New Date! 15/8/21
Let’s do it! Time to get some regos in and have a great little event.
Price will be $250 rego / entry per team and we will iron out paint in the next few weeks.
Let us know if there is a particular paint that you would like and we will do our best (zero guarantees).
Hi to all who have been waiting for an excuse to get out and about again.
It’s safe to say it’s been a long year for us and it’s nice to be having customers through again.
So we are good to go! No limitation of 10 anymore.
So… Let’s Bring it on! Time for us to catch-up on all the birthday parties, work functions and bucks parties that we have missed out on all year.
Word has already gotten out and we are booking out fast so get in quick to avoid disappointment!
See you all soon!
Following todays update from the Premier, the tournament is set to kickoff in a far more normal fashion. Needless to say we are very excited to have it all going again. That said, here’s where we sit today….

Life has gotten a lot easier with the new COVID rules but there are a few things we still need to be doing.
1. Contact tracing still needs to occur. Apart from the waiver there will be a second form that you will need to use to sign in and out of the venue.
2. The restrictions about masks have eased a lot but there are still some requirements that we need to remain compliant with. Masks still need to be carried and worn when indoors, or when people cannot social distance themselves. It’s fair to say that a lot of the players are a friendly, touchy feely bunch when they play in a team but we need to make sure that people keep doing the right thing so we don’t get stitched up by not playing by the rules.
We will be setting the team pits on field 3 to keep plenty of distance from the rental players coming through. This may make us a little short on tables. If you have trestle tables that you can bring please do. The 7-day forecast suggests that the temperature will be 27 degrees next Sunday so please bring shade, fluids and sunscreen as well.
As always : Gates will open at 7am, captains meeting at 8 and unless I blow a burst disk again or something, guns up at 8.30.
On that note, do us a favour, don’t try to start coming through before 7am, even if we are here, we will need a little time before to start getting ready.
See ya next week!
The rest of the info will be as per the previous information..
Firstly, we want to acknowledge all the people that have enquired about the paintball safety courses since the lockdowns started in March. In any other year, this would have represented a huge amount of players and teams that would have entered the sport. Unfortunately a turd of a virus had other ideas and stopped the safety courses in their tracks as well as the rest of our industry.
But things are looking up and we are starting to kick off the safety courses again.
The next 2 dates that we will run are :
Sunday 15/11/20 – 12.30pm
Sunday 22/11/20 – 12.30pm
We will look to add some more in the coming weeks if people cannot do Sundays.
Course cost is $30
Bring Photo ID such as drivers license
Takes about 1-1.5 hours + the test.
To Book – SMS Mathew on 0408535421 with the session that you would like to join.
Bring and wear a face mask for the duration of the test.
We will be ensuring social distancing occurs throughout the course and test.
The course will be completed outdoors to help meet our requirements.
All participants will need to sign in at reception for contact tracing purposes.
Both sessions are limited to 10 people but we will add other timers if needed.
Cheers, hope to see you all soon!
Well what a year…
Who would have thought the industry and sport we all love would have been closed down for this long.
While its nice to have training back, we have decided we need to sneak in a tournament before the mess that is 2020 is over.
So here it is, time to dust off the cobwebs and see who still has what it takes.
3v3 – open pool.
Race to 2 format. Round Robin – Split deck games if required.
$250 per team rego – Draxxus Gold is back and $85 per box.
29th Nov – Gates open at 7 – Captains meeting at 8 – Guns up 8.30.
As always, REFs Inc will keep you all in line.
Get the regos in so we can plan but looking forward to seeing some competition back.
We will have a 1v1 competition added to the day – Completely Voluntary.
The 1v1 structure will depend a little on the level of interest.
1v1 will cost $20 – Half the cash will go to the winner, half will go to fXCK Cancer fundraiser.
We will be doing some additional fundraising for this great cause on the day as well so dig deep if you can.
Covid-19 has caused a huge change to daily life in Australia already and if cases continue to rise, this may continue or increase. We wanted to take a moment to address what we are doing at Snipers Den paintball to make sure we are operating in the safest way possible. At the end of the day, we want all of our customers to have a fun time but more importantly, be safe in the process.
There are a few reasons that we are comfortable in continuing to operate. If things change in the future, we would of course reassess this.
There are systems that we already have in place already and is best practice from a hygiene perspective.
Due to the increased risk of transmission at the moment, we are stepping things up in a few areas to minimise the potential of transmission at the venue.
We have always purchased toilet paper in bulk and have plenty onsite so no-one needs to BYO.
We hope you all continue to participate in paintball at Snipers Den as we go through what we hope is a small interruption from a short-lived virus in Australia.
Cheers,
Mathew
