GOT PAINTBALL ??? Riyadh - KSA
Hey fellows,
Asking for a favor here more than giving out info.
I and a good friend of mine are on the verge of opening a recreational PAINTBALL field just about 30km from the center of Riyadh. This will be a reservation only place. So to get to the point, we just want to get the word out and get some response on whether this will be successful in our expat community?
We are not opening this for the public and do not intend to either anytime soon. Just for compound residents, corporate, and the expat community as a whole.
I would really really appreciate if I can get some response on whether this will be a hit or a flop ?
Any ideas ?
More than welcome to give some advice as well. Everything from paint to the land has been discussed and decided. We just need some feedback to see what to expect. Also going to be going around local compounds and meeting up with recreation coordinators and advertising ourselves.
Thanks in advice guys...

Would you not have any hassle then about importing the guns (markers)? I for one would be very interested and could imagine a lot of the guys in our company going for it (we have 1200 employees, 90% non-Saudi). The question would be though, would it be a long-term success? You would have a problem in the hight of summer and in winter, I think that the weather would again put a lot off of it. It would be nice to see though - there's little enough to do here in your spare time as it is (and a few of the people at work have had it coming to them for a long time)

In addition we will put everyone interested on an updated email list, which info to everything? I'm not discussing the location since we want to keep this private. Extreme summer and winters can be dealt with, this is going to be a weekend thing. Extreme summers - we'll play in the nights, we are getting flood lights setup over there, extreme winters, we'll be playing and setting up in the mornings and closing early. Also we're going with a HPA setup no CO2 so dont have to worry about all of its issues. HPA is better in the long run and more stable always.
Anyhow ... interested in knowing where you work and if you can help us get the word out kudos to you
Awaiting your reply ...

Thanks for your prompt response, first of all we have done ALL the research necessary getting markers to setting up turf for the speed ball field is all done, location is set. We just need to see feedback. If possible, can you send me your email and company info? I'll send you guys a flyer or perhaps come pay a visit to your company and introduce a corporate offer?
