Sherwood playgrounds offer together over 80 acres to play on divided into several woodsball and one speedball parts. The main field boasts the largest castle in the Midwest. If you are a first time player or an experienced veteran you will find all Sherwood's 10 fields very attractive. Adrex.com proudly introduces examples of Sherwood Forest Paintball playing fields.
As they put it on their website, Nottingham is the prime part of Sherwood Paintball, nr. 1 field and the “crown jewel” of the playground. This field spans 5 acres of land and has over 40 buildings on it completely built out of railroad ties. The center piece of this field is the castle construction made out of over 3000 ties. It measures 64ft x 78ft and has twelve two story towers and one three story tower. There are six stairways up to the second level and one up to the third. Honestly, it is all players´dream battleground.
This 4 acres field is a 'U' shaped valley with a peninsula jutting out in the center. On this peninsula sits Dreckmoore keep, measuring 56ft x 28ft and will soon be a two structure. During their 24 hour scenario games this is one of the command houses.
Dread Valley is one of Sherwood's old tourney fields and is about 3 acres in size. This field is all natural terrain and large log bunkers with a valley in the center.
Battledale sits in the northeast corner of Sherwood and plays on the side of 60 foot hill. With this being on the side of the hill there is a lot of up and down battles. As of now there are three structures on this field with plans for two villages at the top of the hill and one at the bottom.
The fields are open all year round during the weekends from 9am till 4pm. At Sherwood they are able to arrange battles for private groups of min. 10 people 7 days a week. They also organize special events, scenario games and birthday parties.
