Paint for Age‑Appropriate Play

The smaller paintballs used here deliver only a third of the impact force of standard paintballs, making the activity appropriate for the target age range and tuned for gentler contact play.
