Mud, shouted commands and canvas rustling: by the time you step through the gate the field has already become a short, sharp world of its own. Teams fan out across bunkers and broken hedgerows while a referee’s whistle threads the air; the terrain alternates between close-quarters wooden forts and wider woodland lanes that invite sprinting flanks and careful cover work.

Conservation

Dress for mud and paint
Wear old long sleeves and durable trainers—you’ll be crawling and the coveralls help but paint can get on clothing.

Intense short games dehydrate quickly; most sites have refill points or a café on site.
Protect exposed skin
Use a buff or neck gaiter and long socks to reduce bruising and sunburn.
Arrive early to test-fire
Give yourself time for the armoury drill and sighting shots so you’re confident when the first game starts.
Long-sleeve base layer
Reduces paint contact and abrasion during slides and crawls.
Sturdy trainers or trail shoes
Provide traction on wet grass and firm footing during quick movements.
