I think fills to 4500psi are essential these days. And I would also add that multiple air stations are a must, not just two or three. I would also say the location of the air filling stations are also essential.

Location.... location.... location

I would also say that a frequent barrier for many paintball players is location, especially the younger generation. You know the cash rich kind with parents who love to please their children. If you can get a site with similar geographical location to a train station. I reckon you will get many more paintball players coming more often. Perhaps even during the week for some training. Something like the Esher Rugby event a few years back.
With the length of current games and the efficiency of most markers there is absolutely no requirement to run air @ 4500 psi nobody is on the field long enough to run out of air. The only advantage is possibly turnaround time in X-ball, but is you have a pit crew that should not be a problem either.

I've been thinking about this for awhile if i an a site the main things id have would be

  • Full sized fields
  • big staging ares not just 1 tent per team
  • 2 air stations (hoses) per tent
  • stands like at the MS
  • pro shop W/techs
  • Score board
  • Crane with coms
  • cctv on al corners of the field so tourneys can be filmed and also you can book a training and get a dvd of your training to reflect on.
  • Chill out zone with like sofas. TV PS3 etc
  • changing rooms with showers.
  • on site food.

Can I just add proper toilets are a big must!
Especially for the girlfriends that have to hover to be able to pee when all u smelly men clearly do a lot of spraying and praying in the porta loos at most sites.

Also somewhere to wash your hands is a good idea but baby wipes are so cheap if its a big issue for people just shove some baby wipes in your paintball bag and jobs a gooden :)

I'd personally like to see prober dead boxes! So when your shot you go to it not off the field. Just always thought thats what CPPS was missing. Also Maybe a Place to SIT! like a mini staging area or something.

Trophies are nice also :)
tournaments are very xball focused these days, which is good, but means dead boxes aint really needed for the majority of games played.

full sized fields and proper decent sized staging areas would be awsome, but a really nice surface would take it to the next level

Real toiletes instead of porta-loo's
Seats around the pit

P.A. system
CCTV on all pits
More food choice
Lounge sort of area
floor mats for when it rains and gets muddy so all the girls/un-manly type of people dont cry (My gf)
Score board (as posted below)
heaters for when its cold
