running, jumping, crawling, etc. Eating right, brisk
walking, running and eliminating vices such as drinking,
smoking, and drugs should be attained to get into
shape.

information are always available for players who want
to play or master the game. More of the skills must
be learned during the actual playing of the game;
but tips and suggestions are important too.
- Visual practice. Assess the environment where the
game will be played. Paintball is a real world scenario
for the player. It may sound silly but try developing
your instincts in a supermarket. Visualize the routes
of escape, where the other shoppers are and what your
next step will be.
- Prepare all of the paint ball equipment and accessories
that are needed prior to the game. Pack the batteries,
towels, pads, etc. and save time looking for an item
once the game has started.

the paintball game. Look for comfortable camouflaged
items that are loose so that movements are easily
made. Do not wear clothes that make sounds when moving

it to get the feel of the field. By doing this a paint
ball player can visualize the field itself, especially
during daytime. Look for hiding places and the places
where you anticipate the opponents might go.

paint ball game. Know your role in the paintball game

Paint
ball Skills to Master and Win
Paintball has consistently prevailed a major unconventional
sport in the U.S. In fact, statistical reports say that
there are almost 12 million paint ball players worldwide
with 104 countries participating in various paintball
competitions. This shows that more and more people are
enticed to the play paint game.
However, it does not necessarily mean that the paint

Experts insist that playing paintball, just like the
other kinds of sport, needs some skills in order to
win the game. These skills are the primary tools that
every paintball player must try to learn. Once they
have mastered these skills, winning the game is relatively
simple.
Here is the list:
1. Basic stance - The problem with most players is
that they tend to face the bunker whenever they are
standing next to it. This is such a difficult stance
because it will give the player inadequate balance and
a time-consuming response. The best way is to stand
behind the bunker with the foot that is opposite with
the paintball marker or gun in lead. For instance, if
a player holds the marker with the right hand, the left
foot should be in lead.
2. Trick shot - It is important for every paintball
player to know the psychological aspect of the game.
This means that the player must know how to think and
act appropriately according to the possible actions
of the other players. Therefore, fire some “trick
shots” in an area where the other player is probably
hiding. It does not necessarily mean that firing too
many shots creates advantage. The object of this skill
is to create a ploy that will instigate the player to
respond in return if ever he is really in that area.
3. Run and Shoot and Run - Like any person in a battle,
it is best to master this type of skill in order to
achieve the best action and win. The problem with most
paint ball players is that they continue to hide thinking
that they can win because they remain invisible to their
opponents. The point is that a player can never win
if he does not try to eliminate his opponents. Mastering
this skill will definitely give every player an edge
over the others.
In every activity, there is an equal skill to master.
Mastery of these paint ball skills will ensure that
the player can win the game.
