Rules of Engagement
1. KEEP YOUR EYE PROTECTION ON
Approved eye protection must be worn at all times while
in the chronograph & target range and while in the
battle zone. If you take your eye protection off in these
areas you are risking the loss of an eye. Any participant
that is found not wearing eye protection in these areas
will be immediately removed from the game. If this
happens twice the participant will be removed permanently
for the day without refund. While in the battle zone, if
you must clean your eye protection, do not remove it.
Wipe the outside off with your gloves, shirtsleeve, a
handkerchief or a clean soft rag. Never lift the eye
protection and wipe the inside. If they can't be wiped
and/or your vision is impaired, then leave the battle
zone or call for assistance in leaving the battle zone.
If your eye protection comes off, comes loose from the
frame, comes loose at the strap or lens cracks in the
battle zone, place your hands over your eyes, drop to the
ground, call out: "EMERGENCY!" and yell for assistance.
Do not look up. Anyone assisting must hover over the
participant until he gets the eye protection on and/or is
escorted out of the battle zone. Never shoot at anyone
who is not wearing approved eye protection.
2. REMOVE THE MAGAZINE FROM THE WEAPON, DISCHARGE ANY
CHAMBERED ROUNDS AND TURN THE SELECTOR TO SAFE
Magazines should be removed, selectors should be on safe
while in the staging, store and parking areas, and before
and after the game in the battle zone. If you leave your
magazine engaged, the weapon in fire mode in these areas
and/or at these times you are risking accidental
discharge of your weapon. Any participant found with a
magazine engaged, a weapon not selected to safe in these
areas and/or at these times will be warned. If this
happens twice the participant will be removed permanently
for the day without refund.
3. NO DISCHARGING OF WEAPONS EXCEPT INSIDE THE COURSES.
Weapons should not be discharged in the staging, store or
parking areas. This also means no discharging blank
shots. If you discharge your weapon in these areas you
are risking accidentally shooting a participant who is
not wearing eye protection. Any participant found
discharging his weapon in these areas will be warned. If
this happens twice the participant will be removed
permanently for the day without refund.
Other important rules and procedures of play:
Any participant not abiding by or abusing these rules can
be dismissed by Xtreme Airsoft staff without refund.
ADMINISTRATIVE
Xtreme Airsoft reserves the right to decline or accept
any person as a participant in any game at any time,
including prior to initiation or during a game.
• All participants must sign a waiver (see above) and
read/watch/listen to all rules and procedures of play
before games can begin.
• All participants must be 18 years of age or older.
Participants under 18 must have guardian consent.
Participants under 14 must also be accompanied on the
field by a player over 18.
• The use of alcohol and drugs is prohibited. Intoxicated
persons will be dismissed for the day without refund.
• Props and identification devices may not be altered in
any way.
• It is expressly forbidden to shoot the lights and
cameras on purpose. Any participant that is caught doing
so will be warned. If this happens twice the participant
will be removed permanently for the day without refund
and banned for life, also without a refund.
EQUIPMENT
• Only equipment approved by Xtreme Airsoft is allowed.
Firearms, knives, and explosives are strictly forbidden.
• Observe all safety rules applicable to firearms when
handling Airsoft weapons or other devices capable of
launching projectiles.
EYE PROTECTION
Goggles/Facemasks with ear protection or balaclavas are
required. Eye protection must meet the following
requirements:
1. Polycarbonate lens construction that meets or exceeds
ANSI Z87.1 or ANSI Z80.3 standards.
2. Eye protection must set securely against the face. No
gaps that a 6mm pellet could pass through may be present.
3. Airsoft Wire Mesh Goggles are not allowed.
WEAPON VELOCITY AND SAFETY
• All participants intending to use their own equipment
must have their weapon(s) chronographed before playing.
• Field velocity limit for games is 300 FPS with .20 gram
BBs. Depending on circumstances certain games will have a
350 FPS or 400 FPS limit. These games will be clearly
announced and open to players at the discretion of the
referees and owners of Xtreme Airsoft. If your weapon(s)
shoots faster than FPS required for that game your hop-up
will be adjusted and you might be required to use a
muzzle velocity decelerator. If a muzzle velocity
decelerator is needed to turn your gun down and you do
not have one we will provide one free of charge ($10
deposit required that will be returned when you give the
decelerator back).
• All Airsoft Guns will be chronographed before they are
allowed on the field. Xtreme Airsoft reserves the right
to recheck them at any point during the time you spent in
the facility.
• Any participant that makes adjustments to his/her
weapons that could potentially affect the FPS after they
have been chronographed should have them chronographed
again before taking them in the courses. • Any
participant that is caught adjusting the FPS after
his/her weapons have been chronographed and not
resubmitting them to be chronographed before bringing
them onto the courses will be warned. If this happens
twice the participant will be removed permanently for the
day without refund and banned for life, also
without a refund.
• Metal BBs are expressly forbidden. No exceptions! Any
participant caught using them will be banned for
life without a warning.
• Any participant found not abiding by or abusing these
standards will be warned. If this happens twice the
participant will be removed permanently for the day
without refund.
BOUNDARY
• The active battle zone boundaries are clearly marked.
No participant may move outside the perimeter of the
active battle zone. Participants that travel out of
bounds during play are automatically eliminated.
• Participants may not shoot through the boundaries into
other areas of play.
INITIATION AND CESSATION
• Games start and stop with a horn or whistle blow.
• Participants can stop the game in a case of emergency.
Participants can call out: "EMERGENCY!" if there is an
injury or someone's eye protection is off. During an
EMERGENCY, all participants must stop play.
• No faking of injuries. This is not an acceptable
tactic.
COVER
• No rearranging the battle zone in any way or building
of barricades. There are a few movable walls and carts
that will be described by the referee that can be used. •
No participant may take with him into the battle zone or
fashion while there, an object designed to function as a
shield against being hit, unless previously approved by
Xtreme Airsoft personnel.
ELIMINATING THE OPPONENT
• Blind shooting at close range is disallowed.
• Deliberate point blank shots are not allowed.
Deliberate point blank shots are cause for immediate
removal from the game. If this happens twice the
participant will be removed permanently for the day
without refund.
• Headshots count. However, we discourage shooting at the
head, neck and groin areas. No participant may
intentionally shoot at any other participant's head or
face.
GETTING HIT
• Rounds that ricochet and hit do not count.
• If a participant's weapon is hit, it is considered
useless. You can switch to a backup weapon if you have
one, or when you don't have one you can go to respawn.
• A participant that shoots himself or is shot by his own
teammate is considered hit.
• If two participants hit each other simultaneously, both
participants are eliminated.
• Any participant caught ignoring a hit during play will
be considered hit and will be warned. If this happens
twice the participant will be removed permanently for the
day without refund.
ELIMINATION
• If a participant is hit anywhere, he is considered hit
and should go to one of the respawn areas.
• A participant that is hit must raise his arms and call
out that he's been hit.
• The participant should then hold his weapon above his
head and go to the respawn area. Once he has entered the
respawn area he can join the game again.
• In case of a limited or no respawn game once a
participant has reached the maximum respawns or has been
eliminated he should raise his weapon and call out that
he is out.
• He should then walk to the exit door with his weapon
above his head. Once there he should - before exiting -
he should remove the magazine, discharge any chambered
rounds and report to the preparation room. • An
eliminated participant must remain at the preparation
room until the end of the game.
• No "liberating" of weapons and/or equipment from
eliminated participants unless consent is verbally
expressed beforehand.
• Eliminated participants and particpants on their way to
respawn are not allowed to communicate in any way with
other active participants.
• Eliminated participants or particpants on their way to
respawn should leave their eye protection on.
• Active participants that walk with eliminated
participants or particants on their way to respawn will
automatically become eliminated/hit participants. In the
past, this unacceptable tactic has been used to trick
participants.
• Eliminated participants or particpants on their way to
respawn should not shoot while on the way to the exit
door and or respawn area, as this will distract and
confuse active participants. This also means no
discharging blank shots.
• Always leave your eye protection on on the field. Never
assume that everyone knows the game is over or hears the
whistle.
NEUTRALITY
• A neutrality symbol is a weapon, without a magazine,
held above the head.
• A participant is emphatically disallowed from shooting
at any other participant showing a neutrality symbol, any
non-participant or any staff member.
• No one may deliberately shoot an eliminated
participant, a particpant going to a respawn are, staff
member or spectator. Participants who do so will be
immediately removed from the game. If this happens twice
the participant will be removed permanently for the day
without refund.
• Active participants that fire upon eliminated
participants or particpants on their way to a respawn
area who do not clearly display the elimination signals
and procedures cannot be held accountable.
• Eliminated participants or particpants on their way to
a respawn area, staff members, or spectators cannot be
used as cover or shields.
SURRENDER
• Participants may ask opponents within 10ft to
surrender, but the opponent is not required to respond.
If they do respond that they surrender, it is the same as
being eliminated.
HONOR
• Participants with tempers should leave them at home.
Participants may not contact or grab anyone in an
aggressive manner.
• Participants may not aggressively touch anyone or cause
anyone to fall. Violation of this rule is cause for
immediate and permanent removal without refund. If it
happens a second time the participant will be banned
for life.
• No unsportsmanlike conduct, arguments, threats, racial
or personal derogatories, abusive or foul language,
taunting, provoking, obscene gestures, or verbal
aggression is allowed.
• Participants reported to be shouting "YOU'RE HIT!" or
similar phrases at other participants will be considered
to be displaying aggressive behavior and will be warned.
If this happens twice the participants will be removed
permanently for the day without refund.
• Participants caught stealing will be turned over to
local law enforcement. If it happens a second time the
participant will be banned for life.
• Always give your opponent the benefit of the doubt.
PHYSICAL
If a participant is out of shape or gets too hot, he or
she should pace him/her self. Take up a defensive
position and rest. The action will eventually come to the
participant. The game can be more physically demanding
than participants may be used to. Participants with heart
conditions or other ailments should have a physician's OK
to play. Airsoft is an inherently dangerous activity,
requiring significant physical exertion. Participation
carries inherent risks that cannot be eliminated. Risks
include, but are not limited to, minor injuries (such as
scratches, bruised or strained muscles and ligaments),
major injuries (such as loss of eyesight, joint or back
injuries, heart attacks and concussions), and
catastrophic injuries (such as paralysis or death). All
participation is voluntary. Participants knowingly assume
all such risks.
GENERAL
Trash must not be left in the battle zone, nor in the
staging or parking areas. Please place all trash in the
appropriate trashcans located in the staging area.
National, regional and local laws apply.
