If you need further details, please contact Clare and Dan on 01342 870870 and we will be happy to help.
Does it hurt when you are shot with a paintball?
Getting shot is not pleasant - it does sting a bit and can leave a red mark, or, if close range, at can bruise. We issue Body Armour to all our little kids to make sure they are well protected and everyone has a full set of goggles which protect the eyes, ears, face and head, along with a hood which has additional padding for the throat, ears and head.
How many kids do we need for a kids paintballing session?
On our open days held on set dates you can bring as few or as many as you like, we keep youngsters together on the same team but join them in with other kids.
How many Kids do I need for a private Paintball paty?
For large groups of 16 or more players you can have a private Kids Paintballing party - on these sessions can pick any date and timing (each session is around 3 and a half hours long) and parents are welcome to join in. You have your own seating area, dedicated team of Skirmish Paintball staff and no one else joins your battle.
Can Adults join in?
Only on Private Kids Paintball parties - its youngsters only the Open Kids Paintball Parties I`m afraid - one too many competitive dads in the past!
How many Paintballs do we need?
We advise a total of 300 Paintballs per player for our half day kids paintballing parties. There is little chance of making 100 paintballs last as kids being kids, they will blast away at anything that moves - including me! If you are one the 300 paintball package then we will issue the kids with 100 paintballs each for every 2 games we play (we play 6 games of paintball on each session) so they don`t just blast it all off in the gun range.
Do we get lunch?
We serve up Hotdogs after the first two games to keep everyone going - choccy bars are available but feel free to bring along any snacks or food you want. Tea, Coffee and squash is free on each session.
Whats the age range?
For our Kids paintballing sessions we are fully insured for ages 10 - 15. Anyone under 10 will have to wait a little longer I`m afraid.
I hear we can use Tesco Clubcards at Skirmish Surrey, Sussex and Kent?
Yes, you can use clubcards on our Standard Half-day Young Gun package. I`m afraid we cannot except them as payment for additional paintballs.
Do you split groups up?
No, we do our best to keep all groups together on the same team.
What if it rains?
Ah, good old England, we all love discussing the weather - we do play if it rains - our Safe Zone has loads of covered seating, the Woodland is in a dell so we rarely get wind and if its cold we always build a big, warming fire.
What do parents do?
Its up to you - some parents like to drop their kids off and go off to do some shopping or grab lunch, some like to see their kids get dressed up in all the gear, watch the sefety speaches and gun demo`s then shoot off - others like to stay the whole afternoon. If you do stay the whole afternoon I suggest bringing a newspaper or book whilst they are out paintballing in the woods. If in doubt, we advise you stay for the safety speaches then take it from there.
What are the timings?
For our Kids open Paintball Sessions the timing are 12.00 - 3.30 (aim for an 11.45 arrival). If you are having a Private Kids Paintball Party then you can choose your timings, though 10.00 - 1.30 and 12.00 - 3.30 are the most popular.
Can I bring a Birthday Cake?
Oh yes. At the end of the session we finish off with an awards presentation and a slice of cake is a great way to end the day - I also offer a personal "cake tasting" service if required.
