The people who run this place are very nice and accomadating, always making you feel welcome (Aunty Love and the rest of the crew).We usually just go once a year for my sons bday and each time has always been great. They're welcoming and always go over everything from rules to if you need help, etc.The boys always have fun paintballing. This last time, I paid $240 for 6 boys which included everything and 100 balls each. I bought them 2 cases of 2000 balls and they lasted about 3.5 hours. Probably could have gotten away with one case but one boy was trigger happy!BRING WATER AND LAYER UP :)

Went with a party of 9 that included 5 adults and 4 children. It was the first time doing paintball for all of us.First of all, you pay a fee and that allows you to play all day if you want and gives you a paintball gun (marker), a face shield and a chest harness that allow some chest and back protection as well as 2 cannisters of paint balls. Before you are allowed onto the course to play, you have to sit through a safety briefing. The safety briefing was completely inadequate.There was no mention of gun or marker function, to include such necessary functional features like the safety button. Being retired military, I know what a safety switch is and was able to show and explain it to the rest in our party. Secondly, the majority of the rented guns had faulty safety switches. Only 2 of the guns had a functioning safety switch. The remaining 7 had free floating safety switches that would go from fire to safe depending on the orientation of the gun.There was no map to describe each course boundary and no explanation as to what the objective was. Our party of 9 was lumped in with the next group of players ready to play and we were divided into 2 groups of about 20 players per team. That's when you realize the rented guns are completely under powered compared to those guns brought from home by hard core players that spend $1200 on their guns. Their gun velocities are higher than 300fps, shoot faster, flatter, and straighter. Doing side by side comparisons, it is clear that many of the guns brought onto the course are modified to exceed 300fps.All in all it was very fun, but there is an inherent risk involved. I myself left with only one paintball bruise about half an inch wide after being ass shot, arm shot, hand shot and head shot. Others in the party had bruises 3 inches across as well as shots that caused bleeding.

Had an amazing time with our group of friends! Our friend was leaving us, so as a going away party for him, we decided to try our hand and play paint ball! It was a lot of fun! They where very kind, and let us take breaks in between as long as we needed to! For our final game, we had the our friend that was going away do a game called "Ranger". They let our friend use our game masters special gun and we thought it was a really nice touch for him. It was a really memorable day for us, we will definitely be coming back again soon! Highly recommend for big parties and even small groups of 4, but the bigger the better!

Trying out paintball was one of my bucket list. I was able to cross that off of my list during one of my friend's birthday party where we celebrated at Extreme Sports Complex Hawaii. One of my friends prepared the reservation and each of us got a paint gun, 100 pieces of paintballs, and protective gears (face covering and chest plate). The paint gun was heavier than we thought. They also have us a holder for the paintball pellets. The face covering was secure but the chest plate was pretty flimsy and doesn't have a straps to secure it to our body. Meaning, when it is a little windy, the chest plate would flap and hit our faces. At the Extreme Sports Complex, we had to play as a large group. We originally thought that we would play just among our groups, but we actually had to play together with other groups as well. We were a group of 10 people, and other groups were about the same size as ours. There were about a total of 40+ people attended that day. Throughout the day the referees would create a game scenario such as capture the flag, king on the hill, pros vs. amateurs, rangers vs. hunters, etc. Each rounds were different and a game would take about 15 minutes. We can choose to participant or sit out for that round. I do recommend to wear thick and long sleeves clothing as well as gloves because the paintballs pellets really hurt. For me personally, this is something I would not want to do again. The play area had shipping containers, wooden boxes, barrels, tires, etc. as the barrier. It was fine for a couple of rounds until the third round, someone shot my fingers and my knuckles started to bleed. I had to walk out during the middle of the game and one of the referees escorted me out of the playing field. The referees were very friendly and they prioritized safety above all else. The one escorted me out gave me a bandage and helped me carry my paint gun. He would also check up on me a couple of times before going back to the game. I had to sit out for a couple of rounds to take a break. By the time I was ready to participate the next round, it was past noon and the day got really hot. I had a hard time breathing during the middle of the round because of my thick clothing and the face covering. It was just me personally since I was never an athletic person and my stamina was not great. This place hours of operation is on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 4pm. They also sell cold drinks and foods such as hotdogs or nachos. They have 2 portable potty, where the female one locked and you need to request for the key. Overall, this place is great to try out and experience paintball. My friends did enjoy the games. The only issue we had were that there were experienced paint ballers, military personnel, and veterans that were great at the game that us amateurs (first time participants) had to go up against. It was literally a slaughterhouse for us amateurs. There is a new game for each round until they are closed. After that day, our group was bruised all over. Some had bruises worst than others.

Me and my kid played airsoft here yesterday for the first time and were very impressed with the friendliness of the staff and great layout of the field. All the employees were very helpful in directing us where to go and the steps of signing in and paying, as well as where to set up our things.The safety briefing was clear and concise, safety is clearly their top priority as well as the customers enjoying themselves. The area to set up was nice and shaded, our head ref Christian was very friendly and had the games running consistently and had enough variety in them to keep things interesting. The amount of other players on a Saturday was less than we were expecting but Christian told us this isn't normally the case and typically there were more players. The amount there was still plenty enough to have the games sufficiently full and everyone was very honest while playing. All the players were also welcoming and friendly while we were in the staging area and on the field, very nice feeling of compadre. We will definitely be back for more!

It can be very intimidating going to somewhere where everyone seems to know each other. It can also be very rewarding being invited to be part of that community.My kids wanted to try it out and Aunty Paulette was so welcoming that enough cannot be said about her and her genuine Aloha spirit. Aunty went above and beyond to make my kids feel comfortable, get them situated and advise them on the do's and don'ts. They preach safety, are thorough on detailing the rules and change up the games to keep things interesting. My daughter was so shy that she just froze on the field and didn't fire any paintballs and was stuck in one position in the back. I tried coaching her from the sidelines but she wasn't budging. All of a sudden one of the referees aka "Sumo" stood in front of my daughter and walked her to a bunker and literally showed her how to hide and pop up and down. She was still slow to pick it up but her confidence grew exponentially.Another wahine (Lovely or Lovelette) was extremely helpful as well as she manned the equipment table.I don't think they make a ton of money as a lot of people bring their own equipment so DO NOT bring your own paintballs or avoid any of their fees. Aunty Paulette you and your team are a blessing to all beginners. We will definitely see you again.

The staff was amazing! we got lost and had to start at a later time and they were super accommodating. i came for my birthday celebration and all of staff was so sweet and let us go an extra round! it was definitely a memorable experience, would come back again. i'd recommend extra clothes cause the paintballs can be ruthless depending on the distance.

Was not stated on the website that you need 20 players on the weekends. Only weekdays, we show up on my sons birthday "Saturday Nov 2nd, a weekend" after speaking to someone on the phone a few days prior who said 10 players were enough and that's what we had. They also tell you to fill out a reservation request, so they knew we only had 10 people and what day we wanted to come out and my contact information.They are open 10a-4p and we showed up at 12pm. We get told immediately "we need 20 players and no one else inquired for paintball today" so why weren't we notified via our contact information they made us submit? "It's our slow season" not sure how that affects us if your open and we are here to pay and play. "We a small local business so that's how it is" so why wasn't that just communicated from the start?I completely understand the reasons for not wanting to run games without a minimum of people. But why were we not told and notified?We gathered multiple family members to this location at a certain time for my sons birthday. Only to be told that we can't play after being made to fill out a reservation by and employee.Ended up calling up Brothers Paintball in Kunia and got amazing service they took us right away with only 10 people. Even let just the kids play a few rounds with just the 6 of them. Complimentary mask for my 11 year old birthday. They won us over with the service. And they are also a small local business.Truly disappointed by Kapolei extreme sports lack of clarity and communication and just got a very unpunprofessional vibe in general. My kids fell in love with paintball this day and want to return for every celebration. But we will not be a customer of this establishment.

Came for airsoft, and they didn't disappoint. There were plenty guys of all shapes and sizes, and we all had a jolly good time. The rules were very reasonable, and the staff were so friendly that they blended in with us players while still doing their job well. Everything was as chill and friendly as advertised, which deserves a fat 5 stars or more in my book.Oh, and their shop? They got the best deals on the island, braddah. Better than Amazon.
