Kinda so so bro. Only two official fields and one is on base so not everyone can go there. The field outside of base is run by Xsports and their website is www.guampaintball.com Currently rec games as well as a Guam Xball League is held at this field. They also have a scenario field in the works but the interest is very limited. I tried to introduce pump play but it didn't take off so I'm selling the last of my pumps . A lot of folks have their own backyard games as well. The other field is on the airforce base and is run by Paintball Unlimited, Inc. and I'm told it's really nice. They also have a well stocked paintball shop but again its on a military base so I can't go in. There is a small shop at the Xsports field but it's really limited to the owner placing orders based on what people want. The only other shop on island is Rush Gear but I hardly go there but they have a decent stock of paintball items.

During these hard times paintball has died down the past year. It'll be nice if more was done to promote the sport out here. There's just not enough market for someone to make a decent living out the sport out here. At least there are still diehard fans that continue to play no matter what's going on.

Dude even though its on base i belive there are normally ways.

1. Find someone in the Military who plays, there will be some, probably many and get them to escort you. As long as you arrive and leave with them its usually a case of just signing a form.

2. Call up the field soemtimes they have a field waiver so civvys can use it.

You've probably already tried both but just in case I thought id let you know.

Actually the field outside of base is pretty ok. It's just that the options are limited out here. In fact we have a bunch of Navy guys that play on this field instead of the field on the Airforce Base.

Hafa Adai,

I have been to Guam twice with the UK Refs once in 2005 and again in 2007 the second time was to start the Xsports Xball league.
It is small at the moment but I think it has the capabilities of growing into a viable event.

I had a great time on the island and if you want to see some pictures of home click the link

Hey Russ....you don't know me but I was there when you introduced xball to us. It was crazy fun. The GXL is still going on and it is slowly growing. Nice pictures especially of Gilly !

Solid!!

I moved to Louisiana in '04 and got into paintball back there... Came back to guam in '07 and paintball wasn't all that great. Few weeks ago I saw couple of pics of my friends on the mainland playing paintball and said I gotta get back into the sport.


I got all my gear back now and get some new ones.... But everytime I check out tiyan field no one is there, I have yet to check out the field on base. Anyother place I can play at?
