The Valkyries - Female Paintball Team

Who are The Valkyries?

We are an all-women's paintball team.  We play in as many games as we possibly can.

Where is the team located?

The majority of he Valkyrie members are located in the southern U.S.  Our home field is in Nashville, TN.  

What if I've never played before?

You couldn't have picked a better time or place to start!  Our team is a mix of experienced paintballers who welcome the opportunity to teach those interested and broaden the playing field to include more women.  The age-range for this team is 15 years of age and up.  Our only requirement is that you have a great attitude and are willing to try. 

I am an experienced player.  Will I be treated like a beginner?

Absolutely not!  We encourage all experienced players to step-up and take a leadership role.  Obviously your missions will differ and be more complex in nature than that of your less-experienced teammates.  

Does getting hit with a paintball hurt?

Most hits only sting a bit and that the excitement of the game really takes away from the pain.  Most welts you may have seen are caused by close range hits or hits on bare skin.  With protective clothing almost all hits will be painless.  Yes, there may be bruises or welts but it's a small price to pay for the amount of fun you'll have!

How expensive is it?

Like many recreational activities, the exact amount you spend is up to you.  There are those that really involve themselves thoroughly, spending hundreds if not thousands of dollars each year.  However, the vast majority of us play on a budget and keep the costs as low as possible.  

Check the D-day website for registration and paint cost.  These are the only two requirements of the D-Day Adventure Park.  

What do I wear?

With weather in the typical summer temperatures, comfortable, casual clothing is all you need.  During game play on the field, you'll wear a mask, pants and a long sleeved shirt in addition to other possible outerwear.  Want to wear camouflage? Our camouflage is the multi cam pattern. 

Why don't more women play paintball?

What do people think of female paintball players?

As a male paintball player, I'd like my girlfriend to play.  Any tips?
