🎯 Legacy Sports Paintball – Frequently Asked Questions
🎯 General Experience
❓ What should I wear to play paintball?
Always wear appropriate footwear. If you're renting equipment, we provide all necessary protective gear. For clothing, wear comfortable clothes that are easy to move in—a lightweight long-sleeved shirt for the upper body and jeans, track pants, joggers, or basketball shorts for the lower body.
❓ Is paintball safe? What safety measures are in place?
Yes — paintball is very safe, with an injury rate lower than sports like tennis or football (0.2 per 1,000 participants). All players receive a safety briefing. Staff supervise all games. There's a 15-foot surrender rule, and markers must be chronographed under 300 FPS.
❓ Do I need prior experience to play?
Not at all! No experience is necessary. Our staff ensures a safe and welcoming introduction for new players.
❓ Is there an age limit or minimum age to play?
Yes, players must be at least 10 years old. For private party packages, children as young as 8 may participate. All minors must have a parent or guardian sign a waiver.
❓ Do I need to sign a waiver?
Yes. All players must sign our digital safety waiver annually or when updated. Complete it online before arrival. Find it via the “Safety Waiver” link in our website's main menu.
❓ Can I bring my own equipment?
Yes, you’re encouraged to. All paint must be purchased on-site—outside paint is prohibited. No first-strike rounds allowed. All markers must be chronographed under 300 FPS.
❓ How long does a typical paintball session last?
Most players stay 2–3 hours, some all day. Games run 15 minutes with 5-minute breaks. Expect 4–5 games per hour.
