Midway has turned it to the worst field i have ever been to after the new owner took over. Sorry to all the people who love it so much but i thoght people should know befor they waste there money. The fields that were once great now have huge pot holes brush every ware and looks bad. The airball corce look ok but the workers need to fill up all the bunkers and tie them to the ground better. I slid in to one and it roled away.The refs dont do alot anymore if you call for a paint check they just stand there. |

Safety - Very enforced, good job Midway. Banned a kid from playing there because he didn't follow much of the rules
Fields - Excellent fields, set up very nicely. Got something for each kind of baller.
H.O.P - Very good hours. 9am-4pm
Prices - Fantastic Prices. $25 for self equipped, Fullday,All air
Rules - Excellent rules. Perfect for the tourney baller, perfect for the beginner, very balanced.
Services - EXCELLENT SERVICE! My PM6 was leaking and the owner took some time out of his day and fixed it.
Proshop - Uh no proshop, I would've bought from them too.
Staff - Excellent staff.. Very friendly. Hot girl too
Refs - Very good refs. Did a paintcheck everytime I called one.
Players - Mainly tourney ballers, but there were some beginners, along with a dad when I was there.
Facilities - Ok I guess, 1 porta-potty
Food - Great food. One guy takes a bunch of orders, leaves, goes to a bunch of Fast food places, comes back, everyone pays him, everyones happy. |

| Review: |
Really like the course. Im not a fan of hyperball, but it was a lot of fun. My gun was screwy and the girl looked at it for like 10 seconds and told me that my firing pin was upside down. Everything is really cheap.
I have only noticed the mud once, and it made it more fun.
My only complaint was that i jumped over a hay bale and i got kicked out of the game. oops!
other than that its awesome. very well kept porta-potties, i must say |

it is so easy to get this field. If you are coming from the vallejo direction, all you have to do is get on I-505 and then about a few miles down, exit off of Midway Road and then make a right on that road and itwill be at the left hand side. You could seethis place when you exit the freeway. |

The safety at this place is really great. There are two refs, one name Mouse and I forgot the other ones name. They are great with everything. They call you out when you get shot and does not feel it. They pay really close attention to make sure that everyone is safe. Atone paint, I was standing on the side because I was shot and the action came towrads me, one of the refs kind of nudged me to the side because he didn't want me to get hurt. He apologized for it but the apology was not needed because he was just doing his job.
The field is good. We were only allowed to play on one of the fields because the other two needed maintenance.
The hours of operation was great. It's not too early and it last until 4pm. Opens at 9am.
The prices are kind of pricey I would say. Girls play for free. Rentals aren't that geat. The paintball prices are ridiculous. A box of 2000 is $60. As for the CO2, you pay as you go. They make most of their money from the CO2.
The rules were told to us but some were not. for example, about the splaters, hit and bounce were not told.
The service was great. You have to bring your own food or go to a nearby resturant.

| Review: |
My kids and myself got there early Sunday morning, nobody but the staff....They were all cool...we got setup and still nobody..... the ref (Chris)did I mention They were all cool...let us play few games before everyone else showed....how often do you get a chance to shoot your own kids...after bout 4 or 5 games other people showed...rest of the day was pretty much the same.....FUN AS HELLLLLL...I've played at other fields and never played as many games as we did that day...I think we played somewhere around 16 gamesand they were still going when we left.....I still cant say this enough.... the staff was hella cool..
They've got 3 fields airball, hyperball and western,the way it looks they had more but it really doesnt matter...
things to bring: water, something to eat(its out in the middle of nowhere) and if its sunny some shade. |

| Review: |
Staff- 10/10 The friendliest staff ever!
Fields- ??? (read review)
Prices- 9/10 (they have the best prices on some of the best paint around!!!)
Facilities- Ummm... not many, so maybe a 7/10? I think I saw a porta-potty, benches.... and that was about it :)
Refs- 10/10
Hours- Normal, what can I say? Regular 9-4 field
Location- 10/10. Easy to find... I got lost, but thats 'cause I was reversed in my directions XD
This is was only my second time of really playing paintball with my own gear. The staff here is awesome! They really help out new players! It was a little slow since I went on a friday night and that was the last night game of the year, and the chief ref was giving me pointers on the field and showing me useful techniques. My gun's dwell was all crapped up and one of the gun techs fixed it for me in like a minute for free. They fill the air for you, but don't rip you off. They give you a full fill. It was night when I went, so there was only one airball field up and the rest were closed, but thats what I went there for (this is why I can't accurately review the fields).
Without a doubt I will be returning here for many trips to come, even though its about 1-1:30 hours from my house :)
***Edited after playing there again***
Alright, went there again and I was just as happy (if not more) than the first! I got to play the hyperball field (AWESOME) and the west field (AWESOME too!). The weather was pretty bad, so the parking lot was REALLY muddy, but the fields were fine. All three of the fields I've been able to play on would get a 10/10 rating from me!

Awsome. My first time there, and they were very helpful. I am new to paintball and found the staff to be very helpful. My Rodeo broke down and the tech helped me out and found out what was wrong with it for free and even loaned me a rental. Had a great time plaing there my favorite must have been the hyperball. Only three places were open western, speedball, and hyperball.
Overall awsome field. |

Well this is one of my favorite places in my area. Nothing special. Refs are very cool and help alot,air tech knows wat he is doin,Fields are well kept somewhat(bunkers can sometimes need more air and need a cleaning).Really my only complaint is the fields turf. I dont like gravel like turf with some straw laid down.Other than that i give this field a 8/10
P.S.~~Prices are way better than jungle and u can bring our own paint. |
