Are you fully insured? - Show Answer

Absolutely, all of our customers are covered by our £5million public liability paintball insurance.

Do parents have to supervise? - Show Answer

All we ask here at Skirmish is that parents listen to the safety briefing given to all customers at the start of their session.
The safety briefing is very important and is the first time your children will get to know their marshals. Once you/we are satisfied you can leave them with us and have a quiet few hours...but remember to pick them up!

Do you offer discounts for groups? - Show Answer

Here st Skirmish we run an organiser bonus offer for adult groups of 5 players or more. We also have special offer packages available! Please call us for details on 01162 512 378.

Do you offer gift vouchers? - Show Answer

Yes! It's not always easy deciding on Christmas or birthday presents, try something different and call us for a gift voucher. This can be ordered and paid for over the phone by card on 01162 512 378

Does it hurt? - Show Answer

Another popular question! Getting shot is not the greatest pleasure in the world!
Paintballing is great fun, and a safe; well supervised activity. When you are hit by a paintball you can expect it to sting and leave a small mark (or even a bruise in some areas), but with the adrenaline pumping the pain will be the last thing on your mind!

How many paintballs will we need? - Show Answer

One of the most common questions we get! Although we cannot tell you precisely, we CAN advise that on a half day you will need a minimum of 300 paintballs each and a full day a minimum of 500 paintballs each. Only you are in control of the trigger!

I know which date i want, but not sure on the amount of players, can i provisionally book? - Show Answer

Of course you can, we appreciate that organising a group of people can be a little time consuming to say the least! We normally make a provisional booking for you and hold the places for a couple of weeks before we ask for any payment.

Is it safe? - Show Answer

Safety is our main priority. All of the games are supervised by our fully trained marshals, they are there to help you...so don't be afraid to ask! They also make sure everyone plays fairly and safely. Goggles must NOT be removed unless you are in the base camp area.

What do we do with valuables on the day? - Show Answer

We have lockers on site, keys are available for a £5 refundable deposit.

What time do we start? - Show Answer

Full days start at 9.15am and finish at 4pm, half day mornings start at 9.15am and finish at 12.30pm and half day afternoons start at 1pm and finish at 4pm
