You would also need to be a registered business yourself, get council permission and fill out all of the insurance forms etc.
Honest opinion-do not do it as you are too young and have no experience.

We did it in Carlisle once. Set up a mini supair field on a basketball court with netting fixed around all of the sides.
Went well untill paintballs started going over the netting anyway since punters shoot up for some reason...
Then we turned it into a shooting range (boring but persuaded people to shoot forward) which was a bigger sucess but definately less fun.
To be honest village fairs are full of kids that are too young and old people, anyone inbetween will either not want to try it or will be drunk. Plus, people are too inexperienced to be that close to other people with markers.
It's a great idea and people do enjoy it but you couldn't do it yourself, there's a lot of effort into it and not that much benefit, if your local site yould do it it'd think that may be a better idea (when we did it we were techincally the 'local' site) and still things didn't go to plan.
I can't remember what happened with the insurance but as it was a site I assume we were covered by the site insurance? Or maybe day insurance.
Overview: Lots of effort, little rewards, and overall a crap boring day where I gave up and went to watch the world cup in the pub

He'd have more chance of staging a couple of mixed martial arts bouts in a fight cage ... as for the paintball?Try reballs and a snap cage
Nice idea - shame about the practicality
XMini: if you take a look at the p8ntballer.com window as you post, you might notice a small icon that has 'ABC' on it, this denotes a spelling check can be enabled.
Try it ... it makes a world of difference as to how people perceive both you and your posts mate.
having said that a snap box might work for the original idea.
has anyone else noticed that the army do this at larger public events?
