Don’t Underestimate Paintball Girls
Anne Morris
If you think paintball is a game only for the guys, then you
are in for a surprise. Many girls also enjoy the game and are
starting to make their presence known in the world of
paintball. There is always an all female team in every major
tournament for paintball and many females turn out to
participate. And some of them are exceptional players. Just
because the players are girls, don’t let it fool you into
thinking they are not formidable.
Actually, some say that paintball girls are better suited for
the game and have an advantage over males on the field. For one
reason, females are usually smaller and are therefore harder to
hit and it is easier for them to hide. Also paintball girls
tend to be more patient than their male counterparts and will
therefore have no problems out waiting an opponent until he
outs himself. Some have noted that paintball girls tend to bond
quicker and better than the males and therefore work together
better as a team.
Paintball girls don’t like to be restricted to playing amongst
all girls however, but are eager to compete against the men on
the paintball field. Most of the paintball tournaments have at
least a few girls competing against men.
The all girl paintball teams have taken down many all male
paintball teams. Not only do these paintball girls have to be
tough and strong to go up against the men, but they have also
had to overcome a lot of obstacles to be able to compete in
tournaments. Paintball girls may look meek and somewhat
fragile, but in this case, appearances are quite misleading.
They can use this to their advantage too as men tend to
underestimate the ability of female players of paintball. Most
paintball girls are extremely serious about the sport and they
are very good at it.
Women are no different from men in the beginning because
everyone hesitates to suffer the pain of being shot. And
getting hit by a paintball can be extremely painful. But once
the game gets underway and the adrenaline kicks in, some
paintball girls get hooked; and who could blame them? Paintball
is an exciting game that is quite competitive but is also fun to
play.
So if you thought paintball was just a guy’s game, you can see
that isn’t the case. Women are quickly joining the ranks of
exceptional paintball players and many have become aficionados
of the game. The next time you are on the paintball field,
watch out for those paintball girls, they make for formidable
opponents.
