Does is hurt when hit by a paintball?

The best way we can describe the feeling of being hit by a paintball is ‘ouch’. It gives you a sting similar to being stung by an elastic band but once you have the first one under the belt and the adrenalin is pumping there is no greater thrill. Don’t stress about the pain it isn’t too bad.

If your group is refereed correctly it is un-sociable to get shot within 5 meters so any tag you receive should leave a small red mark on the skin. Ladies receive free half armour (so only your arms and legs are exposed) and everyone can grab complimentary gloves. Body Armour Half body armour covers your entire torso, front and back. The majority of paintball tags will occur in this area, which makes half armour a great option. It does not restrict movement, and you won’t get too hot when you wear it. Half body armour is supplied FREE OF CHARGE to all female and younger players.
