Nothern Paintball Home  
 Welcome
Here are the rules for playing on the field:

* Barrel plugs/covers are required for each gun. These must be in the barrel at all times unless playing on the field or at the target range. They must remain in the barrel until the horn sounds for game start and are placed back in the barrel immediately upon elimination from play or sounding of horn ending the game.

* Face masks must be worn by all players at all times while on the playing field. They may not be removed at all, even if fogged up and you are just wiping them clean. (Use a goggle fan system or defogging spray before going onto the field).

* All guns must chrono under 300fps.

* Electronic guns are allowed. They must be set at a semi-auto rate of fire. There may be games played where a faster rate of fire will be allowed.

* A hit is a break or splatter from a paintball that measures larger than a nickel. When you are hit you are out. Put your barrel plug in and walk off the field with your gun above your head so other players know you are out and not still in play. A hit is anything on the body from the jaw line down or on your gun/hopper. Head shots do not count unless specified for a specific game.

* If you declare yourself as out you must leave the field. Even if afterwards you realize that the ball did not break you are still out.

* If a fellow teammate hits you, you are still in the game unless you call yourself out.

* You may not communicate with other players after you have been hit out.

* Leave obstacles and fortifications as you find them.

* No blind firing. You must be looking at your target when you pull the trigger of your marker.

* No fighting! We are playing for fun. We all get a little angry from time to time while playing. Just walk away and cool down, in most cases the adrenaline has blinded us from what really happened. If you are having a major problem with someone and how they are playing, please report it.

* Play fair. Word will get around eventually about those who continually cheat. Its one thing to not notice when a equipment canister hanging on your back has been hit and you play on not realizing it, it is another matter to purposely wipe a hit and continue to play. Listen as you play, most likely your opponent will yell at you if you have been hit but are still playing because you never felt it. Call for a paintcheck and have yourself looked over if you doubt a ball has broken on you.

* Games will start with and end with a blow from a air horn.

* Boundaries are marked with yellow topped t-posts or strung rope. While in play you may not leave boundaries.

* The referee’s word is final!
