I have just been to delta force for my first go at paintballing. Loved it. it was amazing. But the problem was do to pricing, location and booking it would be more of a place were I would go for a competition match, not to train. So could anyone tell me about any clubs (paintballing clubs, obviously) that follow these guidelines

-in the east Midlands, UK. The closer to Leicester the better

-come and play every week to play and train

-provides everything until I get enough money to get my own stuff

-£10 or less per session (better if that includes 100 paintballs)

-obviously, an actual club so if you get good enough they try to get you into a team where you eventually play pro matches.

If it goes a little bit off any of them rules, its fine.

thanks for all the support guys and girls

thanks again

While you may find cheaper, commercial fields in my area run between $80-100+ (50-62GBP) per day of play for rental players.

 

I hate to discourage new players, but it sounds like you have some unrealistic expectations as to costs of paintball. It is not a cheap hobby. Not even close. Once you have your own equipment, you may be able to play "outlaw" or "renegade" games on private fields for less, but you would still be hard pressed to play for that cheap. Paint is not cheap, it typically runs $30+ for decent grade paint, and you still have to get your air/co2 tanks filled every time you play. 

 

 

I wouldn't necessarily encourage 14 year olds  with little to no experience to go out into the woods by themselves and play paintball in an empty lot. I defintiely wouldn't encourage them to do it in his next door neighbors abandoned house. Unless you have proper supervision and saftey equipment, I would discourage this, and stick to commercial fields until you have the proper equipment and knowledge.

Good luck.

Have a good look at these forums, I'm not too sharp on the English scene anymore but these are where anyone with any info for you will be. There are games called Walkons where a site owner (almost definitely smaller sites than delta farce) will open the site to players with their own gear. Prices are round about 25 notes for the day if you bring all your own stuff. A box of paint is usually chucked in for about £40. Although I can't promise that.

 

Rental gear can be supplied however expect to play full punter price if you need it. The links I gave you will offer better info for your area but I know for a fact there will be sites providing walk-ons nearby.
