The following grenades have been approved for use on the field.

All grenades must be thrown underhand through doors or windows on the field. If a grenade goes over a wall it does not count.
All grenades that shoot BBs must be filled with BBs
When a grenade is thrown do not reach for it. Allow it to go off before picking it up. If a grenade is a dud, ask a ref for assistance when retrieving it.
Do not pick up other players belongings without permission. That includes rifles, pistols, grenades, and any other object that can be left on the field. If you find something that looks to have been forgotten, turn it into a ref.
Gameplay and the Field
Make sure to have both wristbands and chrono tags visible, as well as your eye protection on when entering the field
From this point on, your eye pro must stay on until you exit the field and are back in the staging area
No food or drink is allowed on the field
While waiting for your game to start, please do not fire your replica. Especially when the door is still open
When listening to the refs explain the gamemode, please do not talk or cause other interruptions. If you have a question, please ask it at the end of the game brief
Referees are the only ones allowed on ref towers and ladders. Do not climb any of these structures or any other obstacles on the field.
Any bb to a player's body or gear is regarded as a “hit”.
All replicas must remain on semi-auto. Binary, burst, and full auto fire is not allowed.
When shooting your replica, your entire hand must be holding the grip. There is no feathering or bumping of the trigger to increase rate of fire.
On kids night, there is a 10 foot minimum engagement distance. This means that you cannot shoot another player within 10 feet. If you encounter an enemy player within this distance, you must point your replica at them and say the phrase “safety kill” nice and loud so that they can hear you. Saying “bang bang”, “you're hit”, or any phrase other than “safety kill” does not count.
If this is adult night, open play, or any other session, there is NO minimum engagement distance, meaning you may shoot each other from any distance.
When you are hit, raise your hand in the air while simultaneously saying “HIT”, that way the enemy player is informed that you are out. Then, make your way back to your starting point crossing through the plastic curtains and re-enter the game.
Known as “friendly fire”, being shot by a teammate does count as a hit and you must return to respawn.
Ricochets and gun hits do not count. However, if you have a sidearm such as a holstered pistol that gets shot, that is considered part of your gear and you are now hit.
If you and another player shoot each other at the same time, that is considered a “trade”, meaning both players are hit and both must return to their respawns. If you or the other player are unsure as to who got hit first, consider it a trade and go back to respawn.
The teams are distinguished between hi-vis armbands and no armbands. If you hear “arm-bands fall back”, this means that that team must all take a respawn.
If you find yourself crossing a light blue line on the opposite side of the field from your spawn you have entered a spawn sweep. You must continue moving until you reach another line. You must not stop when within their line.
Dead men do not talk. When you are hit, do not talk to other players until you have finished respawning. Exposing enemy players positions while walking back to spawn as a “hit” player ruins the game for everyone.
Blind fire is not allowed. You must be looking directly at the target that you are intending to shoot.
You cannot place your replica or shoot through any cracks on the field. If you cannot fit your open hand through the opening, you cannot shoot through it.
Prefiring and Laning are not allowed. You cannot hold an angle and suppress an opponent.
Things you should NOT be shooting are dead players, referees, the ceiling, fans, and light fixtures.
Strobing is not allowed at any time.
Do not move any furniture or any other obstacles on the field.
Do NOT exit the field during a game without a ref.
If you are having trouble with your replica, eye pro, or anything else, please notify a ref so they can assist you. Do NOT take it upon yourself to adjust your eye protection without the assistance of a ref. They will create a safe environment for you to do so.
If you have an issue with another player, do NOT take it upon yourself to argue with them. Come to a ref with a description of the player and the issue at hand.
If you believe that you are being overshot, please let a ref know so that the situation can be handled. Please keep in mind that up to 5 bbs is normal.
When hit, immediately try to move out of the way of teammates behind you to avoid being hit more by accident
If you believe that you are shooting another player and they are not calling their hits or walking back to respawn, do not take it upon yourself to argue with them, also known as “calling other players hits”. Please come to a ref with a description of the player and we will handle it accordingly.
The referees are here to ensure your safety and regulate gameplay to provide you with a fun experience. Disrespect of any kind towards the staff is not tolerated.
After a game ends, make sure to take your mag out, clear your chamber with just 1 or 2 shots, place your barrel cover on, and disconnect your line if using hpa.
If using a pistol, make sure to place it in your holster. If you do not have a proper holster, make sure to remove the mag.
Other than clearing your chamber, shooting must stop after a game ends.
Like previously stated, your eye protection must never come off while on the field, even when gameplay is over.
Make sure a referee is present before exiting the field.
Make sure to not leave anything such as your replica, mags, fuel, grenades, etc. on the field.
