Young Gunz 

We host junior paintballing days for 10-13 and 14-16 year olds – these make excellent birthday paintball parties, family trips and school outings.  Groups of any size are very welcome; safety is our first priority, and all children are carefully supervised throughout the day.  Delta Force Paintball has an outstanding safety record and an enviable reputation for organising great kids days out.

"Thanks for an awesome day"
Mark Harris (aged 13)

Registration forms are completed by every player on arrival.  Delta Force staff will be on hand to help the children, but parents and/or teachers may find it saves time to download the forms from this website, and pre-complete them.  There is also a 'parental consent form' - this is not mandatory, it's simply our means of telling parents what to expect of the day (for example that the event may not be suitable for particularly timid children, and that minor bruising can result from a paintball impact).

Little people filling-in the registration forms before their paintball event (Dad and Marshal helping).

Once through into the basecamp it's time for the children to try-on all the gear and make sure that everything fits them perfectly.  Again, Delta Force staff will be on hand to help, so it is not necessary for parents to remain with the children (the exception here would be under 14's who might like a parent to stay on-site for a time). An Information for parents guideline with details of what children can expect from a day of paintball can be downloaded here.

Trying-on all the kit before the games begin.  Don't worry, everyone looks funny in the combat suits!

The Centre Manager will summon everyone to the stage when it's time for the safety presentation. It may be that your child feels at this point that he's been drafted into the army - and that's not a bad thing.  We require all children to pay very close attention the safety speech; it is at this time that the Centre Manager will clearly explain the safety regulations, the rules of the game, and how to use the equipment.  The Centre Manager delivers the speech from a stage, whilst Senior Marshals patrol the outer edge of the audience ensuring that everyone is paying attention. Parents often comment that Delta Force has a far greater awareness of safety than other paintball operators they have visited in the past.

This is the time to pay attention. The speech doesn't last long but it's very important.

When it's time for the players to leave the basecamp for their first game, the Centre Manager will summon them by team colour (they'll know which team they're on by the colour of their armband). Immediately before leaving the basecamp a marshal will 'touch-check' the goggles of every player to ensure their goggles are properly fitted and that the chin strap is securely fastened.  This practice is unique to Delta Force Paintball and very likely one of the reasons we have a 100% safety record.  With the chin strap fastened it is impossible for the helmet to become accidentally dislodged, it also prevents the goggles being deliberately removed (contrary to all instructions) in the 'heat of the moment'.  The other unique feature of Delta Force's goggle-system is that it fully encloses the head in a rigid plastic shell - with the top of the head entirely covered, it is impossible for the goggle unit to slip down the face, accidentally exposing the eyes.  After 20 years, we have truly thought of everything!

Delta Force staff 'touch-check' the goggles of every player, before every game.  We take your safety very seriously.

Players are not issued with a paintball gun until after the safety presentation, and even then they are never permitted to bring it into the gun-free basecamp.  All paintball guns remain outside the basecamp, at all times during the day.  It is from the 'gun zone' that the weapons are issued before each game, and taken back into safe-keeping once it ends. 

The guns always stay outside the netted safe zone (basecamp).  Marshals issue them at the start of every game.

All players are closely supervised throughout the day, and we pay particularly close attention to our younger guests.

A free 9" personal pizza is provided for lunch - this applies only to Juniors playing at a Delta Force Paintball centre (rather than a non-DF, Local Paintball centre) and taking one of our all inclusive Junior packages.  Otherwise, parents are welcome to bring lunch for their children to enjoy.  The pizzas are supplied hot and fresh each day by Perfect Pizza (or similar national chain) - they retail for £7.99 in the pizza shops, and are supplied to Delta Force's adult clients at £4.99 - so having them INCLUDED in the Junior packages is really good value.  And all kids love pizza!

At lunchtime we all break for a much needed Pizza!

Another six games follow the lunch break, and then the day ends with a prize giving ceremony at which the scores are reviewed and certificates are awarded to the winning team and to the runners-up.  

It's the end of another great Young Gunz event at Delta Force Paintball in Surrey

How many paintballs do players need?  This is a very common question – and there is no easy answer. It simply depends how many times the player chooses to pull the trigger, and how much the bill-payer wants to indulge him/her.  The average use across the entire the company (by Juniors and Adults) is 400-500 paintballs per person per day – children generally use fewer paintballs than adults. Parents should decide their budget, and make their selection of package accordingly.  It is recommended that children attending birthday parties be advised to bring a bit of pocket money along if they wish to buy extra ammo over-and-above that provided for in the package.  Extra paintballs can be purchased at any time during the day.

The 300 paintball package is the option most often selected by parents for children’s parties.

Extra paintballs, if required, can be purchased at a cost of £5.99 per 100 in bulk (a box of 2000 paintballs) or £6.99 per 100 (a bag of 100 paintballs) in England and Wales and for £6.99 per 100 in bulk (a box of 2000 paintballs) or £7.99 per 100 (a bag of 100 paintballs) in Scotland.

Times are approximate and given for guidance only.  Game zones vary from centre to centre.

Please note:  At the smaller 'Local Paintball Centres' (not owned by Delta Force) - identified with a yellow icon on the 'Locations' page of this website, the nature of the equipment, game zones, catering arrangements and so on will be different.  Most of these centres do not provide a free pizza lunch; they may also offer different packages.  Don't worry though, if you wish to play at one of these centres, simply talk to one of our friendly Event Co-ordinators on 0844 477 5050, and they will guide you through it all.  95% of the UK's population is within 45 minutes drive of a Delta Force Paintball centre but we have JV agreements with good outlying 'Local Paintball Centres' to help those of you who live too far away to visit a DF centre.
