A]. A MINIMUM OF 12 PEOPLE UNLESS WE ALREADY HAVE A GAME ON THE DAY YOU WANT TO PLAY, IF WE HAVE YOU CAN COME ON YOUR OWN OR WITH JUST A COUPLE OF FRIENDS.
Q]. HOW MANY PAINTBALLS SHOULD I EXPECT TO GET THROUGH IN A DAY?
A]. THAT DEPENDS ENTIRLY ON YOU! YOU ARE IN CONTROL OF THE TRIGGER AND YOUR BUDGET BUT THE AVERAGE AMOUNT OF PAINTBALLS USED BY AN ADULT AT ANY PAINTBALL CENTRE IN THE U.K. IS AROUND 800 PAINTBALLS PER PERSON PER DAY, {ASK ANYONE WHO`S BEEN PAINTBALLING BEFORE HOW MANY THEY GOT THROUGH}.
BE VERY CAREFUL IF A PAINTBALL SITE TELLS YOU A LOWER FIGURE LIKE AROUND 500 PER FULL DAY OR 300 FOR HALF A DAY AS THAT IS SIMPLY A LOAD OF BULL, ALL THEY ARE DOING IS TRYING TO MAKE PAINTBALL SOUND CHEAPER THAN IT ACTUALLY IS SO YOU WILL BOOK WITH THEM. MOST PAINTBALL CENTRE`S HAVE AT LEAST 8 TO 10 GAMES PER DAY AND YOU WILL NORMALLY USE AT LEAST 100 PAINTBALLS PER GAME... 500 PAINTBALLS USUALLY ONLY LASTS HALF A DAY!.. IF YOU ARE LUCKY... BUDGET FOR MORE PAINTBALLS THAN YOU THINK
