Gel Ball: Gel Ball is perfect for ages 5+ Including Teens, Adults & Grandparents! Gel Ball is very low impact... We've even had little ones as young as 3 play when accompanied by an adult.Airsoft: Airsoft has a higher impact and uses replica rifles, which is why we recommend players be at least 12 years old to play. However, we will accommodate players as young as 10 years old as long as they are comfortable with the equipment, intensity of play and game strategy.
Archery Tag is geared for ages 10-12 and up. It has a medium impact depending on the distance between players. We can always work in a little Archery Tag for your group.

For either Activity, we require and provide Eye & Face Protection.

For Gel Ball, players should wear Closed-Toe Shoes with good traction. Players should wear clothes appropriate tor the weather and season while allowing the greatest range of movement. Keep in mind that play may include kneeling, crouching or laying on the ground, so players should dress appropriately to protect themselves and not be concerned if clothing is stained, ripped or ruined.
For Airsoft, we recommend players wear everything mentioned above, and also bring a hat, light gloves, and/or neck gaiter to further protect themselves. Players may also chose to wear camouflage or dark clothing.
For those who wear prescription glasses, we suggest you wear contacts if possible. However, our goggles often fit over your glasses.
We will provide eye and face protection for all activities that require it. Our Goggles are mandatory for players at all times, and may not be taken off during active game play or while on the field. -
