The Radford family ran a mixed farming operation for many years. To maximize the use of their land and buildings, they made the decision to diversify. Many options and possibilities were contemplated and discussed. Whatever the endeavor, it would have to be unique, novel ... cater to a niche market. Abandoning their conservative background, they stuck their necks way out, fully aware they could have their heads chopped off, and embarked on (what their neighbours referred to as) an outlandish idea, a paintball facility. This bold undertaking marked the birth of Weekend Warriors Paintball.

Starting out rather small and conservatively, a couple of buildings and a couple of acres of woodland were converted and equipped to attract the paintballer. As their clientele base and the popularity of paintballing grew, additional facilities and land were incorporated into the paintball adventure. As more and more facilities were transformed to a paintball environment, public awareness of Weekend Warriors Paintball exploded attracting paintball enthusiasts from all over the province and beyond.

Today, Weekend Warriors Paintball encompasses over 40 buildings (some multi level, some multi roomed), a heated 20,000+ sq. ft. building (includes 15,000 sq. ft. indoor arena, with a new dust proof surface) complete with changing facilities, restrooms, showers, pro shop and staging centre, 35 acres of wooded and enhanced outdoor playing fields and Speedball fields. What started out as (according to neighbours) an outlandish idea now represents the largest indoor paintball facility in Alberta.
