Members were asked to share their views about the activity and provide considered reasons for and against a change to the
governance of safe activities in Scouting; 83% of those asked about paintballing said that it should be allowed as a Scout activity.
The feedback revealed that with appropriate risk management measures, paintballing was considered no riskier than activities already available. All Scout activities are optional and members can now make their own personal choice whether to take part or not.
