Summer paintball can be a blast — literally and figuratively — but the warm weather changes the game a bit.
Here’s what to expect and how to make the most of it:
Why Summer is Great for Paintballing Cannock
Longer daylight hours – more time to play and fit in extra game modes.
Dryer terrain – less mud means faster movement (and cleaner clothes).
Better visibility – no fogged masks from cold air, though sweat can still be an issue.
More themed events – many venues run summer tournaments, scenario days, or BBQ socials.
Tips for Playing in the Heat
1. Hydration is your best friend – drink water before and between games; dehydration hits faster when running around in the sun.
2. Choose breathable layers – long sleeves are still useful for protection, but go for lightweight, moisture-wicking fabrics.
3. Mask care – bring a microfiber cloth; sweat can fog lenses faster in summer.
4. Sun protection– sunscreen on exposed skin (like necks and wrists) is a must.
5. Light-coloured clothing under your gear** – helps reflect heat rather than trap it.
6. Cool-down breaks – take shade between matches; most good venues have covered rest areas.
7. Ammo awareness – paintballs can get soft in high heat, so store them in shade or a cool bag when not in us
Fun Summer Game Modes
Capture the Flag with water balloons** – venues sometimes mix in water-based props for heat relief.

Zombie or Scenario Weekends** – summer often brings themed events with props and storylines.
