Paintball
The history of paintball begins in the early 1970s, when it was used as a tool for marking trees and livesstock. In 1980 twelve friends played the first recreational paintball game.
Paintball combines the game of capture the flag with chess, mix in hide "n" seek and add a large dose of adrenaline. As few as two or as many as eighty can play.
The basic game has two teams, each with its own flag station and matching color armbands. Each team starts at its own flag station. A starting signal is given and each team tries to reach the other team´s station, grab the flag and race back to its station. When a player gets tagged-hit by a paintball he/she is out of the game. If a player is carrying a flag when tagged, he/she must drop the flag at that spot, then leave the game.
The basic equipment you need for play is: paintball safety goggles and face mask, proper clothing and extra paint tubes with paintballs.
Today, commercial paintball fields are anywhere, but there are still a large number of people that prefer playing paintball out in the woods. The first professional tournament was held in 1983.
