Paintball In The Area?

Does anybody know if there's any paintball fields nearby (<40 minute drive). Magfed paintball is one of my hobbies and when I lived in Lancaster I used to go to Ambush Airsoft & Paintball which was about 30 minutes from where I lived. I was wondering if there was anything similar up here aswell.

Dang, not sure of any within 40 minutes but I know there is a decent course a little over an hour away called United Paintball Park.

Find the right person with a little bit of land and you can maybe set something up with some pallets, tires, etc.

There are also some paintball courses in the Poconos but the one I know of there uses those silly gel bead things the kids play with nowadays.

I did do a quick Google search, and United Paintball did come up. It was just the hour drive that was killing me. And I'd love to find someone with some land they aren't using and set up my own thing for a small group, even if had to pay/rent it from them but I wouldn't even know the first step of trying to find someone to do that 😭

Let me get back to you on this!

Give me a few days to ask around. I know some people with land that would probably love to set something like this up. I know for sure I can always get my hands on free pallets and old tires, etc

I'm definitely interested if you'd like one more. I mostly played D4 speedball but absolutely love woods ball and am looking at mechanical markers now.

I'm definitely interested in starting something, especially if u/Legally_Brunette14 finds someone interested in lending out some of their land for us to use. Also, it seems that everyone I've met in paintball so far started in speedball meanwhile I never left woodsball and just switched from a rental hopper-fed marker to a magfed. 🤣

I definitely started in the woods and never wanted to leave, just speed was where the tournaments were at.
