Situated just off the A180, in a fantastic woodland setting, the Paintball site is ideally located for players travelling from Scunthorpe, Hull or Grimsby. Paintball is the perfect activity for all events, and our marshals are fully trained to tailor your session to you. Whether you are planning a birthday party of a Stag / Hen do, or just fancy coming with a few friends or work colleagues, we can make sure you have a day to remember.

There is over 100 different types of paintball games out there, and the game zones at Paintball Scunthorpe have been designed to provide you with a superb setting to get immersed in the experience. Use the man-made and natural barricades to your advantage and sneak up on the enemy team. Each player goes through a full safety briefing and short training session at the start of the day, so if you are a newcomer, by the end of this, you will know how everything works. And if you do encounter any issues, the marshals are on hand at all times to help out.

Check availability today, to ensure we have spaces for your session, and if you have any questions, please give us a call.
