Itching to be like those soldiers you see in war movies? Have a high tolerance for pain? Able to think fast while on your feet? If you have the above qualities, paintball is the sports for you!
Available at Turf City (Bukit Timah), Tactical Action Games (TAG) Paintball is the place where one can have a fun time shooting opponents with paintballs. Paintball was brought to Singapore since 1999 by TAG Paintball. The whole concept about paintball is to accomplish ‘missions’ while trying to take down as many opponents as possible by shooting them. Think "Counter-Strike"-like in real-life and you would get the idea.
You crouch behind a tin drum, waiting for your team-mate’s signal. Suddenly, ‘Ping!’ a paintball smashes into the tin drum you were hiding behind, sending splatters of paint pass your face. Next moment, you hear paintballs whizzing through the air. The fight is on!
The objective of the game is to shoot two targets in the opponents’ base camp, then capture your ammo box and bring it back to your own base camp without being shot. If you are shot, you will have to raise your gun above your head and run towards your halfway house, make a U-turn and continue playing. Being shot will also guarantee you a bruise (if the paintball hits a non-armored part of your body) and a blow to your ego.
But, do not fret! Paintball is not just about the bruising, as with every shot fired brings an adrenaline rush through your veins. The game is so exciting that everyone runs and jumps about constantly.
If you are a safety conscience person, do not worry as it is mandatory to wear specially designed helmets and chest protectors that will ensure that you go home in one piece.
