Island Paintball Sports is one of the original paintball fields on Oahu.  Located on Bellows Airforce Station, they are open every Saturday and Sunday, and most holidays.  A freindly staff will be there to greet you, and help you to having a great paintball experience.  They have rental guns and supplies to equip the first time players.  You can also visit their store at 602 Kailua Road #101 in Kailua, which is now an I&I Sports.
 
 

        Offering a variety of fields, IPS has everything from Jungle Speedball, to Urban Warfare (as shown here).  This particular field featured large building on one end, and a larged netted bunker in the center of the field.  This was unique in the fact that you could see you opponent on one side of the net, and even shoot at them.  You, however, couldn't sneak around from either side though, being that it had angles on it from every direction.
 
 

        With all of the fields based in the center of paradise, IPS many fields offer paintball like no other field in the states.  The warm tropical climate, mixed with the variety of fields, makes playing paintball more enjoyable than your typical field.  IPS features more of the orginal styled fields (with shrubs, trees, and jungle) rather than concept fields.

        The MPN, I&I California, and members from Team Broken Arrow, would like to personally thank the IPS owners and staff, and fellow players of Oahu, for a remarkable time.  They were extremely courteous and helpful, and made our visit to the island, a memorable one.
