Del Hobbies Paintball is the best field I have been to in my two years of paintball experiance. It is truly an excellent place to speedball for any players.
Fields: 3 Spu'Air fields, fully functional and of decent size. This included 2 fields reserved specifically for rec ballers, both good for around 10 players per side, and one 7v7 or 10v10 speedball field reserved especially for team practices. All the fields were in good shape and fun to play on. The two rec ball fields had chrono ranges set up right in front of them, which was convienient.
Staff: Though they seemed a bit short staffed on their rec ball fields, the refs that were present were attentive and did their job well, though they seemed a bit hesitant to jump into the action and pull people out. The refs staffing the team practice fields were VERY good, VERY attentive, and even through my team and myself some pointers on where we could improve and what we were doing well. The store staff (and I believe the owner of the field) was great, giving my friends and me discounts all over the place. My friend bought some pants, totallying $71.04, when he came up short, he sold them for $70.00 and even gave us $3 for the toll on the drive home. Very friendly service.
Prices: Prices were great. $20 a player for all day air and entry, $15 if you bought their paint (though you could bring your own.) Paint prices were $41 per box, Diablo Heat which is the cheapest of any field I have attended.
Competition: For those teams looking for a place to practice, this field had the full spectrum of competitors. From amateur teams such as my own and ECX kidz, to much bigger powerhouses like Redz Factory and Brimstone Smoke. If you want to play some serious speedball, play here.
My Rating: I give this field a 10/10 for excellent service, excellent fields, and a place that caters to both rec ballers and team players on a pretty even spectrum. Apparently, they even have 3 more fields on the way, which will make it even bigger, and hopefully better. This field has become my number one favortie, surpassing ECX, I will definately be comming back.
