You are so kind and no I've not played myself it's my son that plays and I don't think he would take kindly to his mum playing it with him I don't know if I would dare he has come home with bruises all over from it ha. Do you think I should give it a try if I dare that is
Go for it - however you'll have to decide for yourself if your realy up for it
For your son it could go either way:
embarrassment (but that's a parents job)
Coolest mother in town - and he has a willing playing partner ready to travel
Try paintball and you get the experience and find out what he gets from it, you may find yourself a regular or you find it's not for you
You wont be the first female paintballer
I blackmailed a friend into finally trying paintball with her son at a site open day (.50 calibre junior play)
I knew it wouldn't be for her, but she can now say she tried
It's not compulsory to get covered in bruises:
Don't be the person who runs straight at everyone
Wear loose fitting clothing to reduce impact
Ask the site about padded body armour if your concerned
If you are scared and hide at the back it will hurt
If you get the adrenaline going and get involved, it will still hurt! But you realise its not much pain and it's only the impact that hurts, and it goes away
