Dear Reader,

In case you were wondering about JAEGERS Paintball, here’s a brief history on how we have built this unique business. In the summer of 1993, three partners started looking for underground space to play paintball in and a limestone mine fit the bill. After a month or more of visiting around 2 dozen mines, one of the partners ran an ad in the Kansas City Star newspaper stating that we were looking for cave space and we found the future home of JAEGERS Subsurface Paintball. After a lot of physical work and the unique challenge of explaining what paintball was to insurance companies, government officials, and other businesses, we opened our doors on Saturday, December 3rd, 1994. The novelty and uniqueness of the cave brought in a lot of customers; however, it has been our focus on safety, customer service and quality principles that has made JAEGERS Subsurface Paintball the first and only underground paintball field in the world and a growing business for 25 years. We thank all our past and current customers for choosing JAEGERS Paintball.

Sincerely,
JJ  - Founder

F.A.Q.

Shooting plastic pellets at speeds of up to 200mph while traversing all sorts of obstacles and muddy terrain doesn’t sound like the safest of pursuits - so how safe is paintball? There’s no denying those paintballs can sting, and may even leave a bruise if they hit any exposed skin, but in reality, you’re no more likely to pick up an injury paintballing as you are playing football, rugby or any other sport that can result in scrapes and bruises. It might surprise you to learn that despite all those high-velocity paintballs flying about, twisted ankles are the most common type of paintball injury

While the staff at every professional paintball park or playing field does its best to keep players safe and safety equipment is used to prevent injury, paintballs can sting on impact to bare skin. Players are encouraged to use equipment available for rent or sale at paintball parks from overalls and neck protectors to gloves and padded chest protectors to take the “sting” out of their first few games. For younger players or those just beginning their paintball adventure, we now offer “low impact” option of play in which smaller paintballs fired at lower speeds are used to practically eliminate the sting from the game, making paintball safe and fun for all ages!

Paintball has been described as one of the most enjoyable adrenaline action games in the world! Players work together with their teammates to run, dive, creep, crawl and sneak towards and around opponents to tag them with paintballs and attempt to capture an opposing team’s flag to win! Paintball, when played with friends and family, is enjoyable, great exercise and ideal for church groups, corporate team-building, school outings or just plain having fun outside, off the couch and in the action

Paintball is open to all ages, but while paintball safety equipment is, generally, one-size-fits-all, younger players often cannot be safely fitted with goggles and face masks, limiting ages to around ten. However, the advent of low-impact paintball and more youth-specific equipment has opened the doors to even younger paintball players, allowing children as young as eight and nine to get in on the action and fall in love with paintball in a safe, organized and supervised environment!

Reservations are generally required to play the game of paintball if players intend to bring a large group. For example, those intending to enjoy a day of paintball with a bachelor party, church group, birthday party or corporate business outing should contact jaegers paintball park to set up reservations, especially because our park offers private group rates and even package discounts and deals for parties and groups! That said, more experienced players, once they’ve acquired their own paintball equipment, often simply show up at the local field for “pick-up” games or “walk-on” games in which players are separated by skill level to ensure a safe and enjoyable day of play!

Sometimes it hurts!
