The biggest paintball park in the Middle East has opened at Sharjah Golf and Shooting Club, and if you’re trigger-happy – or just like hurting your friends – then the two new paintball fields here will be just the tonic for you.
Furthermore, if paintballing around Big Ben and Buckingham Palace are your thing then look no further, as one field is a replica of the city of London, where a London taxi and a Rolls Royce create a typical London atmosphere, along with a replica of Hyde Park, and other famous London landmarks such as Harrods and The Ritz.
Authentic London street signs, red telephone booths, lamp posts and postboxes all imported from the UK complete the London experience, while the entrance of the field is a replica of the London Underground tube, Knightsbridge station.
A hi-tech soundsystem and CCTV complete this new paintball park – so that people outside the field can watch the shoot-em-up unfold live from the safety of a television screen.
While the second field doesn’t quite have the allure of a Champs-Elysees or a Times Square, it is designed as a bank and will be used for a new concept which is a first in the UAE, known as CQC – Close Quarter Combat.
This field is furnished as the actual interior of a bank with desks, an ATM machine and a vault room and will also be monitored by CCTV.
The Sharjah Paintball Park also includes three outdoor fields that are unique in the United Arab Emirates with airplanes, jeeps, bunkers and high towers.
