Field Safety Rules
GOGGLES MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES ON THE FIELD!
At no time during the game will a player be allowed to break the seal of the goggle from around their eyes. If you feel you need to remove your goggles for any reason during the game you MUST exit the play area before doing so. Any player violating this rule will be immediately ejected from the field. There are no exceptions to this rule!
In addition, when entering the play area a player’s ears, nose and mouth should be covered / blocked with something preventing penetration of BBs, such as a wire mesh half mask, paintball type mask, bandanna (any color but red,) shemagh, etc.
All minors under the age of 18 years old will be required to wear full face gear that covers the mouth, ears, nose and other soft tissue.
Only goggles / eyewear that meet the following requirements will be allowed:
• The impact standard for goggles is ANSI z.87.1.
• They must fully encompass the eyes, with no gaps.
• They must be fitted with a head strap to keep them from falling off during a game ANSI rated safety glasses without a head strap will be allowed ONLY if they have sealed foam around the eyes.
• The lens frame must be sturdy enough to keep the lens in place during play.
• Wire Mesh Eye Goggles are NOT allowed
Regular reading glasses or shooting glasses that do not have sealed foam around the eyes will not be allowed. No exceptions!
• ENGAGEMENTS
NO ENGAGEMENTS AT LESS THAN 20 FT. AWAY. Players may never shoot at another player who is closer than the minimum engagement distance of 20 feet. All Guns will be chroned with .20g BB - 400 fps or less 20ft engagement distance, 401-450 fps 50 ft engagement distance, Over 450 fps must use sniper rules with a 100 ft engagement distance.
• HIT RULES
If you are struck by a BB anytime during play you must verbally yell out “HIT” and immediately and/or pull out your dead/red rag, hold it in the air and exit the playing area or follow the rules in place for that game for dead players.
Airsoft is a game of HONOR and Sportsmanship. A true sportsman will play fair and call their hits, regardless of circumstance. In situations where a player isn’t sure, they should give their opponent the benefit of the doubt and simply call themselves out. You will not have to wait long to get back into the game if you are eliminated, so please call your hits!
If a referee is forced to call a player’s hits because the player refuses to do so, it is considered a violation. Incidents of a player not calling their hits will be noted in the player’s database. This can jeopardize your privilege to play at this Field and label you as a “cheater”. Cheating will not be tolerated in any form by any player.
Most games will work on a one hit kill basis. Some games may have other rules in play but otherwise players will be considered “Dead” after one hit. In most games the player will exit the play area after getting hit.
A player is eliminated from play if a BB strikes any part of his/her body, from the top of the head to the tips of the fingers to the bottoms of the feet, including any gear worn. Gun Hits count unless game rules state otherwise.
Dead Men Don’t Talk! Eliminated players are considered dead and MUST NOT talk or communicate in any way with their teammates. This applies to verbal tips (radio included), body language or hand gestures.
Eliminated players are not allowed to give any equipment or supplies to any other player, unless game rules state otherwise
RICOCHETS off the walls or any obstacles DO NOT count as a hit.
• SAFETY KILLS
A safety kill is used to prevent injury to players at distances closer than 20 ft. A safety kill is defined as one player killing another player using only their voice.
A player may verbally yell out, “BANG BANG” if they approach an opposing player within 20 ft. who is not aware of the other player’s presence. The receiving player must honor the safety kill, pull out his or her dead rag, and exit the playing area or follow the rules in play for that game for dead players.
• NO BLIND SHOOTING
A.K.A. “Spray and Pray” - Firing blindly into an area or room is not authorized.
Always have a legitimate target in sight before firing.
• NO POINTING LASERS INTO THE FACE OF ANOTHER PLAYER - Shining a laser into the eyes of another person can be harmful and is NOT allowed.
• NO ARGUING BETWEEN PLAYERS - BOTH PARTIES WILL BE REMOVED!
• NO CLIMBING on any objects
• NO MOVING ANY OBJECTS or altering their original orientation. For example, do not move a bale of hay or barrel, to provide better cover from enemy fire.

• REFEREE’S DECISIONS ARE FINAL. Any call or decision made by a referee or Chicken’s Staff Member is final and is not debatable under any circumstances.
• LOST/FOUND EQUIPMENT that you may discover on the field should be turned in to the office or given to a staff member. Attempts will be made to return the lost equipment to its rightful owner. It is suggested for participants to label their equipment to make it easier to identify and claim.
