Anyone playing paintball? If so - where?

pangris1 · Jan 22, 2017

So the twins just hit 10 years old and wanted to play paintball for their birthday. The only local field I could find was The Armory, who answered their phone last weekend to say they would be open 1/21. Due to the rain the field flooded and that turned out to not be the case so we ended up on the Northshore at Paintball Command which was a good time, good set up but a bit of a drive.

Are there any fields in BR I'm missing? We went to the Armory to find out they were closed as they didn't answer/reply to texts Saturday AM. Looks like a speedball only kind of set up. Liked the fact that Paintball Command had multiple fields and game types.

In any case, I can't believe that in a market the size of BR there is only one relatively small field in Denham with spotty phone answering.

Thanks!

I played for a while few years back.
We always did private "outlaw" stuff but as of a couple years ago it died out.
From those I have spoke to The Armory is a nice place to go but as you said it is speedball oriented.
Hard to Beat Paintball Command imo.
Worth the drive from B.R. everytime I've gone.
For whatever reason paintball and other non-traditional sports seem to struggle around here.

I like Levena's field (huge, speedball and standard, ctf/assault etc fields). They're way out by Lafayette though.

There used to be a place just off the west side of Greenwell Springs Road, between Wax and Hooper. Haven't been in like 15 years, tho. Edit: Think this is it: https://www.infosports.com/paintball/595.shtml

If Levena's is anything like Paintball Command I can appreciate it would be difficult for somewhere else to open here and be competitive as a business. Paintball Command is a well run operation.

IS - my bad, thinking of my past experience, as in this weekend was pretty impressive.

Levena is pretty much solid in terms of referees and clock management. Plus their rentals work well. The field can get muddy though- and they have no qualms about playing in the mud :P

In between Watson and Denham Springs on Highway 16 across the street from Arnold Road (Hwy 1025) there is a place called The Armory.
