Do you accept credit cards?

Yes. We accept all major credit cards as well as interac (Debit). We will also be accepting payments via the secure PayPal online service for pre-registrations.

Is rental equipment avaliable?

Yes. Tippman 98 markers will be avaliable for rent the day of the event. Please note that rentals are avaliable on a first come first serve basis, so it's a good idea to preregister and reserve if you need a rental. Rental markers and masks will be $10.00 and also includes unlimited air. Sorry but we will not be renting jackets the day of the big game. Tank rentals will not be avaliable to gun owners.

If I have trouble with my marker will help be avaliable?

Of course! We have a fully stocked proshop on site and we will have gun techs avaliable to assist players if needed.

I've never played in a big game, how does it work?

Unlike a normal paintball game which is played on a small field with a few dozen players, for a big game most of the property at Wasaga Paintball will be in play with the boundry tape between fields removed. The outside boundries for the big game will be clearly marked. When a player is eliminated they return to their entry point and wait for the next insertion window to open and rejoin the game. Generally you'll never have to wait more than a few minutes to get back into the action. Last year's big game had over 1,700 players in attendance.

There will be two armies at Black Reign. Each army will have a general who will give out commands to his troops. Along with flag stations scattered around the field that each team will be attempting to capture and hold there will be objectives throughout the day. Objectives will be given out by each army's commanding general and take a variety of forms. At the end of the day the points that each general has earned throughout the day will be added up and the teams will go into a final huge game to decide the winner.

Please see the Rules/Scenario page for more specific details on the game format and rules.

Will food/beverages be avaliable?


Yes. We have a snack bar that sells various snack foods and beverages as well as hamburgers and cheeseburgers. You can also bring your own lunch, however we do not have fridge facilities so you may want to pack anything perishable into a cooler.

Will there be door prizes?

Yes. Prizes will be handed out after the game and players who register before
July 31st have a chance to win an laptop and carrying bag.

What should I bring with me?

It's a good idea to bring appropriate clothing, good footwear, tight fiting gloves (such as gardening gloves), sunblock, and bug spray. If you're a gun owner a set of tools for your marker may come in handy.

What are the hours/Date for the event?

Aug 15th, 2009. The big game will go from 10am to 6pm. (Including the awards ceremony.) The park will be open the day/night before until 9pm for registration and arrivals. We will be open the morning of the event at 7:30am.

Where can I put my stuff while I play?

We have a large number of lockers avaliable for players to stash their gear on a first come first serve basis. Bring your own lock or borrow one from us for the day. ($5.00 deposit, refundable when the lock is returned.)

Are paint and smoke grenades allowed?

Paint grenades are welcome. It's best to make sure a referee is watching if you're planning on throwing a grenade as it's often hard for players to tell if they've been hit by a grenade.

Cool burning smoke grenades (Self contained, no external flame) are generally permitted at Wasaga Paintball, but it depends on the weather conditions at the field the day of the event. If it's too dry even cool burning grenades present a fire hazard. Please check with the game director the day of.
