Free Paintball (Ministry of Paintball)

Ministry of Paintball are offering a free paintball day out.

http://www.ministryofpaintball.com/freebies-887379

Each VIP offer recieves;
Free equiptment hire
Free latest semi-auto gun
Free access to over 100 sites (UK wide)
Bonus free lunch (at most sites)
What's not included:
The first 100 paintball will need to be purchased in advance either online or over the phone which is £11.50 per player in order to place a booking.
This is simply to secure a date and to make sure all the players turn up on the day. This acts as a deposit as you may understand that we need to get marshals booked and lunch ready for these players and if they don't turn up, our games would be running on low numbers and other players that wanted that date could have been turned away.Additional paintballs are purchased on the day.

    Please be careful with this one. A couple of years ago I bought a package from this company which seemed very reasonable, however when I looked into it it was so expensive to buy the additional balls you needed (I as told each person would need at least 200 balls) that I didn't go ahead and book. This may be a better deal as it's free but best to check the total cost before you book.

    You'll shoot 100 paintballs in no time (a couple of minutes of heated battle). That's where they make their money!
