Once again i was browsing Ebay, like i do day in day out, and i found a paintball company selling sets of tickets cheap. They have many centre across the UK and i was going to see if there was enough interest to try and get this organised.

I wanted to do something like this with a load of mates anyway, and decided the more the better,so why not give it a go??

The "Buy it now" price of £29.99 is for 8 tickets, that works out at £3.70 a person

The only other fee's you would have to pay for is paintballs;

£8 for the first 100, and £5 for every additional 100 but this gets cheaper depending on the size of the group.

Below is the information pasted from the Ebay Page, With Links.

The event would be held at PepperWood, Plymouth.

What is included in each ticket:

Free access to the paintball centre & a full day of paintball action.
Full instruction provided.
10 different games & missions.
Full supervision by friendly experienced marshals.
Free equipment hire - Goggles, head guard, combat suit, ninja hood & commando battle-pack
Free latest semi automatic machine gun
Awesome fire-power! Capable of firing up to 7 rounds a second.
(Free gas included)

thats's not cheap.
Go direct to the paintballing site themselves. most of them work out at about £50 to £55 for all day including a meal and drinks for the day with 1000 balls. With bigger discounts for large bookings.

On that deal you'd have to pay £53 just for a days worth of balls plus your £3.70 plus your food and drinks(which bought on site would probably be extortionate. And don't forget you might get the large group discount if you book with the site owners themselves.

hey!! paintball, im an avid paintball player, and no its not cheap, oh and the guns you use sound like these



there called inferno and are pretty good starter guns, oh and the ammunition can be expensive at times.
its sooo much fun though
any queries just ask

[CharlieBrown]

mmmuaahhhh, paint balling, oh yer!, now thats a good idea!

As Alburglar said going to the site might be the best idea.

Might be better doing it more central so that its easier for everyone to get there.

Does sound like it could be organised though.
