Well first off the safety was ok but newbs kept on lifting up there goggles but hey there new so they dont know.When I reff there i pretty much tell them to keep there mask down,you know normal stuff they should know about.They have 2 fields that they have up(One hyperball and One angel field).They also have grass to play on too.As for hours 10am to 4pm on Saturday and 11am to 4pm.Prices are ok but paint is $40 and it could be cheaper but everything else is ok. They dont really tell people there rules they just have a sign.There services are the best if you have an ion,tippman,angel,bob long,shockers or etek ego(ill help you with that just ask for slothy =D ).There staff and reffs are ok if you neen help with your gun or just have a question.Lastly they dont have food but they are near bk and the schnitzel.
i give this field a
7/10 |

I should first start by saying this is a good field. The location, prices, and fields are all great, but there are some things that hold it back. The refs, the language and the game set up stop this field from being one of the best fields i have ever played at.
First flaw: The Refs
There are a ton of kids running around in Enemy Paintball t-shirts, but not many are designated refs. And the ones who do ref, are at the tender age of about 12. There is only about 1 ref per game, and sometimes none at all. I have sit a game to call one, just so 2 teams could play! If Enemy hires dedicated staff, and assigns them to a station, with shifts, things would go so much smoother.
Second flaw: The Games
Aside from the poor reffing, getting games together is an absolute pain. Unless you come with a team, or 4 or 5 people, you are stuck watching the games instead of participating in them. They constantly have teams scrimmaging on their field, which can be really alienating for new players. More than once, i have paid my $25 for admission and got in maybe 2 or 3 games for the day. It's rediculous. Its makes it hard for the newer players who have no team to play feel welcome. If Enemy offered a begginer, or intermediate session, they would attract and keep many more paintball players.
Third Flaw: The Language
The last problem I had was the Language used here. Its a mix of the music they play, and the mouths of various refs. I volunteer as a Youh Leader for junior high kids at a church in stockton, and while i like much of the music played at the field, I don't think it is appropriate to play when kids 13 and younger are present. I have one kid in my group who is sponsored by Enemy Paintball and plays on their Young Gunz team, And on Enemy's Myspace site, they endorse smoking and drinking. Now normally this wouldn't bother me, but when you have youth's looking at that, it sets a bad example.
In Conclusion this is a good field, but its flaws keep it from being great. The guys Nate and Derron and everyone there are awesome guys. Which is why i hope they read this, and take some of it into consideration to make Enemy Territorry the best paintball field in Nor Cal.! |

The field has nice grass and the bunkers are in good shape. The layout of the field is nice it's Xball and NPPL. But refs are a joke they have about 10000 refs but only have one on the field. they don't even know how to start a game. Evey time you make good move or a slide you can here the refs talking about how bad that move was. They need to shut the @#$! and ref. The field is a 10 but the refs are a -1 fire all the refs! |

This is by far the best paintball field I've ever seen. It has nice grass, is in the city next to alot of gas stations & restaurants, has food catered, has WiFi internet access and music! Currently is $20 for entrance and $5 for all day air. You can bring your own paint if you're using your own equipment, otherwise rentals have to use their paint. They have night play on Friday and Saturdays. This field was somebody's vision come true. There are three speedball fields as of this post and each game has 3 - 4 referees.
I don't even know the people at Enemy paintball, so this is a legit non-biased review. The place is the shizznits!!
Here are some pictures and information I found on the internet: http://www.bradjphoto.com/enemy.htm (Even the pictures don't do the field justice)

I talked to the guys over at the shop and they said it'll be 3 unknown size yet airball fields only so sorry rec players ur SOL but anybody thats into speedball here you go around stockton aglt and lodi area!!
i'll get more details when its up and running!!
but for right now i'll give it high marks caust it's close to my house and love speedball!!!!
UPDATE!!!!-------I went there the first day it opened!!
just got to tell you that you got to be there to see how SICK this field is!!!!
it's all grass 3 fields and one of the set up like the BOSTON NPPL tourney
cheap prices but paint price is decent could be better but no complaints cause its better if you bring your own!!
but yeah on the weekend of august 5th XSV and Bob Longs crew will be there to scrimmage so thats something to go to the field for and check it out!!
they have benches and shade depending on the time but an excellent overall field!!
