    Flagswipe field closing down

    Apparently this is old news that I just found out about now. The property that flagswipe's field was on has been sold, and thus is closing down. The shop in town will remain open, however.

        I only ever played there a handful of times, I mostly do outlaw. But the fields in the woods were great to play on. Most people didn't like them though, as you had to walk a ways to get to them.

      I never played on the newest field. The old one was great. The Day of the Dead and Piranhastan were some of my all time favorites. Hundreds of players shooting CO2 on a humid day would fill the creeks and valleys with fog by mid day. I miss that smell.

      Not gunna lie, I'm looking to buy a home in that part of Ontario and proximity to a field was a secret top 5 must have for me. Looks like I'll be looking closer to Adrenaline now.

        ATBen lol, you got me there. If you are coming this way maybe check out strathroy, if you can afford it it's a nice place to live.

        Love Strathroy, but too close to my inlaws in Sarnia for my liking.

      Flagswipe was the first place I ever played, I loved that place. Granted I haven't lived near London since 2006, and in Ontario at all since 2010 but it's still a shame to see one of the original OGs of paintball in Canada go.

        Only played there once when they hosted the Canadian Carnage game 2014. Always intended to make it back was great fun. Sad to see any fields going. Fewer and fewer around now.
