First Strike Paintball Home Page

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Safety is one of our fundamentel objectives. Due to recent events it is necessary for us to "BAN" the use of "Brass Eagle" brand paintballs (i.e. "Monster") for use at our field. It is our experience this brand of paintballs does not adequately "break" on impact causing bounces and excessive bruising. As of July 1st, 2007 "Monster" paintballs will no longer be allowed in any markers.

NEWS FLASH

FSP Charity Event - April 13th, 2008

Each year in Gainesville, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society has an MS Walk. This is a 3 mile walk and this year is being held at Hawthorne State Trail. Several teams, consisting of family and friends, come together and raise money. All money raised stays in the north-central Florida district. First Strike is participating in this by giving percentage of the receipts on April 13 to the MS Society. Please come and help by purchasing a Hopper Pack or Player Pack and playing paintball for the day.

This year's walk is April 19th and starts at 8:00 a.m. We would love to have you walk with us; but most of all we are extremely thankful that you are supporting us through one of our fundraisers. For additional information, please contact Dana Alliston 352-804-5937.

MISSION

To insure every CUSTOMER has an "EXCEEDS" expectation time at the game of paintball. This translates not only into a "FUN" time but one that challenges every level of competitiveness.

Who Plays?

Church Groups, Birthday Parties, Athletic Teams (Basketball, football, soccer, swim team, etc.) Boy/Girl/Cub Scouts, Bachelor Parties, Fraternities, Sororities, Corporations, Team Builders, and Walk-ons. It is also provides excellent training for Stress Management, Leadership, Strategic Planning, Tactics, Teamwork, Crisis Management, Decision Making, Problem Solving, and Delegation.

Do you have "Game"?

It does not matter whether you are young or old this is a SPORT for "ALL AGES." The employment of strategy, tactics, teamwork, and the ability to "outsmart" the enemy is just the beginning. To win a team must utilize all of its resources, remain calm while under attack, and implement plan "B" when plan "A" is not going as planned. The "Art" of WAR at its best where everyone is a survivor at the end of the day; only to return again to prove they are worthy and HAVE GAME!

What do I need to Play?

You can bring your own equipment or rent (see pricing for details) ours. The equipment consists of: an Approved Safety Mask, Paintball Gun (marker), Hopper, and Paintballs.

Prior to playing on the field you must attend a safety meeting and sign a waiver. If you are under the age of eighteen the waiver must be signed by your parent or legal guardian. You can buy our field paint or bring your own paint. If you bring your own paint there is no additional admission charge. It is suggested you wear Dark Clothing - it is harder to see you as a target by the enemy. If you wear a white T-Shirt expect to be a BIG TARGET since everyone can see you! Most importantly, bring a good attitude and be prepared to have a GREAT TIME!
