What makes this a great venue for School group Fun or Educational Visits?

Skirmish paintball is a great way to nuture and develop many important life skills in an environment that young people will respond to. Ideal for school excursions and activity days, Skirmish paintball have developed a range of game scenarios which provide a naturally exciting and mentally stimulating environment.

A day of paintball provides young people with a physical and mental workout that will have them running around breathing in fresh air while making them think on their feet. Under the supervision of highly trained marshals, Skirmish paintball is designed to assist in the development of leadership, team work, self confidence and problem solving.

What are the Curriculum Topics or Benefit to the students from a visit?

Skirmish Paintball Games have more than 25 years experience in running paintball games. We offer the best and most professional paintballing experience in the UK and as accrediated members of the United Kingdom Paintball Sports Federation, ensure the highest standards of entertainment and safety.

Everybody loves an action hero, be it for real or just in the movies. It’s a tough old world out there, and whatever the scenario, there will always be losers as well as winners. The important thing is to play an active part.

Paintballing gives you the chance to do just that – be part of a team that has a job to do, a mission to complete, players to protect, comrades to rescue. Be a soldier, a marksman, a quick-thinker, a strategist, a team-player, and a survivor but, above all, take part and get involved in one of the most demanding and most fun activities that you will ever experience.

In effect have a go at being your own real life action hero!
