My son and I came for a 14th birthday party. We only had a small group of five boys. All of the…read moreboys were 14 years old except for one who is 12. We went on a weekend in August at the hottest possible time of the year. We did get there as they opened to try to manage the heat a bit better. The boys watched a safety video along with another group before getting started. And what are the boys in our group knew to get extra padding and also wore a thick hoodie because his dad had been before. this is a great tip for a first time or if you don't plan on buying all of the padding. The thick hoodies will help protect your neck and parts of your body that might get hit. You also want to wear thicker pants to protect yourself. The staff was very good about telling our kids how to load the guns, how to hold the guns, what to do with the trigger if it failed, etc.. Also, our guy was very good about making sure the kids kept their safety goggles on all times and put on their safety nozzle on their paint gun as they were leaving. I can say this is really important. One of our boys forgot to put his safety on his gun and bent down to tie his shoes. His gun shot off in front of another boy. Luckily, he missed him and anyone else. As soon as the moms noticed, we were yelling to put the safety on. The boys got to go between two different setups. Our time in each went pretty quick because the boys would get each other out. One of our boys goes to a shooting range regularly. I would definitely say he had an advantage. After reading some of the other reviews, I was a little worried that they would put the boys in with professionals, but that never happened. The boys did get put in with a mom and son duo for a few games. They were pretty good, but they were also nice and played well with our boys. The mom even gave her paintball grenade to the birthday boy. It was super hot. I definitely suggest bringing a small ice chest with water. It also came in handy that I had a towel to wipe off paint, blood, and/or dirt. My son ended up getting pelted the most. It was painful for him. He got hit in the neck, stomach, legs, upper thigh, and arms. It's four days later, and closer up shots are still a bit bruised and sore. The kids really seem to enjoy themselves. The cost was reasonable. For one and a half hours it cost about $25 per person. Then you do have to buy the paint which was $50 a box. We ended up with a box left over because the boys only went through one. Fun and active activity for kids to go to. I am not sure if I would bring kids younger than 14 and if we go back, it would definitely be in the fall or the winter.

We had my son's birthday party at Combat Paintball Zone, and it exceeded every expectation! We…read morebooked the Gel Blaster party for ages 5+, and it was an absolute blast--not just for the kids, but for the adults too! The staff was incredible from start to finish. They were knowledgeable, professional, and made safety a top priority while still making sure everyone had an amazing time. They never rushed us, checked in often to make sure we had everything we needed, and even let me arrive early to decorate and set up before the party. It's also a bonus we can bring in any food/drinks/decorations and stay as long as we like! I was especially impressed with how they handled the weather. We had high wind warnings that day, and I was worried the party would be canceled. The staff reassured me that they know the area well and that their location is protected from the wind. They were absolutely right--the wind died down, and the weather ended up being perfect! The fields are huge, and the picnic areas have plenty of tables, shade, and space for larger groups. We had more than enough room for our party, and everyone was comfortable. My son had the best birthday, and I couldn't be happier that we chose Combat Paintball Zone. If you're looking for a birthday party, group event, or just something fun to do, this is the place. The Gel Blasters are so much fun, even for adults! We can't wait to come back!

So much love for the team here - we were a group of 7 recently on a bachelor party. We had a…read morereservation time at 6pm (closing time is 8pm) The dinner we had planned for before was at 5, which we did not make it to until 5:30 so we were a bit behind. We didn't arrive to Combat until 7:15. Understandably, we could start our normal session that late and that was our bad. But the guys here went above and beyond by still letting us hold some guns and take turns shooting our bachelor whilst he ran the gauntlet. They didn't have to do that since it was our bad for being late, but to turn what would have been a sad uber there and immediately have to uber again out of there to a super fun yet shorter experience, it truly was a highlight of our trip.

The staff actually looked happy to be there, which you don't see everywhere anymore.

Figured with all the advertising maybe the deals were going to be good. That was completely wrong. Store front advertises everything 50% off. Then I go to see the shoes, understandably a very small selection so instead of getting 40 odd dollar FILAs for 30 something I chose a more comfortable better quality competitor product for about 40 at about a 60% discount elsewhere. Then to color coordinate I chose a Gamma Voltage paddle which with the store closing discount was going to be about 40 something so instead I ended up buying the same paddle at a place that rhymes with Rick's for $32 dollars. Big 5, make it make sense.

I always forget about this store when it comes to our sporting good needs, but I'm glad they are here because they've had everything we've needed. The employees are always ready to greet me every single time we've walked in. They ask us what we are browsing for and point us in the direction we need to go. We needed to buy cleats for my son who plays flag football. The employee helped us find his size and made sure it was the right fit. We also needed a mouth guard and he gave us his recommendation on what brand to get. They sell pretty much everything and anything pertaining to physical activity. We've browsed around the store and found a few unique things that you wouldn't be able to find at Walmart. If you sign up for their emails, they send coupons all the time. I'm for certain we will be here again once baseball season starts.
