FAQ

To book, all you need to do is call us on 0203 869 9135 and speak to one of our friendly operators to check availability and book your event, alternatively you can email us and we will call you straight back or you can ask us to call you at a particular time, or complete the online booking enquiry form.  Another option is to drop in to your nearest Delta Force Paintball centre and speak to the manager at the centre.  Please note: it is essential you call in advance and make an appointment to visit your preferred centre.

If you have any problems or any further questions – please call 0203 869 9135 (Calls are charged at Local Rate).  Friendly operators are waiting to take your call 7 days a week.

We run a morning and an afternoon session and each session is 3 hours long. At local paintball centres operating times differ – please contact our booking office for more details.

The paintball games go ahead regardless, in all weather conditions.  All game zones are based outdoors in woodland areas, so we recommend you bring wet weather gear and sturdy boots with ankle support and deep tread.  Some players may opt for the comfort of wellington boots over the safety of boots with ankle support, and it is advisable to bring a spare pair of shoes to go home in.  There are sheltered areas and lockers available to hire in the base camp where you can store your gear between games.  Players may also like to wear a thin waterproof layer of clothing under the combat suit we issue you for the day.

To avoid getting lost we suggest you make sure all drivers in your group print the directions from the website and take these with them.  Our directions are for guidance only, we recommend using a road map for more precise directions.  If you do have trouble finding the centre, call us on 0203 869 9135 (Calls are charged at Local Rate) and one of our friendly staff will help you find your centre.  Please note that our Head Office is based in Surrey and may not be aware of specific incidents in the area, such as road closures and road works.  However, we will be able to put you in contact with someone who can help you further.

Where possible we will join your group with a group of similar age.  However, there are often groups of mixed ages (when parents like to play with their children, or there are older siblings joining in etc).

There is no minimum or maximum number of players required; any group size is fine (although we may require a minimum spend level in order to open a centre for a midweek game).  You will be joined with other players on the day to make up a team.  To have a private paintball game playing against members of your own group, you will need to bring a minimum of 50 players, or pay an additional fee.

All players attending a national paintball centre are required to register which you can noe do online. You will be sent a link when you make your booking.

On arrival, you will be greeted by our friendly staff who will check you in.  After you have completed registration forms you will be kitted up with all the gear needed for the day and attend a compulsory safety briefing.  Then the action starts!  You will play 3-6 varied games during a full day session, with short refreshment breaks in between to reload your paintballs and discuss tactics!

Most of our national centres are open almost 365 days a year.  We do strongly recommend booking your desired date well in advance to avoid disappointment.  To check availability, please contact the booking office on 0203 869 9135

No alcohol is permitted at our paintball centres.  Any players who have been drinking will be excluded from the games and asked to leave the centre.

The minimum age for Miniball is 7 years old and we recommend players between 7-9 take part in miniball games however players from 8 years and above are able to take part in regular paintball games too.

Parents need to know about the nature of the activity and decide for themselves whether their particular child is hardy, and mature enough to participate in paintball. To help you with this, we have compiled an ‘Information for Parents’ guide, which can be included in your information pack or requested from our friendly staff.

Additional items such as paintballs, lunch, gloves and paintball grenades (for players aged 18+ years) can be purchased from the shop at national paintball centres with cash or card (verified by pin only).  Please note we do not accept payment on site by cheque. 

There is no way of knowing how many paintballs any individual will use, as it depends on how trigger-happy you are. It is entirely up to each person how many paintballs they want to use but a good indication is about 200 paintballs per game zone. You can decide how many game zones you play and further paintballs are available to purchase on the day at your discretion.

For health and safety reasons, and to maintain a consistent safety standard across all centres, you can only use paintballs issued by Delta Force Paintball on the day of your event.

You can bring certain items of your own equipment to the centre, but it is always at the discretion of the Centre Manager whether you can use it.  You can bring your own goggles, provided they are designed for paintball games and have not been modified in any way.  You can bring your own gun to national paintball centres, but you will only be able to use it if you have arranged a private game and only if it can operate from a Delta Force Paintball gas bottle.  The use is at the discretion of the Centre Manager, and the gun will be subjected to a chronograph test.  We do NOT allow any customers’ own gas cylinders at any of our paintball centres for ANY REASON.

Players should wear old, comfortable clothing and may also want to bring a change of clothes for the conclusion of the game.  We strongly recommend boots with ankle support and deep tread/rubber soles – it can be muddy, wet and slippery in the woodlands.  Some players may choose to wear wellies if it is muddy during the winter months – but it is up to each individual to decide if they want to choose a waterproof option rather than the safety of ankle support.  Paintball gloves are available to buy at the centre, or you can bring your own.  You may also want to bring some money for purchasing additional paintballs (we accept cash and credit/debit cards verified by PIN only.  Please note: fees apply to the use of credit and debit cards).
