    Arena Paintball, South America
  Rua: Brás Cuba, nº 92 - Maria Paula - São Gonçcalo, RJ
          
Uma idéia que costuma ser erroneamente pré-concebida é a de que o paintball é um esporte violento e perigoso. Este é um julgamento próprio de quem não conhece o esporte. Muitas pesquisas já foram realizadas no mundo sobre a taxa de acidentes nos esportes e o paintball é considerado um dos mais seguros, com uma taxa insignificante de acidentes, que não chega nem perto de outros esportes como futebol, ciclismo, artes marciais, etc. Quanto à violência, no paintball o contato físico é contra as regras, o que já elimina muitos problemas. http://www.arenapaintball.com.br/
