It was a blast! First time and I am looking forward to doing again soon. The competitive nature with small risk of injury (paint balls do hurt - but a thick loose sweater deadens the impact) really sold this for me. Two tips - learn to use the cover and shoot with either hand. read more

Super cool idea for my sons 18th bday, he invited a friend & they both got loads of paintballs, protection vests, masks, (which they get to keep) for under 200$ The place is family friendly, lots of outside seating with coverage, there was even a kids bday happening. We saw lots of people walking around in full body gear! Dope! We even brought back food for both boys. My son very much enjoyed himself! We would love to return!! read more

Been here a couple times now, two separate birthday parties for my boys. One paintball party we had here in August and the other we had her there following April. Admission and rental is $20/person and our groups varied each time between 8-12 players. Each participant with their admission fee gets a paintball helmet that they get to keep, a paintball gun w/muzzle protector. And a large box of paintball to divide up within the players. For an extra fee you can also purchase additional protection gear for the chest, forearms and or shins. But if you wear long sleeved shirts and pants, you can mitigate issues out on the courses. The paintball course vary in terrain and natural & man made cover which is nice. I love playing out in the fields and hiding behind berms in the, or you have the ability to hide behind and in vehicles. Or you get to start or opposition point. Then there's also the area for more experiences players, where you run and duck behind the inflatable cover laid out over an AstroTurf covered course. Capital Edge also has shaded outdoor seating for group events which is nice. That's where we put all of our personal and paintball stuff, not being actively used while in game. Overall: Great outdoor location. Bring clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting dirty, because that's what going to happen. And most importantly...expect to have some good old fashioned fun! read more

I had a great time here. It was an excellent walk-on scene with competitive but friendly players; everybody was just out to play ball and have fun. Refs were professional. The staging area had plenty of seating and was shaded well. Pricing was also reasonable. I especially enjoyed the 10-man Hyperball field; definitely old-school cool! read more

Totally recommend going to this paintball park. The staff was very welcoming and helping my family set up. We had such a great time! Shout out to Ref Anthony T for his patience and being an awesome Ref!!! Please go and support this park. They also renovated the fields from the last time I went and it's great with the addition of shade over the tables. Overall 10/10 experience and will definitely be coming back to have another great time! read more

Although I didn't go, when our group of students can back, they were extremely excited and can't wait to go back. I think the reason being is they were able to "get back" at some of the staff with the paint shots. They were fitted with gear, which was a huge selling point for our center. They student want to go back again in a couple months, and we're looking forward to making it happen. Thanks Capital Edge for making all of the accommodations for our students. read more

My son got a gift card to Capital Edge for his 11th birthday back in January. We've had a full schedule until this last weekend so the boys were finally able to break out the long pants and do some legit paint-balling! Both boys, both age 11 were trying this out for the first time. I wasn't nervous until they safety speech from the equipment rental desk. I could see the terror in their eyes too! Too late to turn back now. I told them not to worry and get out there! We started the first game at 11:30, just before they shut it down from 12-1230 for lunch. That worked out perfect. They boys got their first game under their belts, got some courage behind those masks and had a bite to eat before going out to get serious and play some more. Best birthday gift ever! A few things to note: *Rentals come with a face mask that you can take home; thanks Covid. Lol *Paintballs only last about a month so use up your ammo or plan to come back again soon *Wear long pants and sleeves, layers even, to cushion the blows *Bring an ice chest and lunch and sit under the shade. Bring the whole family even if they aren't shooting. It's fun! *Snack bar is limited, drinks, chips, granola bars, so bring your own if you need more options. *Hydrate! It's hot in Sac and under all those layers. *Have fun and see you out there. read more

For this being the "premier northern California paintball park" it leaves a lot to be desired. Lets start with the good, field and staging area's. Awesome covered staging area and decent fill stations. Seemed clean enough especially with all the rain that Nor-Cal has been getting. Fields had fun layouts and were swamps but again cant fault this place for that. Staff inside the staging area was nice and informative and sidenote HK Army paint is actual trash. Now for the glaring red flags and absolute abysmal stuff... Referee's : Wow what an actual disgraceful experience here. The worst referee's I've ever seen playing paintball. One referee was telling rental players to keep their mask on, Another referee immediately joked "F*** it, they signed a waiver..." continued by another referee saying "We don't get paid enough for this s**t." Why would you ever want your kid's or parties where someone could literally lose an eye to play here with this kind of attitude, and it somehow got worse from here. The Rec Ball players which are there to have fun and learn were forced to play 15 man against 9 man on a 5-7 man field vs cringe D5 players who were clearly cheating and talking shit. The referee's seemed cliqued up and I watched multiple players on this D5 team wiping and ignoring shots. I heard a player bring this up to the referee which replied "I cheat too, if you aren't cheating you aren't trying." Imagine that being the attitude of your referee in an integrity based game. Grown men cheating because they have such fragile little ego's that they can't even sit out and wait for the next game. I saw a group of guys that came to play and literally left after one game because of this trash experience. I asked why and they said they've never seen it this bad before. This is by far the worst paintball experience I've had in 15 years of playing in this sport. I was recommended by multiple people to come here and I must say, I will not be returning anytime soon. I hope to come back and see some changes but I am going to leave this as a one star review until then. This is for management! You have Brad from PBRML and Marcello Margott from Dynasty recommending your field for growth and player retention on a sport that was dying less than 5 years ago. You guy's need to take a serious look at what is happening out here and I will not recommend this field to anyone until this is figured out! read more

I'm not gonna sugarcoat things. This place sucks. The staff is a bunch of underpaid teenagers, so it's not really their fault. It's dirty (not "paintball field" dirty, more so "unattended" dirty), unprofessional, and worst of all unorganized. I've been playing for a long time. I spend hundreds here every other weekend. This place made me pay five bucks to "rent" a barrel cover (mine was in the wash) after dropping nearly $200 on paint and entry fees. A few of us watched a certain blonde man bun adorned ref tell an inexperienced player that their is "no such thing as electronic and ramping autocockers" after letting his buddies with, you guessed it, electronic autocockers play with the intermediate crowd. That same ref was caught by me and my pals giving hints to another player from the sidelines, only to yell at another player for telling his young kid to "move up" when he was on the sidelines. That particular ref is a certain kind of dirtbag. We had another ref lead our group to only one of four open fields and tell us this is the only field we get to play on the rest of the day. When I realized it didn't make sense I asked the manager why we were relegated to that one field; to which he replied "there's four fields you guys can play on, im not sure why he said that". My group (consisting of my two friends and two strangers) asked to join the intermediates since there wasn't enough for a full advanced game and said we'd be happy to change our markers to semi auto and use limited paint and not be assholes on the field. We were told no, understandably. But what do we see when the intermediates get off the field thirty minutes later? But to self equipped players who were told they could play as long as they set their markers to semi auto! Their "hyper" field is literal concrete. Not a joke or exaggeration. The ref lifted up a pitiful piece of turf and showed me some real messed up concrete, then laughed at me and said "have fun sliding!" Last but not least they just hosted a Professional event for the NXL, and they completely spat in the faces of the vendors, players, and spectators. The poor vendors were getting hit with bounce shots, the field looked thrown together as hell, the viewpoints for coaches were literally falling apart, and everything was crammed together like sardines. Absolutely ZERO respect for the game. Dust and dirt were what the poor vendors got to set up on, the little turf they had looked like my pit bull chewed it up, and it goes to show you how little they care about this sport growing. I sincerely hope to god the NXL skips Sacramento next year and goes to an actual paintball field. These are just SOME of the examples of the general chaos and anarchistic experiences here at this field. It's like the kids from "lord of the flies" decided to take over and run what was once probably a decent place. It's too bad some rich smart guy doesn't open a competing place in Sac. If he improved upon the conditions of Capital Edge just 10%, they'd put this place out of business. Unfortunately it's our only choice unless we want to go to Davis. I know this seems dramatic, but this comes from a player that cares a lot about the game and wants as many people involved as possible, and it seems that Cap Edge is doing everything in its power to stop people from wanting to play paintball. read more

Fun excellent place to take the family out and the staff is very helpful and caring my boys brought me there for a father day gift and I overheated so I needed to leave early and the staff was right on it making sure I was cooled down and hydrate it before I left they was great and every way thank you for your hospitality it was awesome read more

Of all the paintball fields that I've ever been to, Capital Edge by far has the best fields to play on. I really enjoyed the different kinds of fields that they have to offer. From hyper ball to speed ball, you're bound to find a field to your liking. The field pricing is pretty competitive. They're a field-paint-only establishment, but they had good quality paint so I couldn't complain. I only have two minor complaints about this place: 1. They only match rental players with rental players and self-equipped players with self-equipped players. Now I agree with why they do this; however, I came with a group that had a mixture of both. I felt as if it was hard for my friends who rented to have a good time because they were virtually only matched with other self-equipped players in order to play with the group. I understand that they can play with other rental players, but it was more important for everyone to play together. 2. I have mix feelings about the staff. The refs were pretty good--especially the kid with the longer hair. He went out of his way to gather players in the staging area and I noticed that during his off time, he was picking up boxes and cleaning up trash. Overall the refs were great. Now for everyone else, I can't say the same. I didn't think that the people checking us in were the friendliest or the most welcoming. I was asking about how to navigate the different fields and they just told me to go look around. The guys next to them who handled the rental equipment were speeding and mumbling through their instructions which left us confused and clueless. I also think it was rather unprofessional that they're throwing paintballs at each other. Lastly, big dude next to the tree who got the games going needs to work on his social skills. He couldn't greet anyone, and for me to ask him any question seemed like pulling teeth. He just flat out ignored me. I get that it was hot and smoky, but damn. Overall the field was great. The games were awesome. And the others that played there were also fun to be around. I just think there needs to be some kind of older, more mature management overseeing everything because I felt as if the staff was a bunch of 16-20 year olds just there to have fun with their friends and not be attentive to paying customers. Other than that, I'd give this place 5 stars for sure. read more

We went to celebrate my sons bday here and the kids had a blast. I think the adults had just as much fun if not more !! The staff was great and helpful throughout the whole process. They have referees out on the playing field to help run the games. They do offer drinks and snacks but it's ok to bring in your own. With all the running around you will do running away from being hit by the paint balls you will definitely need the bottles of water. This is a great outdoor activity to bring the kids to enjoy and for the adults as well. We will definitely be back to enjoy some more fun read more

The kids went for a birthday party and had so much fun. Great service. Easy instruction. Courses were fun!

This place is hands down the best! Refs are chill. The layouts are dope and change often.

In my younger years I enjoyed paintball in the back woods of my neighbor's property. Now with my own children, I was saddened by the decline in paintball opportunities in the area around my home. So when I found Capital Edge Paintball, and visited the site to get a feel for the grounds, I was very much impressed. The staff are extremely friendly to all ages and are very good with training and handling all levels of experienced players. From joining mixed groups to reserving for private matches, this paintball enthusiast was impressed. The setup of many different fields, with varieties of cover and maneuver aspects makes the experience at Capital Edge Paintball the best someone could ask for. I highly recommend this site for paintballers who are new or long time pro's, and I will continue to use them for paintballing expeditions! read more

This is the best place in Sacramento to play SpeedBall/Air ball. My team comes out on a bi-weekly basis and all the staff there are friendly. This place hosts almost monthly tournaments and from time to time, you can see the great paintball players like Zach Long..etc Also, I have seen Bob Long , the manufacturer there a few times. The owner is this place is Dave Bains and he is always there talking to all the customers. They are currently new and are expanding monthly. Currently, they have about 4 fields: 1) 10vs10 Air Ball 2) 7vs7 Air Ball 3) Dirt Bunkers 4) Hyper Ball (Cylinders) The separation between entry and the fields are nicely organized so that it isn't confusing. There is lots of parking on NON-Tournament days. The refs are really nice and call out games every so often so that walk ons play consistently throughout the day. They also hold raffles on a monthly basis to win Gear. Also, they serve hot food so if you hungry, you can buy items when ever. Pros: Nice Refs Nice Staff Lots of People Nice Enviroment (Safe) You can compete with Tournament players if you like. Dave Bains plays with you. People help you learn how to play They Lend you tables to setup. Cons: Driveway is Horribly Paved Not near freeway. Price (As with all paintball fields) (20 entry/5 Air) **Not a Scenario Paintball Field Neutral: 3000PSI and 4500PSI fills =) **Update: This paintball field is not for scenario paintball players. Only speedball is found here. read more

Couldn't ask for a better birthday party, everybody was accomodating and pleasant, the whole day was great

Capital Edge Paintball Park (CEPP) is a first class establishment. The whole Bains family is involved in the fields operation and treats all of their customers as family. It is not uncommon for either Dave or Deep going around, checking with all the players to make sure they are having a good time. CEPP is the type of place where the staff knows every customer by name. CEPP has a something for everyone. You can find all levels of players there every weekend. They even breakdown the recreational players into beginner and intermediate, so everyone has a good time. Currently they offer 2 xball turf fields, 7-man turf field, dirt mound field, tire field and a large scenario style field. They also have 2 grass areas ready for expansion. Tip: Be sure to use the water misters to cool off during the summer months. read more

Hey Everyone! Just finished my Son's Birthday Party and just wanted to give two Thumbs up to Capital Edge Paintball. It turned out to be such a fun event for the boys. First of all, the staff and management at Capital Edge are so friendly and helpful. They really made the event very kid friendly and a blast for them. Secondly, they are very safety oriented. From safety equipment and gear to rules of game play, their operation is one that I felt totally at ease sending my kids in to play. Lastly, the course maps were large and full of fun obstacles to play through. I would very much suggest Capital Edge as a party event for any kids or adults who want to get some seriously fun paint shooting in. Thanks guys!! Les W read more

Definitely going back. They have several playing fields and all of them fun and challenging to play with. They also have a spot for small kids. Been here 2x already. The 2nd time though was not as fun because it was raining. Not really their fault, theyre open rain or shine. At least I know not to play in the rain. More because your goggles fog up and you can barely see anything and they have a very strict safety rule about lifting your goggles or any protective gear. But the only thing is they are quite expensive with both entrance and merchandise, especially their paintballs... 1000 paintball can go quickly especially if you like to rock and roll on your opponent. read more

Airball fields are not managed properly. Bunkers are not blown up by staff as they expect team players to do it for them. They do not have any staff on the fields to ref games, wipe bunkers down, or ensure things are going smoothly. Even one ref for the both fields would suffice. Shows me that CEPP does not value teams enough to pay a ref to support these fields. read more

Attended my 2nd birthday party at the park and played with my sons friends for the first time. I was very impressed with how safety conscious the staff are and during the games and in the park in general, safety is the priority above all. A very fun time for all, adults and children. I highly recommend the park for birthday parties, the staff teach and treat beginners very well and do not mix experienced players and beginners keeping the beginners safe and able to have a good time. We will be having my sons birthday party there later this year. Thanks Capital Edge Paintball for a great time!! read more
