Paintball

Today, after school, I went to Paintball with some others. It was really fun, but a bit painful..

So right after school we met in front of school and we went with the van or car to the paintball field. It was near Hastings but a bit in the no-where.
We had to get into jumpsuits, which can get dirty and we all got masks. The most important rule is to not take of your helmets! Because the only thing which can acctually get hurt are the eyes, so that's the most important thing to respect.
So we were into two teams and everybody had a paintball gun which 50 ball munition. You were allowed to shot at somebody who was at least 2 rows of cannisters away from you, because otherwise it would hurt too much.. When you were shot you had to leave the field, with your hand in the air and run around the pole. When yoou didn't have any munition anymore you had to leave the field with your hand high in the air.

The first game consited to get a flag which was in the middle of the field and to get it to the concurrentside. Everytime you get shot you have to run around a pole at the end of your field. It was very funny and I was the last of my team that survived.. So I was on my own with the flag in my hand. I have been shot hardly on my head and neck.. So I had to run around the pole but then I had to leg the flag there, so I finally lost, but it was very fun! Sadly the shot in my head was really hard and it's still hurting a lot and swollen. But I hope it's going to be better soon.

Then we had a second game, were we started back to back with one of our rivals and then the owner of the paintball center shouted walk, so we could walk and hide behind one of the canisters. then the goal was simply to shoot somebody of the opposite team. Everytime you got shot, you had to go back one cannister. So the winning team pushed their rivals into their own end of the field. I was also very fun!

I got quite a lot of hard shots, around 5 in my head and neck, throat, then a few on the leg and one on the shoulder.. I got bruises, but I have to say it was worth it!
