Father & Son

[cmar2525]

One of the greatest joys in my life so far has been getting my 14 year old son started in the game last year, and witnessing his love for the sport grow exponentially. Exact same age as when I started. Time is fleeting, but these memories will last a lifetime

Started my son playing when he was 9 and now he will be 20 this year. It’s such an absolute blast to play with him and 100 percent agree how fast time disappears. Enjoy every and all moments you get together. Just thought I would share a couple shots of time flying.

Paintball has always been a family affair for me. All 6 of my kids have played (at least once) in the last 20 years. My youngest son, sadly doesn't talk to us right now so these memories are what I have. But I loved that time with him and I hope one day he will decide to come back.

The oldest picture (probably around 2005) we all were so young! That was the height of our tournament play. My oldest son still plays everytime he's home. My third oldest has a yearly paintball event with his youth group (He's a youth pastor) and I get invited to play in Jacksonville.

Man, this is a cool thread. My dad took me to play my first real game when I was about 7 maybe. Still remember it to this day. Life is good, God is good.

My oldest started this year. He wasnt sure he liked it after his first game. Now he asks when we are going again. He has been out 3x this year and looking forward to the next.

Can’t wait till I can share paintball with my kids. Few more years and they’ll be at the right age.

Been playing with my dad since we started!




By now we've played all over the country, wish I could find our photos from the Nightmare City game, by far the coolest place we ever played. Supergame was fun though. Fulda Gap is the last big one we want to hit.




Dad started the arms race by buying an e-gripped A-5 and it's just been downhill from there haha.


He's still deadly too, last time at Supergame, final battle starts, I'm looking for where he went and somehow he's all the way at the very front, like a good ten feet ahead of anyone else, leading the vanguard lol

Father/Daughter? (getting her started this summer)

My son started playing with me when I got back into paintball 3 years ago when he was 10. He definitely prefers playing scenario games than open play. He loves wandering around looking for props and role playing. He's won a young guns award at one event, just won a lifetime membership to paintball explosion, brought home 3 new markers and tons of other small stuff. My older daughter who is 7 now keeps asking when she can come with too. My wife just got back into the sport this past summer as well.
