While there is no specific age requirement in Queensland for playing with gel blasters, the club policy states that kids must be over 10 years old to participate. Children aged 10-13 must be supervised by an adult at all times while onsite. On the other hand, children aged 13-18 can play without supervision, as all games are refereed.

Players are advised to come prepared with their own blaster and hydrated gels. Wearing a long sleeve shirt, long pants, and covered shoes is mandatory, as is wearing a hat.
