Diablo Venture Games Our History

YouTube banned this video due to the soundtrack so i moved it to this site:

This is a tribute video to our customers who played at Diablo Venture Games Paintball for the past 1/4 century. It starts off with shots of some of our many volunteer ref's and paid managers. Diablo Venture Games was always proud of those ref's who represented our paintball games to the public. Our customers most often commented both in person, phone and email on how well our staff performed and serviced their needs, ensuring the safest paintball games in the San Francisco Bay Area.

It's not surprising, giving the fact that we always attracted and accepted only those young people with the very best character traits. Most all my staff the past 1/4 century went on to college and are active and productive members our our great nation. We count 15 eagle scouts among our ref's. Many went on to military carriers, taking what they learned on our paintball fields to the battle fields. Among my very proudest are 2 west Point, 3 Annapolis and 1 Air Force academy graduates, not to mention the many enlisted who worked their way up the enlisted ranks.

Although there are some relevantly new customers represented in the video, most shots take you back the the mid eighties and continue into the early nineties. In my opinion, this was Venture Games golden years as well as paintball its self, before it went total commercial and corporate.

Diablo Venture Games paintball park opened on April 12th 1986 and was forced to closed down on January 31st 2009, due to the property owner selling the land. It was home to the original Ironmen recreational paintball team from 1986 to 1988 before it switched to a tournament team.

Opening summer 2009

I only had the privilege of playing at Venture Games a few times before they closed. It was awesome. I really hope Mike can get a new field together and if anyone has any info on any woodball field even remotely close to Clayton I would sure appreciate it. I got hooked on playing woodball then it shuts down :(
