Yes, well  Paintball Fever has finally opened after close to 4 years of toil and trouble. So much for just rolling out a few drums and chucking up a bit of shade-cloth!!

There is believe us, a lot more to it than that. We kicked it off with a family and friends day on Sunday the 9th of July with what we hope was a great day for all. Check out some shots in "The Shots" area.

During the journey  there have been a lot of people who helped us in one way or another. Some also tried to hinder us. No thanks to them. They know who they are.

So in no particular order, we’d like to thank;

Firstly our wives Jacqui and Mel for allowing us to spend so much time and money on this hair-brained scheme.

Our families and friends for words of encouragement and hands on this project. [see hair-brained scheme].

Our very special thanks to  Scotty Stokes, R.I.P. for helping us build our field in the early days while also working on getting his own up and running. He did this because we were his friends and it was for paintball. That was Scotty. He was just as good with a hammer as a marker too.  We dedicate our opening to him and the girls.

Hi All.

Well, with the help of Steve, John, Keith and Phil and being fuelled by the Cooper's family wares, we are just a few weeks away from opening possibly one of the largest natural bush fields in the state.

You will have no choice but to get down and dirty and hope that the cammo's are working. It's gonna be a case of "Search and Enjoy".

We will keep you posted on when the bushwackin will begin.

Also, we have dropped our prices.  It's now even more affordable to open that big can of WOOPASS upon your mates who so richly deserve it!!

The whole team at Paintball Fever would like to wish everyone a happy, prosperous and fantastic new year.  All the best for 2008!!

And now for the latest news!

As we speed past Christmas and head into 2008, best we let you know what's been happening at Paintball Fever. Thrill-seekers have been up to play some ball and enjoy the fine weather we put on in our parts this time of year. Rain? What's that?  Though we have had a bit to add a tinge of green to the place.

I have also finally got my act together enough to dump a whole swag of shots of the action on our snowed under webmaster, Brian.

They kick off right "here" with Ross's neighbs havin' a cool time way back in the lazy hazy days of last summer.

Paintball Fever now offers a great travel package. Cruise up in style. Show your style on the field.  Check out the details on the link below:-

It's taken some time but with all the help from the gang, we have finally opened our "Search and Enjoy" field.  It's like promised, possibly one of the largest natural bush fields around. It's damn near impossible to see the enemy as you start your search. Usually the first sign of them is the sound of a marker and a paintball whizzing past your ears. It makes for some tense action that's for sure.

Why not come get some !

In other news, we are now offering half day packages. Check out our prices for all the info.

Meanwhile, people have been up to play and had a good time, we thinks. Cheers to all who have. Big ups too to all members of Team Fever for making it happen. You rock.

Recently, nature provided the special effects: thunder, lightning, rain; well a few drops in the morning, as the guys took to the field for Russell's Thunderball Tour. The tempest was not just in the sky from then on. A veritable hail of paintballs for the rest of the day ensued. Most of them landing on the yellow team. Yep, red team did the damage.

Check out the action from the bru haha in "The Shots."  The storm though may possibly not be over with talk of a rematch. No doubt yellow team would like to rain on red's parade next time.

Cheers, Team Fever.
