100% safety record

At Delta Force Frontier safety is our paramount concern, with every necessary measure taken to ensure the personal safety of all participants.

Statistics show that paintball is in fact an extremely safe sport, for example you are 19 times more likely to be injured playing football or rugby. Nevertheless, as with any vigorous outdoor sport, there exists the potential for injury.

The primary potential danger in the sport of paintball is from the impact of a paintball with an unprotected eye. Paintballs travel very quickly and have the potential to cause serious injuries, such as blindness. However, in twenty years of operation Delta Force Frontier has never had a player sustain any serious eye injuries and we don't plan to either.

In order to protect you from the remote possibility of sustaining such an injury, Delta Force Frontier has taken the following precautions:

  • Invested in the latest full head goggle protection system - incorporating BS compliant lens technology (as well as ear, temple and crown of head protection).
  • Instituted a policy of manually checking every player's goggles prior to the start of every game (to ensure the goggles are appropriately fitted and secured).
  • Fully enclosed our basecamps (safe zones) with high mesh safety netting.
  • Prohibited any paintball gun from entering the basecamps (safe zones).
  • Prohibited the removal of goggles in the game zones.
  • Invested in the training of marshalling personnel to ensure that they strictly enforce the 'goggles-on' rule at all times.
  • Standardised pre-game safety presentation so that it is delivered over a public address system according to a pre-recorded, Health & Safety approved formula. This ensures that no detail is ever overlooked.
  • Instituted a 'pre-player arrival goggle integrity check' - under which all goggles are individually inspected by trained staff prior to issue at the beginning of every day. Written records are kept and returned to HQ. Any goggles not up to our high standards are rejected and returned to HQ for decommissioning.
  • At Delta Force Frontier 'head-shots' do not count (this is to discourage players from shooting at one another's heads).
  • If any player lifts or removes their goggles outside of the basecamp (safe zone) they will be immediately excluded from the game and not permitted to return that day. Many of our competitors merely impose 'penalty points' for goggle-lifting - we believe this sends out the wrong message - your eyesight is more important than that. We will not accept any short cuts or compromises when it comes to your safety.

All of our practices are the subject of in-depth health and safety risk assessments. These are constantly updated, upgraded and improved. Copies of these risk assessments are available on request.

All Delta Force Frontier managers, assistant mangers and senior marshals hold current first aid qualifications and many other senior staff have an ex-services background and hold similar qualifications. Environmental health officers have in the past asked if they may use Delta Force Frontier's health and safety policies and practices as the model against which to judge other paintball centres in their jurisdictions.

We follow government guidelines in relation to the health and safety of all staff and visitors, are fully covered by Full Public Liability Insurance and are 5-Star accredited members of the European Paintball Association (EUPBA). This means we enforce the strictest safety standards to make your day out with us run smoothly and safely as possible.

You are in safe hands with Delta Force Frontier.
