WHAT ARE THE BASICS RULES ?

       A bsolutely no physical contact. Do not say or do anything to provoke an argument or start a fight. It is strictly against the rules to pretend to be eliminated, to fake an injury, a paint check or surrender. Armband must be in plain sight around your arm, do not attempt to hide it.

       Y ou may not improvise or carry a portable shield. Stay within the designated boundaries. If you, your marker, your equipment, or anything you are carrying is hit with a paintball, and the resulting "splat" is bigger that a quarter, you are out.

       D o not speak or communicate with any of your surviving teammates, if you do, they will be disqualified. In the case of a simultaneous elimination, both players are out. If your own team accidentally tags you, you are out. If you are about to be tagged at point-blank range, you may surrender. If you surrender, you are out. Once you indicate that you have been eliminated in any way, you are out, regardless of the circumstances.

       A lways have your mask and goggles firmly in place when on, or near, the playing field, regardless have whether or not a game is in progress. No velocity adjusting tools allowed on the playing field. No pyrotechnics, explosive devices or knives. Do not climb trees. No building fires or trip lines. Do not shoot at wildlife. Do not pick up old paintballs.

       N o markers with the CO2 tank attached allowed in the safety area at any time. If your goggles accidentally fall off while on the playing field, fall to ground, cover eyes and yell, "FREEZE!" until a referee comes to assist you. Do not attempt to find goggles yourself.
