Yes. All players are required to complete an online registration form before they arrive at the centre.
Under 16s: Players under 16 must have their form signed by a parent or guardian.
Group Tip: We recommend sending the registration link to your entire group with your invitations to ensure a fast check-in.
Accessing the Link: Please ask your event coordinator for your unique group link when finalizing your booking.
Booking your adventure is simple. We offer several flexible ways to secure your date at any of our UK centres:
Call Our Booking Office: For the fastest service and live availability, call our friendly event coordinators on 0203 869 9135. We can answer any questions and lock in your date immediately.
Online Enquiry: Complete our Online Booking Form, and a member of our team will contact you to finalise the details.
Request a Callback: If you prefer to speak at a specific time, simply email us or use our website's callback feature, and we will reach out whenever is most convenient for you.
Visit a Centre: You are welcome to visit your local centre to speak with a manager; however, this must be by appointment only. Please call our booking office first to arrange a suitable time to ensure a staff member is available to assist you.
Whether you are a solo player or a group of hundreds, we can accommodate you. There is no minimum or maximum group size for our standard sessions.
Joining the Action: Most groups are joined together with other players on the day to form larger teams. This ensures a high-energy atmosphere and more exciting game scenarios.
Private Games: If you would like a private game exclusively for your group, you typically need a minimum of 50 players. Private sessions are subject to availability and may incur an additional fee; please contact our booking office to discuss your requirements.
Midweek Bookings: While our centres are open every weekend, we can open mid-week for larger groups. These bookings usually require a minimum spend or player count to open the centre specifically for your event.
Solo Players & Small Groups: You are always welcome! We regularly host individuals and small parties, mixing you in with players of a similar age and experience level.
You can book with confidence even if your guest list isn't finalised. To ensure you don't miss out on your preferred date, we recommend the following:
Secure Your Date: Book for your minimum confirmed players now. This guarantees your space at the centre on your desired date.
Add Players Later: You can easily add additional players to your booking up until a few days before your event (subject to availability).
Flexible Organising: This allows you to send out your invitations knowing the venue is already locked in. Once you have more RSVPs, simply call our event coordinators to update your group size.
Avoid Disappointment: Our national centres are popular and dates do fill up fast. It is always better to secure a small group booking early than to wait and find the date is fully booked.
Delta Force Paintball UK centres are generally open 7 days a week, 364 days a year. We operate in almost all weather conditions to provide year-round action for our players.
Nationwide Access: Most of our national centres are available for bookings every day of the week.
Holiday Closures: Please note that we are closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and New Year’s Day. However, special requests for these dates may be considered for large groups or corporate events; please contact us for more information.
Peak Dates: Weekends and school holidays are our most popular times. We strongly recommend booking your desired date well in advance to avoid disappointment.
Live Availability: Because our schedule fills up quickly, the most accurate way to check a specific date is to contact our events team directly.

Delta Force Paintball offers safe, age-appropriate sessions for players starting from 7 years old. Our activities are divided into two categories based on equipment and intensity:
Mini-ball (Ages 7–10): A specialised, low-impact version of the game. We use lightweight, spring-loaded markers and smaller paintballs designed specifically for younger children. This ensures a fun, non-intimidating introduction to paintball.
Standard Paintball (Ages 10+): Our traditional paintball experience using full-size equipment.
Safety & Insurance: Our 100% safety record and 5-star UKPBA accreditation ensure that players of all ages are protected. While our insurance covers all players, we suggest that parents of 7 or 8-year-olds consider if their child is comfortable with an active, outdoor environment. If you are unsure, you are welcome to visit any of our national centres for a complimentary tour to see the equipment and games in action.
Find a Location: Mini-ball is available at all national centres. To find your nearest venue or to discuss your child's first game, please call our event coordinators on 0203 869 9135 or use our location finder here.
To ensure every mission is high-energy and competitive, we generally combine smaller groups to form larger teams. However, we offer flexible options for those seeking a more exclusive experience.
Our marshals divide teams equally based on age, group size, and experience level. This creates a safe, fair, and social environment where games remain challenging and enjoyable for everyone.
If your group prefers the exclusivity of playing only against each other, we offer Private Game packages. This provides your group with dedicated game zones and your own private marshals to manage your sessions throughout the day.
Additional Fees: For smaller groups, Private games do incur an additional fee to cover the cost of dedicated staffing and exclusive field use.
Large Groups (50+): Any group of 50+ players (please verify your specific center threshold) may qualify for a complimentary private game at no extra cost.
Small Group Privacy: For groups who desire a private experience, please contact our booking office to discuss applicable rates and availability.
Due to staffing requirements, private games must be arranged in advance. Please reach out to our team via:
UK Booking Line: 0203 869 9135
Live Chat: Available on our website for real-time quotes and availability.
We know that chasing people for money can be the hardest part of organising a group. To make the process as stress-free as possible, we offer flexible payment options:
Secure the Date: The group organiser typically secures the desired date by paying for the minimum number of confirmed players.
Individual Payments: We can often arrange for individual players to pay for their own packages, taking the pressure off the organiser.
Flexible Management: Whether you want to pay in one lump sum or have players call in separately, our team is here to help. Please speak with our event coordinators on 0203 869 9135 to discuss the best way to manage your group’s payments.
Add as You Go: You can add more players to your booking as they confirm their attendance, up until a few days before your event.
You can easily purchase extra supplies at any Delta Force Paintball UK shop during your event. Every national centre is fully stocked with everything you need to enhance your experience, from extra ammunition to tactical gear upgrades.
Paintball Refills: Stay in the action with additional paintballs available throughout the day.
Upgraded Gear: Purchase tactical gloves and other protective equipment for added comfort.
Pyrotechnics (18+ Only): Paintball grenades and smoke bombs are available for players aged 18 and over to add a tactical edge to your missions.
For your convenience, our national shops accept the following payment methods:
Debit & Credit Cards: Secure payments verified by PIN only.
Cash: We accept cash payments at all centres.
Please Note: We do not accept payment by cheque at any of our UK locations.
To speed up your morning check-in and get onto the game zones faster, we recommend having your payment method ready. If you are planning to use pyrotechnics, please ensure you have a valid photo ID available to verify you are 18 or older.
Planning a group event? To inquire about pre-paid paintball packages or current UK pricing, contact our national booking office on 0203 869 9135.
Paintball usage varies depending on your playing style, but a good rule of thumb for our UK centres is approximately 200 paintballs per game zone. Because every player is different—some prefer tactical sniping while others are more "trigger-happy"—the total amount you use is entirely up to you.
Flexible Play: You have the freedom to decide how many game zones you play throughout the day.
Pay-As-You-Play: Further paintballs are always available for purchase at any of our UK shops during your session, giving you full discretion over your spending.
Group Upgrades: Many groups prefer to get the group upgrade packages rather than opting to buy individual 100-ball pods every time. These packages offer better value and ensure your whole squad is well-stocked for the duration of the session.
To get the most out of your day, we recommend starting with a mid-sized bundle. In our larger, more immersive UK game zones—like the London Apocalypse or Castle Wallenberg—the action can get intense, and you won’t want to run out of paint in the middle of a mission!
We understand that plans can change at the last minute. While all payments are non-refundable and non-transferable, we aim to ensure you don't lose out:
Credit for Future Use: If a player is unable to attend on the day, their payment value can be carried forward as a credit on your booking profile. This credit can be applied to a future paintball booking at any of our centres.
Paintball Allocations: Please note that any paintball allocations or equipment included in the package for a "no-show" player are forfeited on the day. These cannot be transferred to or shared among other players in your group.
Notification: If you know in advance that your numbers have changed, please contact our booking office as soon as possible so we can update your profile.
To ensure your belongings are kept safe while you are on the field, we provide secure storage facilities at all of our national locations.
Locker Hire Lockers are available to hire for a small charge at each of our national paintball centres. These are designed to hold personal items and valuables.
How to Hire To secure a locker, please visit the on-site shop upon arrival to hire a key. We recommend doing this during the registration process to ensure you are ready for the safety briefing.
Valuables and Car Keys We strongly recommend using these lockers to store your valuables, car keys, and any spare clothing. This keeps them clean, dry, and secure while you are active in the game zones.
Large Bags While we provide lockers for essentials, we suggest leaving large or non-essential items in your locked vehicle to ensure locker space remains available for all guests.
To ensure your group stays hydrated and energised, please note our on-site facilities:
On-Site Shop: Our base camp shops are fully stocked with a wide selection of cold drinks, bottled water, energy drinks, and snacks (chocolates, crisps, and sweets) available for purchase.
Bring Your Own: Customers are encouraged to bring their own refreshments and packed lunches. We provide sheltered seating areas in the base camp where your group can eat and drink between games.
Important Note: We do not provide complimentary drinking water or hot food on-site. We strongly recommend that all players bring sufficient water for an active outdoor session or carry funds to purchase drinks at the shop.
Payment: We accept cash and PIN-verified credit/debit cards at all centre shops.
From the moment you arrive, our team ensures your experience is professional, safe, and high-energy. A typical session follows this itinerary:
Arrival & Registration: You will be greeted by our friendly staff for check-in. To ensure a fast-track entry, please ensure all players have completed their online registration forms before arriving at the centre.
Kitting Up: Once checked in, you will be issued with your professional-grade gear, including your full-head goggle system, bespoke body armour, and full-body combat suit.
Compulsory Safety Briefing: Before the action begins, all players must attend a professional safety briefing. This covers equipment handling, game zone rules, and our strict safety protocols.
The Action Starts: You will head out to our themed game zones to play 4–6 varied games per session. Each game features a different objective to test your team's strategy and skill.
To ensure a smooth start to your day, we provide several tools to help you find our woodland entrances easily:
Use your Booking PDF: Upon booking, you will receive a confirmation email with a printable map and detailed directions. We recommend sharing this PDF with every driver in your group before you set off.
what3words Integration: For pinpoint accuracy, we use what3words for all our UK venues. This provides a precise 3-metre square location for the centre entrance. You can find the unique three-word address on your booking PDF, or call our team to request it.
Sat Nav Caution: While Sat Nav is useful, woodland entrances can be discreet. Please cross-reference your GPS with our specific directions and what3words address to ensure you reach the correct gate.
Live Support: If you are struggling to find us on the day, please call our event coordinators on 0203 869 9135. Our team can provide you with the direct contact details for the on-site centre manager to help guide you to the car park.
We offer both morning and afternoon sessions, with each session lasting approximately 3 hours.
Session Structure: Our games are designed to provide a high-intensity, immersive experience within a structured 3-hour window.
Centre-Specific Times: Operating times can vary slightly between our UK locations. To confirm the exact start and finish times for your chosen centre, please check your booking PDF.
Need more info? For specific availability or to book a session, please contact our UK booking office on 0203 869 9135.
No. Delta Force Paintball operates a strict zero-alcohol policy at all our national centres to ensure the safety of all participants.
Safety & Insurance: Due to the physical nature of paintball and our commitment to a 5-star safety record, alcohol is strictly prohibited in both the base camp and the game zones. Our insurance policies require all players to be fully alert and unimpaired.
Entry Requirements: Any player who is found to be under the influence of alcohol, or who attempts to bring alcohol onto the premises, will be excluded from the event and asked to leave the centre immediately without a refund.
Post-Game Celebrations: While we want you to enjoy your day, we ask that you save any alcoholic celebrations for after you have left our venue.
Yes, you are more than welcome to eat at our centres. To ensure your group stays energised for the day's missions, we provide the following facilities:
Picnics & Packed Lunches: We encourage players to bring their own packed lunches and plenty of fluids. Staying hydrated is key to a great day on the field!
Sheltered Base Camp: Every centre features a large, sheltered base camp with picnic seating. This is your "safe zone" where your group can relax and enjoy their food after game sessions.
On-Site Snacks: Our on-site shops stock a selection of cold drinks, chocolates, and light snacks should you need a quick energy boost.
Catering Note: Please note that we do not offer on-site catering (such as hot meals) or food delivery services.
Celebrating a Birthday? You are more than welcome to bring a birthday cake to the base camp to celebrate with your group.
Yes, sessions at Delta Force Paintball UK proceed in almost all weather conditions. Paintball is a premier all-weather outdoor activity, and our centres nationwide are fully equipped to ensure your group has a world-class experience, even in wet weather.
Sheltered Base Camp: Every UK centre features large undercover areas to keep your group dry and comfortable between missions.
Secure Lockers: We provide on-site lockers at all locations to ensure your valuables and dry clothes remain protected while you are on the field.
Tactical Challenge: Many UK players find that rain adds an extra layer of excitement and tactical challenge to our immersive outdoor game zones.
In the unlikely event that a session cannot proceed due to extreme weather, safety concerns, or "Force Majeure Events" (circumstances beyond reasonable human control), Delta Force Paintball reserves the right to issue a full-value credit for the booking instead of a refund.
Credit Flexibility: This credit is valid for a future booking date at any of our available locations.
Fully Transferable: The credit may be used by the original customer or transferred to another person.
Safety Standards: Decisions to postpone are only made if a Centre Manager deems conditions unsafe for players or staff.
British weather can be unpredictable! We highly recommend bringing a towel and a spare change of clothes to leave in your vehicle. This ensures a warm and comfortable journey home after the action.
A typical day is divided into two sessions:
Morning Session: Approx. 10:00 am – 1:00 pm (Winter: 9:00 am – 12:00 pm)
Afternoon Session: Approx. 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm (Winter: 12:30 pm – 3:30 pm) Expect to play 4–6 varied game zones during your session, with refreshment breaks in between.
For the best safety and comfort on the day, we recommend the following:
Footwear: We strongly recommend boots with ankle support and deep tread. Woodland terrain can be slippery, and proper grip is essential for active play. While wellington boots are waterproof, they typically lack the necessary ankle support for running. Old trainers are acceptable, but sandals, flip-flops, and open-toed shoes are strictly prohibited.
Clothing: Wear old, comfortable clothing (such as tracksuits or leggings) underneath the full-body combat suit we provide. We highly recommend bringing a complete change of clothes and a towel for the end of the day.
Professional Safety Gear (Included): Your admission includes our industry-leading protection: full-head goggles, bespoke body armour, and a combat suit with an integrated padded neck collar.
Armoured Gloves: While we protect your head and body, your hands remain a sensitive area. Armoured gloves are available for purchase at our on-site shop to provide maximum protection during gameplay.
Payment: Please bring cash or a card (PIN-verified) for the shop. You will need this for snacks, refreshments, or purchasing extra paintballs and equipment upgrades.
To protect the beautiful woodland environments where our centres are located, we have a strict Environmental Protection Policy:
Prohibited Items: We do not allow confetti cannons, party poppers, glitter, or any similar items on-site.
The Reason: These items often contain non-biodegradable plastics and micro-materials that are impossible to clear from the forest floor and can be harmful to local wildlife.
Celebrating Responsibly: We love hosting birthday parties and celebrations! We encourage you to bring balloons (which must be taken home with you) or themed banners to decorate your table in the base camp instead.
Keep It Green: Helping us keep our game zones litter-free ensures that the woodland remains a pristine environment for all players to enjoy.
While we provide industry-leading equipment, you are welcome to bring certain items of your own gear. Please note that all personal equipment is subject to the final approval of the Centre Manager on the day.
Goggles: You may use your own goggles provided they are specifically designed for paintball, feature a full-face mask, and have not been modified. They must be in good condition to meet our safety standards.
Paintball Markers (Guns): You may bring your own marker to our national centres only if you have booked a Private Game. The marker must be compatible with Delta Force gas bottles and will be subject to a mandatory chronograph test to ensure it meets our safe firing-speed limits.
Gas Cylinders (Strict Policy): We DO NOT allow customers to bring their own gas cylinders to any of our centres under any circumstances. This is a strict safety protocol to ensure the integrity of the equipment on-site.
Paintballs: For safety and insurance reasons, we operate a "Site-Only" paint policy. Only paintballs purchased at the centre may be used.
Armoured Gloves: Many regular players choose to bring their own armoured gloves, or you can purchase a professional pair at our on-site shop.
No. For health, safety, and environmental reasons, only paintballs issued by Delta Force on the day of your event may be used.
Quality & Safety: We ensure our paintballs are fresh and stored correctly so they break on impact. Paintballs taken off-site cannot be brought back and used at a later date, as we cannot verify their storage conditions or safety once they leave our care.
Environmental Protection: We use only fully biodegradable paintballs to protect the local woodland ecosystems.
Banking Unused Paint: If you have paintballs left over at the end of your session, you don’t have to lose them! You can leave them with the Centre Manager, who will credit the remaining amount to your booking profile for use on your next visit.
At Delta Force Paintball, your comfort and safety are our highest priorities. While you may feel a slight "sting" similar to a quick flick of a rubber band, our industry-leading safety gear is specifically designed to minimise impact.
To ensure a comfortable experience, we provide all players with:
Bespoke Body Armour: Our custom-designed plates protect the torso, significantly reducing the feel of any impact.
Full-Body Combat Suits: These thick suits feature integrated padded neck collars for extra protection in sensitive areas.
Full-Head Goggle Systems: Our goggles wrap entirely around the head, protecting the ears, temples, and face.
Professional Marshalling: Our marshals enforce a "strict distance rule," ensuring no one is shot from close range.
Pro-Tip for Comfort: For maximum comfort, we recommend wearing loose, layered clothing (like gym wear) underneath your combat suit. This adds a natural buffer while allowing you to move freely through game zones.
Extra Protection: Armoured tactical gloves are highly recommended to protect your hands and knuckles. These are available for purchase at our on-site shop on the day of your event.
Yes. Delta Force Paintball is a 5-star accredited member of the UKPBA (United Kingdom Paintball Association) and we maintain a 100% safety record. Beyond being safe, it is a fantastic activity for building teamwork, confidence, and physical fitness.
To ensure a safe and comfortable experience, we provide age-specific equipment:
Mini-ball (Ages 7–10): A specialised, ultra-low-impact version of the game. We use lightweight, spring-loaded markers designed specifically for younger children to ensure a fun, non-intimidating introduction to the sport.
Standard Paintball (Ages 10+): For our older juniors and adults, we have upgraded our entire fleet to .50 calibre markers. These provide a much lower impact and a more comfortable experience than traditional older markers, significantly reducing bruising while maintaining all the excitement of the game.
Industry-Leading Gear: Regardless of age, all players are issued with full-head protection goggles, custom-fit body armour, and full-body combat suits with integrated neck padding as standard.
Professional Supervision: Every game is led by trained marshals who focus on safety, fair play, and ensuring every child feels included.
Information for Parents: You can request our comprehensive ‘Information for Parents’ guide from our booking team on 0203 869 9135.
Site Visits (By Appointment Only): We understand that organisers and parents may wish to see our facilities first-hand. To ensure a staff member is available to assist you without interrupting active game sessions, site visits are available by appointment only.
How to Arrange a Visit: Please contact our events team at least 48 hours in advance to schedule a time to visit your local centre.
At Delta Force Paintball, we believe the adventure should be accessible to as many people as possible. There are no strict height or weight restrictions, though we do recommend the following for your comfort and safety:
Bespoke Equipment: We provide custom-designed body armour and combat suits in a wide range of sizes. Our equipment is adjustable and designed to accommodate various body types comfortably.
Mobility & Terrain: Our game zones are located in natural woodland. Players should be able to navigate uneven bushland terrain, slopes, and forest floors reasonably comfortably.
Safety First: For your safety, we must be able to ensure that our protective goggles and body armour fit correctly and securely.
Ask our Team: If you have specific concerns about sizing or mobility, please call our booking office. Our team is experienced in assisting groups of all sizes and can provide further details on our equipment specifications.
We take great care in how we group our players to ensure a safe and balanced experience for everyone.
Mini-ball (Ages 7–10): To maintain a safe and fun environment for our youngest players, adults are not permitted to play in Mini-ball sessions. These games are strictly for children, ensuring they play with and against others of a similar age, size, and ability.
Standard Paintball (Ages 10+): For our standard sessions, we aim to group players by age where possible. However, you may see mixed-age groups if parents wish to play alongside their children or if there are older siblings in a booking.
Professional Supervision: Regardless of the age group, all games are led by our professional marshals who remain on the field at all times to enforce safety rules and ensure fair play.
