| Review: |
Prices are comparable to most indoor facilities. Gold membership seems to fit the bill for me and will pay for itself within 4 outtings during BYOP.
There are 2 fields: One scenario and One X-ball/Speedball. Essentially the difference between the 2 fields would be the graphics and style of the bunkers; they are all inflatable bunkers. Also, the scenario players shoot way less paint.
Surface: artificial turf with some padding
Lighting: adequate. Best to use a clear lense. Slightly tinted lense would work.
Field size (X-ball/Speedball): Rectangluar shaped. Will support up to 8 vs 8. I think any higher than that becomes more difficult, but is do - able.
Setup area: big and well lit with lots of tables. Unfortunately, when players drop paint and it breaks on the floor of the setup area, the floor gets really slippery. However, if you bring it to the attention of staff, they will quickly clean up without giving any attitude.
Staff: very helpful and friendly
Refs: they do their best and are respectful and deserve respect
Party rooms available with viewing windows towards the scenario field. Clean washrooms (well, at least the mens).
Players: are generally respectful of each other and show good sportsmanship.
For me, BYOP times would work out best. WHITE FILL ONLY. If you're going to buy paint elsewhere, make sure its WHITE FILL. The WDP Battleball they sold (instead of Stingers) were not very good; oversized (barrel breaks with a 0.691 barrel for me and in a 0.693 barrel for my buddy's Etek), and dimpled and didn't shoot straight (combine oversized and dimpling caused crazy curving paintballs). Would be to your advantage to buy their Marbalizers (for $15Cdn more per case).
Just to clarify my ratings. A "10" would be an air conditioned field similar to Cameron's Indoor but instead of splitting the field into 2 fields, one field would be created and much brighter lighting. Also, prices would remain the same. Financially, such a field wouldn't survive.
9/10 for this field (Highly Recommended)
I definitely will go again. Great place.| Last edited on Saturday, March 22nd, 2008 at 9:29 pm PST |

| Review: |
I've gone to the field twice and I've generally had a great impression of the field.
It has two fields, one xball, one recball.
My first indication was the prices are a wee bit expensive compared to the Outdoor area. Although, I was skeptical at first, I've found it really worth it. The services there are a pro-shop and the field staff help with anything else you need.
On that note, the staff is amazing. Always helpful, always courteous. Refs were really strict on safety and actually jumped in the way of a new player when he partially took his mask off and got shot a few times.
Facitilies is great, and if I remember correctly, heated as well.
Food was good, and pretty cheap.
Oh, as a side-note, the bunkers were not really anchored well. My friend took out a bunker by sliding into it.
I would give it a nine, but the prices really turn me off and keep me from playing there too often, and go to the Outdoor field much more. Thus that is a negative one to the review for my opinion.
8/10 (Highly recommended)| Last edited on Friday, April 18th, 2008 at 8:18 am PST |
