⚠️⚠️SAFETY⚠️⚠️
DO NOT REMOVE YOUR MASK OR GOGGLES ON THE FIELD. Airsoft players must have full-seal, impact rated goggles. Full face cover is highly recommended. All markers and replicas must have a field approved barrel cover or be holstered at all times in the safe zone. TREAT every gun/replica/marker like it's loaded. NEVER point it at what you don’t intend to shoot. KEEP your f
inger OFF the trigger and the gun/marker on SAFE until ready to fire. KNOW your target and what is beyond - DO NOT BLIND FIRE.

🥷🏿🥷🏿RESPECT THE GAME🥷🏿🥷🏿
Airsoft/Paintball are games of honor, integrity and respect. CALL YOUR HITS AND DON’T OVERSHOOT
Yelling ‘’hit’’ or ‘’out’’ and waving a dead rag and your hand or barrel. Dead men don’t talk - revealing opponent locations while inactive is cheating. Do not argue with the refs.
“REAL STEEL” is not allowed on the field during play. No knives, guns, tripwires, landmines, booby traps, etc
Do not shoot through small gaps or cracks - head size or larger. You may get hit through small gaps. You must be more than double arms length away to shoot through small gaps. ALL direct hits count. Paintballs must break. Gear, gun, or person all count as direct hits. Ricochets and splatter do not count. All burst grenades have a 10-foot kill radius unless behind cover. Cover: a bunker or wall that separates you from the blast. If you are within or outside 10 feet and are struck by BB’s, you are hit. Pyrotechnic grenades must be purchased from TCPN and used on-site.
🫡🫡RESPECT EACH OTHER 🫡🫡
It’s pretend war in the woods. Don’t take it too seriously. We’re all here to have fun. There are many other less fun things you could be doing. Notify staff of persistent rule violations. Do not argue with other players. Do not approach opposing players during any gameplay. Safety takes a backseat to no one. Remind each other about goggles and barrel bags. DO NOT LEAVE EQUIPMENT UNATTENDED. Unattended equipment is assumed to be abandoned, and placed in the lost and found. Do not touch other player equipment without permission. Spectators must wear safety equipment.
🌲🌲RESPECT THE FIELD🌲🌲
Use only stairs to climb/descend. Do not climb over bunkers or field features. Do not alter or move ANY field features whether on or off the play area. Clean up around your vehicle, do not leave trash on the field. Trash and recycling cans are available. TCP North is field paint only. Smoking is not allowed on the field. Do not leave butts on the ground. Dogs are welcome under owner control. Please clean up after your pet.
💢💢BANISHMENT WORTHY ACTIONS💢💢
Aggressive language or actions toward referees, other players or staff. Theft or vandalism, and we will call the police. Use of illegal substances, and/or intoxication. Don’t be dumb. Anyone who becomes a danger to themselves or others. Persistent breaking of the rules. We strive to create a community and environment that encourages both new and veteran players alike. This requires your voluntary action to follow field rules. TCP North reserves the right to ask you to leave for any reason.
