Paintball Africa

Paintball Africa have a Paintball range within 20 minutes drive of Cape Town (roughly the same distance from the Northern Suburbs. They cater for groups of 14 including corporate functions, parties, bachelors, and team builders. A minimum of 14 people is required in order to make a booking.

R50 per person covers the equipment rental including:

• Tippmann Paintball Marker
• VForce Protective Face Mask
• 12oz CO2 Gas Cylinder

Paintballs cost R30 for 100 (30c every time you pull the trigger) and most players shoot around 300 – 400 paintballs (R90 to R120). You can also rent protective shirts for an additional fee.

Wednesday to Saturday groups of 14 players or more can make bookings. Otherwise every Sunday is a social Sunday where players turn up and join large games.

The markers (paintball guns) are semi-automatic they provide foamless, anti-fog masks which are hygienic – a must. The paintballs are non-toxic, non-caustic and biodegradable.

The facilities at the range include a braai and shaded recreation area where people are free to enjoy the area. Groups are encouraged to bring their own food and drinks (there is a very small shop there) although on arrangement the staff do organize catering or a spit braai.

There are toilets and secure parking facilities available. The actual playing areas are fairly large with a variety of different playing styles catered for.

• Wear old clothing as you will be running through the bush, diving on the ground and getting paintballed
• Do not wear sandals as they are unsuitable to the game
