Questions for First-Time Players

I’ve never played before. Is this a good place to start?
Yes. Many of our groups are first-time players. Because games are private and paced to your group, beginners are never rushed or overwhelmed by experienced players.

Will I be playing against experienced or aggressive players?
No. You will only play with the people in your group. We never mix groups.

Does paintball hurt?
Paintball does sting, but we control engagement distances and game styles. For younger players or those worried about pain, Splatterball or Laser Tag are excellent low-impact options.

Will someone explain how everything works?
Yes. Every group receives a full safety briefing and equipment orientation before play begins. Rules are explained clearly, and questions are encouraged.

How does Xtreme Paintball and Laser Tag compare to other fields in Arkansas?

Independent review sites that evaluate multiple paintball fields across Arkansas have ranked Xtreme Paintball & Laser Tag at the top based on player experience, field quality, safety, and value. While some parks focus on total acreage or walk-on volume, our focus on private play, thoughtful field design, and supervision consistently stands out to both players and reviewers. 

Is a bigger paintball field or more acreage always better?

Not necessarily. While large parks may advertise more total acreage or a higher number of fields, that space is often divided among multiple groups playing at the same time. This can mean shared areas, mixed groups, and less control over the pace and style of play.

At Xtreme Paintball & Laser Tag, every session is private and reservation-only. Your group has exclusive use of the field during your time slot. That allows games to be paced properly, rules to be enforced consistently, and scenarios to be tailored to your group’s age, experience, and comfort level.

Our 2-acre Woods Field is one of the largest single continuous woodsball fields in Arkansas. It was designed for real movement, flanking, and strategy—not broken into smaller sections or shared with other groups. Our themed fields are built with intentional sightlines, cover placement, and flow, so how players move and interact is just as important as the size of the space.

Bigger does not always mean better. Thoughtful design, private play, and active supervision are what create a safer, more enjoyable, and more memorable paintball experience—especially for schools, churches, families, and first-time players.

Why doesn’t Xtreme focus on having the most acreage or the most fields?

Larger acreage doesn’t automatically create better gameplay or better group experiences. Xtreme Paintball & Laser Tag focuses on field design, flow, and exclusive access so groups can play uninterrupted games that emphasize teamwork, communication, and strategy. This approach is especially effective for churches, schools, and team-building events where quality of interaction matters more than raw size.

Is paintball safe for kids?
Safety is our top priority. Games are supervised, rules are enforced, and play is adjusted based on age and experience. We do not allow reckless or unsafe behavior.

Yes. All required safety equipment is provided. We also offer free gloves to any player who wants them.

Can parents watch?
Absolutely. Parents are welcome to observe and ask questions at any time.

Questions for Churches & Youth Groups

Do you welcome church and youth groups?
Yes. Churches and youth groups are a large part of our business. Our private-only model creates a respectful, controlled environment that church leaders appreciate.

Is the language and behavior appropriate for youth groups?
Yes. Because we do not host tournaments or walk-on play, we avoid the language and behavior often associated with competitive public fields.

Can games be adapted for different age groups?
Yes. Games are customized for your group’s age, maturity, and experience level.

Do you offer group discounts or special considerations for churches?
Please contact us directly to discuss group needs. We are happy to work with churches whenever possible.

Yes. We regularly host school groups, teams, and organizations.

Yes. All players must have a signed waiver. Waivers can be completed ahead of time or at the field.

Is this suitable for team-building?
Absolutely. Paintball, Splatterball, and Laser Tag are excellent for communication, teamwork, and leadership development.

Questions for Experienced Players

Do you host tournaments?
No. We do not host tournaments. Our focus is on private groups, safety, and a family-friendly environment.

Can experienced players still have competitive games?
Yes. We can run structured, competitive games within your private group while maintaining safety standards.

What is the rate of fire or equipment policy?
We enforce fair play rules to keep games safe and enjoyable for everyone. Excessively aggressive play is not allowed.

Weather & Scheduling

What happens if the weather is bad?
Safety always comes first. If weather conditions are unsafe or too cold, we will work with you to reschedule.

Is there a temperature cutoff for play?
Yes. Extremely cold conditions can affect safety, equipment performance, and player comfort. We evaluate weather on a case-by-case basis.

How far in advance should we book?
We recommend booking as early as possible to secure your preferred date and time. While spring and fall fill fastest, we host private events throughout the week, including weekdays for schools, churches, and organizations. Planning ahead allows us to prepare the field, staff, and games specifically for your group.

We operate every event by The Golden Rule, treating every guest the way we would want our own family treated. That commitment is rooted in my faith in Jesus Christ and guides how games are run, how safety is enforced, and how every group is respected.

“And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.”
