The fundamental concepts associated with paintball are rather uncomplicated, as participants of opposing teams aim to remove other players by using an assortment of paintball equipment to "mark" those they are playing against in order to send them out of the game.

The rules and regulations of paintball are different depending on where and who you play against, but the basic notion of sending an opponent out of the game is pretty routine.

Sometimes, players have the goals of "capturing" the flag of another team (or several different teams) or aim to eliminate all of the members of another team. These are seen as some of the many different ways the paintball game is played.

Paintball games are more enjoyable when varying levels of paintball equipment come into play. This also helps keep the highest level of safety during game play.

On June 27, 1981, the first ever paintball game took place with 12 players. Two participants who have been known as playing an instrumental role in what the game is today were involved.

In 1976, Hayes Noel and Bob Gurnsey, intently listened to a story told by a friend who visited Africa and hunted buffaloes. They became inspired and dreamed of a game that actually used some of the same concepts that would produce a similar energy rush.

At the time, there was no standard in paintball equipment, as players simply relied on the Nelspot 007 agricultural gun, which was a product of the Nelson Paint Company that dated back to the 1950s. These products could mark trees from a distance and were quite helpful to forestry personnel. To mark cows, cattle owners also used this type of paintball equipment.

Currently, a range of paintball equipment hailing from a variety of paintball equipment manufacturers are easily located in specialized shops, as well as outdoor-related stores.

Fundamentally significant to the game of paintball, the solution to accessories and items in order for paintball to become a sport is centered on paintball equipment.

In relation to all other sporting options, decent paintball equipment doesn’t always equate into victorious paintball players. However, poor paintball equipment can most certainly influence a negative outcome pertaining to the game.

At the very least, the most simple of paintball equipment involves paintball makers (that contain a reasonable amount of decent propellant to fire paintball markers), and shielding head gear (like masks that protect the face and eyes of a participant).

For the more intense paintball player, there is paintball equipment that offers extra protection, such as elbow pads, knee pads, outdoor packs (that hold paintball markers), gloves, throat protectors, chest protectors, as well as a cleaning swab or squeegee that cleans out paintball gun barrels – all of which are sometimes very much needed.

There is a high demand for equipment when one wishes to play paintball, as there is a large amount of paintball equipment that offers great solutions. Therefore, what is taking you so long? Collect all the necessary paintball gear you require and have a good time.

Rainy day games are more difficult because of the mud. Slipping, sliding, and difficulty stopping when you run all need to be compensated for. Simple moves, such as crouching, are made difficult. The challenge that rain brings to the game makes playing in the rain a perfect way to test your skills.

Some guidelines to follow for those of you who want to play paintball in the rain include:

Wearing rain gear is smart. Put on a raincoat or slicker before you go to the paintball field. If you don't own waterproof clothing you can use trash bags over your clothes, cut out arm holes and a hole for your head and you can slip the bag on like a t-shirt. Shivering can affect your accuracy as well as restrict movement, not to mention how uncomfortable getting soaked can be.

A waterproof hat or other head covering can be helpful as well. You need to keep from having your goggles fogged up and avoid rain running down your face and breaking your concentration.

Paper towels are your friend. Bring them along to assist you with foggy goggles. Pay attention to game play and keep safety in mind when you wipe off your goggles, so this in a crouching position facing away from the action to protect your face.

You don't want wet feet, wearing boots can assist with this. Cleats can help with this as well as assist with traction. Your hands can get very cold in the rain, wearing gloves will protect them from the rain.

Keep your gear as dry as possible. Bring along a plastic bag for your paintballs. Extra plastic bags can work to cover your gear as well as covering yourself when needed. You can waterproof your weapon by covering it with plastic secured with rubber bands.

Shooting in the rain is not the same as shooting on a dry day. You may want to use a non-ported barrel to keep the rain out if you have one to keep from having your shots twist.

Paintball can be played in many different ways in all sorts of weather conditions. Use your imagination and keep safety in mind while having fun.
