Fans of paintball finally have 8,500 square metres of war-like terrain to play on, right in the capital.
The indoor facility can accommodate up to 40 players day or night and will operate year-round for fans of the sport, which is not for the faint-of-heart. The venture offers the latest paintball rifles - the Tippmann 98 Marker and the Tippman X-7 Assault Marker - fire gelatin bullets at up to 260 kilometres per hour.
The sprawling park features three zones: one for marksmanship, another for quickfire speedball rounds and a “scenario” zone, where paintballers sample the experience of armed combat.
Zayed Sports City Paintball is open for bookings and walk-ins from Tuesday to Thursday, 2pm to 10pm and on Fridays and Saturdays from 12pm to 8pm.
