FAQs - All FAQs
What is the minimum age to play at Laser Squad?
The minimum age is 6-7 yrs old. We find this age is the minimum due to the 3kg weight of the tagger/gun.
Can I book one week before the party?
We recommend that you book the party as soon possible. A monthbefore the party is ideal to secure a date and time. The best idea is to contact us to find out if there is time available on your preferred date. Four days notice is the minimum for a mobile party booking.
Are there any clothing requirements?
The only clothing requirement is that covered shoes must be worn at all times. We reserve the right to refuse players with open footwear.
What obstacles are required for the games?
Trees, houses, and structures are the best cover. Obviously you don't need a forest or heavily wooded area to provide enough cover for a great game. Most backyards are suitable if the yard is big enough and if there is enough cover/obstacles for people to hide behind. If you are uncertain about the cover or size of the venue you are considering then we would be happy to determine the suitability over the phone. We can also use council parks for group bookings.
Where can we play?
You can play at our conveniently located Darra Battlefield or we can come to you. Local parks are also a great area to user if you have a small backyard.
Does Laser Squad have insurance cover?
Laser Squad has $10M public liability insurance cover.
Do sessions go ahead rain, hail or shine?
Sessions will go ahead rain or shine. If there is a high chance of a thunderstorm then the session will be canceled for your safety. We will still allow a session to go ahead if it is just raining. Call us before your session if you are uncertain. For private bookings the booking party must call us atleast 2hrs before the booking to cancel your booking. The weather forecasters are often wrong and we simply do not cancel a booking based on a weather forecast.
Do I need to bring my own equipment?
You need to bring yourself, enclosed shoes/boots, long pants (if not wearing supplied coveralls), and money to pay for your session. Remember to bring water!
What do I do when I lose all my health?
Raise your gun up in the air so that other players know that you are out of the game. Proceed back to the respawn base or whatever place the Field Staff have declared as the place to go.
Does it hurt when I get hit?
No. A harmless IR beam is fired from the gun and does not cause any harm. This IR beam works similar to the emitter in a TV remote control. When you get hit the gun will make an ouch sound. No projectiles are used, no pain is experienced by the player when they are shot at.
How do I know I have been hit?
When you get hit or "tagged" by another player your gun will make an ouch sound and there will be a slight pause before you can return fire. When you loose all your hit points your gun will make a sound similar to "Medic, medic, man down, man down" symbolising your gun dying.
What are the benefits of playing Laser Skirmish?
Benefits include gettin fit, developing leadership skills, improving teamwork, developing communication skills, having fun, and of course the social aspect.
