Speedball VS Woodsball

[Motifier]

I've heard a lot about speedball and woodsball, but I was wondering if someone would be able to give me a clear explanation of what they are and how they're played.

Thanks guys.

A rough definition is woodsball = in the woods, and speedball = competitive style in a small area, probably with inflatable barricades

Typically woodsball will bring to the mind 'recreational' paintball.
If you mention scenario people may assume its in the woods

Speedball will often give a perception of tournament style paintball in a smaller area, with inflatable barricades, and in a tournament format
However most woodsball sites will have a speedball field, even if it is just wooden barricades.

Speedball was born out of woodsball

Scenario is paintball with a theme (it's scenario storyline)
It could be in the woods - or in a unique location
