At On Point Paintball, we are committed to providing a world-class experience for players of all ages within the local New Zealand safety regulations.

Minimum Age Requirements:

Miniball	Ages 7–9
Standard Paintball	Ages 10+

Miniball (Ages 7–9):
Specifically tailored for our youngest recruits, Miniball uses lightweight, spring-loaded markers with lower impact, ensuring your child plays with their peers in a highly controlled and safe setting.

Standard Paintball (Ages 10+):
Once players reach the age of 10, they can step up to our standard 0.50 calibre semi-automatic paintball markers for the full “young gun” experience.

Pro-Tip: To ensure your group meets the requirements or to check the latest availability for your specific age bracket, give us a buzz on 0800 667 118.

Yes! We recommend booking for your minimum confirmed players as early as possible. Our centre is among the most popular in the country, and session spots fill up quickly—especially on weekends.

• Secure Your Date: Booking for your core group now ensures you don’t miss out on your desired date and session time. It’s better to lock in a slot for 10 “young guns” now than to wait for 20 and find the day is fully booked.
• Add Players Later: You are welcome to add more players to your booking up until a few days before your event. Simply call our coordination team to check equipment availability, and we will do our best to accommodate the extra recruits.
• Stress-Free Planning: Don’t let a few “maybe” responses hold up the entire group. Locking in the confirmed players officially starts the countdown to game day and often encourages the rest of the squad to commit!

Pro-Tip: Demand for our world-class game zones is high. We suggest booking for your “definites” today, then sending a “final call” to the rest of your group once the date is secured. You can manage any additions with a quick call to 0800 667 118.

Yes. Every player must complete an online registration form before they are authorised to participate at the centre.

• Under 16s: For players under 16 years of age, the online registration form must be completed by a parent or guardian.
• Efficiency: Filling out the online registration prior to attending means no printing or chasing up documents, resulting in less time spent checking in on game day. Once each player or parent has successfully registered, we will automatically receive the details.
• Bonus Info Pack: Upon successfully completing registration, each player or parent will receive a confirmation email along with an info pack, ensuring they are well-versed in the plan for the day.
• Group Coordination: We recommend sending the registration link to your entire group alongside your invitations to ensure a fast, seamless check-in.
• Accessing the Link: Please request your unique group link from your event coordinator when finalising your booking by calling 0800 667 118.
• Connectivity & Delays: Completing forms in advance is essential. The centre is located in an area where mobile signal and internet connectivity can be unreliable. Waiting until you arrive will significantly delay your check-in and reduce your time on the field.

To avoid disappointment, we recommend booking at least two weeks in advance. All dates are subject to availability and operate on a first-come, first-served basis.

• High Demand: Our centre experiences high demand, particularly on weekends. Your preferred date may not always be available if left to the last minute.
• Alternative Solutions: If your first choice is fully booked, our event consultants will proactively provide a list of alternative dates to accommodate your group.
• Securing Your Spot: Please note that your booking is only officially secured once your payment has been processed and player numbers are confirmed.
• Minimum Notice: Early booking also ensures we have sufficient professional marshalling staff rostered to provide your group with a world-class experience.

Pro-Tip: Looking for a last-minute mission? Give our team a call on 0800 667 118. We occasionally have late cancellations or newly opened sessions that may allow us to fit your group in at short notice!
