This new approach to facilitation and experiential education combines the thrilling experience of a paintball game with the sequenced facilitation of an educational adventure.
Before beginning play, each person is outfitted with a paintball face mask, and a paintball marker which uses .68 caliber, water-soluble paintballs. A referee explains the safety rules, and then instructs the teams in a variety of incredibly fun and challenging games that will focus on your groups stated goals. Team Paintball is excellent for developing advanced problem solving skills, communication, and group coordination.

Team building can make the difference between co-workers who succeed or who fail as a team. Team building can help create a smoother workplace amongst members of any group. Mistrust, bad communication skills and lack of responsibility are many factors which can have an enormously negative impact on a team, a department, and a company. Our team-building program can help break through those barriers by getting team members immersed in games and situations where problem solving, goal setting and reliability play key roles. Working together as a team creates confidence and trust between individuals, enabling them to overcome problems and roadblocks both on and off of the paintball field.
