Our Mission

Northern Quarter is the North Wests Premier Sup'Air Paintball training site, located on Manchesters outskirts.
But what do we do here? Play paintball of course!
Paintball is a game of skill, tactics and teamwork.
Many people will recognise paintball as a squad/military type game played in woodlands.
Sup'Air is a similar idea, but played on a specific sized pitch, with set numbers of inflatable, differnt shaped barricades.

The idea of sup'air paintball is to eliminate the opposition and game control of a central flag, which when depositied at the oppositions start gate denotes the end of the match and a victory for the team hanging the flag.

Where sup'air 'ball differs from woodsball is mainly in the pacing.
Everything is fast - shooting, running, sliding.
Games usually last only a couple of minutes.

What we at NQ aim to do is provide players interested in Sup'air at all levels a place to train (and compete!)
We run various days on saturdays and sundays and these are :

1 - Newbie Days - where we lend out gear, show you how to use it, and teach the skills needed to make the transition from woods to sup'air.

2 - Newbie Tournaments - where you put into practice your skills against other novice teams; a gentle intorduciton to the adrenaline of tournament days.

3 - Open Training -where anyone and everyone comes down, takes advantage of our 5 and 7 man fields, and generally has a good day training at whatever level they wish.

4 - Set Scrimmages - are you in a team looking to get some hardcore training in? Well, get some others like you and book the NQ for a scrimmage day or weekend. Perfect for the run up to major league events. Train against the type of teams you're going to be facing come event day. Learn skills from each other. Mow each others faces off

5 - Pro Schools/Clinics - this is where we invite some of the worlds biggest names to show you how the pros play. Past courses have included Team XSV and Team Dynasty
