Default Re: Paintball 101: Do I need to wear a cup?

Going for the first time tomorrow...do I need to wear a cup? Anything else I should know?

Strange, but I just got back from a picnic where my friend told a paintball story. He got nailed in the crotch but was wearing a cup so he didn't feel anything.

I think he was doing one of those 1-on-1 duels (take ten steps, turn and shoot) so he was out in the open. I think in normal play, one doesn't expose their family jewels to an open line of fire.

But then again, if people are playing with those fully-automatic weapons, you might want to play it safe and wear a cup.
