whats a good age

[elite204]

is 13 a good age to start playing paintball

[Lopez17]

It's just as good as any.

[gage713]

nope.....they should start as soon as they leave the hospital ;)

[nocpan]

i seen kids as young as 6 play the sport and get good at it, 13 is as good as any early enough to get pernamently interested and blow all allowance money of it and not drugs and alcochol...

[Skunk300]

LOL!! Yeah...isnt 13 the minimum age anyway? At most fields I think it is.

[Headhunter]

13 is a good age. And unless it has change due to insurance reasons, the min age in 10.

[GranDream]

Whenever the kid is mature enough to handle being shot at and shooting people with paintballs all day.

[edudcixlsyd]

10 is usually the minimum age that insurance will cover at most fields

[thekid]

Yeah I'm 13 and I play paintball with my friends, one of them is even 12.

[xIrish]

13's a great age to start playing. 10's the minimum.

[Intermision]

That's weird at my field it's 8 for the minimum.:eyes:

[Sam56]

13's a good age, I'm 13 right now, but I started playing when I was 5.

It's always funny to see everyone think I'm a noob because of my age, then they get bonus balled on their way to the deadbox..:dodgy:

yeah i started when i was 11 but didnt really get into it like i am now until i was about 13.

[Intermision]

I played a little when I was 14, but then I just started playing again when I was 18.

[Mentalmonkey10]

13 is a good age. My friend started on his 13th B-day (too cheap to get a marker with his own money) and I started when I was about 12.

[noobert]

I started when i was 10 with my bro being 12. We played a lot of outlaw ball since we only ran off of allowance. But now that i have a job, and can afford to pay for 60-100 dollars of paint a week, plus save up for a new gun, and money for my girlfriend and xbox I'm getting a lot more into speedball and tournaments. Just make sure that you have a steady amount of currency. And just be sure that you can handle situations. I've seen kids even around my age FLIP out cause they got shot. Not the pain, just there hot heads, and that ruins the mood. So if you can't control yourself by 13, wait a few more years so people don't hate you. Have a bit or maturity, keep your cool, and play paintball. 13 is a good age though, most kids i knew that play were getting interested around that tiem, i was just a bit earlier

[Intermision]

I'm not saying that kids younger than 13 can't play, but most kids that i've seen that are younger don't know how to play properly. They like to talk out of there butt about things they don't know about.

Sounds like you should stop playing for a few years until you understand something called GOOD SPORTMANSHIP.

[drtalent]

I started when I was 13

Bonus balling is giving love to the needy. :tup:

[IWishIHadMore$]

I got my R6 two Christmas's ago, that was the day that I was born.

[I LUV PB]

i started at 11, lol

[mgitlin]

I didn't start until I was 14, but we have kids out here that play sometimes at 9-10 (accompanied by their parents). As long as they're willing to get hit, display responsibility (mask, safety, etc.), they are allowed to play with their parents out.

[cww516]

i got in to it in the summer before my freshman year, because that's how long it took me to convince the 'rents to let me play.

[edudcixlsyd]

to sum it up....YES!

[VBaller06]

Any Age Is A Good Age To Start Playing Paintball!!!!!!!

[inuyasharox4776]

i stared playing at about 11 i think. But for the past year or so (im 14) ive been getting a lot more serious (upgrading to big boy guns, cleaning out my guns, repairing my stuff, playing more often, etc)

[Robomonkey]

I started when I was 11. Didn't hurt much back then, and really doesn't now.
