1. PAINTBALL
Paintball appeared at the beginning of the 1980s in the US, and
has been played in Germany since early 1990s. Today paintball
has higher growth in popularity in the world than any other
types of recreational and team sport. More than 14 million people play
it in the US, so paintball comes third among the recreational and team
mass sports, leaving snowboarding behind. The number of paintball
admirers is growing in Germany too. If in mid 1990s you one still had to
look for paintball facilities like a needle in a haystack, then in 2007 there
were already more than a hundred of them, and this growth is not stopping.
Today there are more than 20 indoor and outdoor paintball fields in
Berlin and its suburbs alone.
No distinction is often made in Germany between sporting “paintball“
and “gotcha“, although there is a substantial difference between the
two games. The name Gotcha originates from the English phrase “I’ve
got you”.
Gotcha paintball is usually played on a natural terrain or in a wooded area.
The terrain itself with its natural features serves as a playfield. A field for a
sportive paintball, on the contrary, looks like a football pitch fenced with a
net, with inflatable or wooden structures on it. In this type of paintball the
players wear multicolour clothing and coloured equipment. No camouflage
is needed here, as the combat goes much quicker due to the small size of the
playing field. The goal of the game is to capture the flag.
A gotcha paintball game is based on a particular scenario, for example, you
have to reach the flag or capture the enemy base. Of course, the players prefer
camouflage clothing in order to blend into surroundings and avoid being
sighted by the opponent. This often leads to a public opinion that this sport
is practiced by members of ultra-right military sport clubs or - which is a
complete nonsense - by nazis. The one who had a shot at paintball knows:
“It is not so!” Lawyers and doctors, officials and police officers, students
and fire fighters, craftsmen and many others go to the field and it is evi-
7

dent that no membership in military sports clubs has
anything to do with it!
In each sport the clothing is chosen on the basis of its
usefulness and practicality. “Rambos” and “lone wolfs”
have a hard time playing because teamwork is important
and necessary here too. Both gotcha and sporting
paintball are primarily team sports. For the recent nearly
25 years the admirers of both paintball types in Germany
have created different amateur and professional leagues,
such as, for example, the German Paintball League,
which unites more than 300 teams competing with each
other for championship. Thus gotcha paintball is, to put it
in crude terms, a modern version of cops and robbers. In
Germany gotcha paintball is also called Woodland.
Attractiveness of paintball
Paintball is a unique combination of sport, entertainment
and action. Two things make paintball attractive: first,
almost endless number of variations and, second, dynamism
of the game. Because all the players simultaneously
move on the field, many line-ups emerge that rapidly replace
one another. For example, a situation, when at the beginning
of the battle one team gains a clear advantage over the
other due to successful placement of the players, can rapidly
change to the opposite if, for example, one of the opponents
unexpectedly manages to reach a strategically important
shelter.
It is only in a team that the players can play in full force and
win. At the same time each of them has to keep an eye on the
whereabouts of the enemy and of the other team members
from his shelter and implement the joint tactical plan, sending
voice and sign signals.
8

Course of the game
The goal of the game is to capture the flag that is usually
located at the opponent‘s base and to deliver it to one‘s
own base. Two teams with three, five or seven members
in each enter the combat in a playfield fenced with a
net. In order to limit the freedom of movement of the
opponent and obstruct his actions, each player is armed
with a marker – a paintball gun which shoots balls with
paint. The field has multiple obstacles of different shape
that serve as shelters for the players and a cover from
the shots. Under their cover the players can also move
along the field unseen by the opponents. The teams begin
their movement simultaneously from the opposite
ends of the field running from the base to the nearest
shelters.
Each player whose clothing or equipment has been
marked with a ball, leaves the game immediately.
The hit counts if the ball leaves a visible stain of
paint after it explodes. If one of the players succeeds
in bringing the enemy flag to his base and remain
“untouched”, it means that his team has won and the
game has ended. The usual duration of the game is
5-10 minutes.
Limitations
Everyone can play paintball. The only condition
in Germany (unlike other European countries) is
reaching the age of 18. There is no division by age
or gender. All you need is the equipment which you
can hire at every field, good reflexes and understanding
of the partner, and, above all, the team spirit.
In the end, only teams win in paintball.
9

Playfields
Playing paintball is forbidden in public places. But currently there are
countless numbers of playfields and halls in Germany. There are strict
requirements to their equipping and thus they are fully safe for the players.
The easiest way to find out where the closest paintball facility is located is
on the websites www.pbhub.de/atlas/ and www.paintball-piloten.de. Besides,
all the addresses of the open fields and halls can usually be found in the
centre of „Gotcha!“ magazine.
Marker
A marker is a pneumatic gun loaded with paintballs. Its name comes from
the English word „to mark“ as this weapon allows you to virtually leave a
mark on your opponent.
10
Compressed air or carbon dioxide
is used as the working gas,
although the latter is less recommended
for environmental reasons.
In Germany paintball guns
or markers fall under the provisions
of the Law on Weapon Storage,
no license is needed for their
purchase and storing, so individuals
aged 18 or higher can buy markers
in licensed shops. Every model
sold in Germany must be certified by
the Federal Institute of Physics and
Metrology (Physikalisch-Technische
Bundesanstalt – PTB) and have the
so-called “F-brand” (letter F inscribed
in a pentagon), a stamp of the seller
and of the calibre on it. If the marker
lacks those brands because it
was privately brought in from
abroad, its use in Germany is

illegal. In Germany the muzzle energy of a weapon that doesn’t require a
license to be purchased or stored must not exceed 7.5 joules, which is equivalent
to the discharge speed of about 65 m/s.
Marker handling is regulated with special norms. For example, it is forbidden
to transport the markers that are “ready for firing” outside the allowed
places (playfields). You can find more detailed information in the current
version of the German Law on Weapon Storage.
Paintballs
The most important element of
the equipment besides the mask
and the marker are, of course, the
paintballs. Such a ball consists of
the shell and the filler. The shell
is made of gelatine and the filler
is the mixture of food colourant,
potato starch, vegetable oil and
water. The detailed contents are
a big secret of any manufacturer.
Paintballs are completely environmentally
safe and fully degradable
in nature. There is no trace of them
left in two weeks under normal
weather conditions.
As paintballs are made of natural
materials, so they are characterised
by high sensitivity. For their storage it is necessary to maintain the constant
room temperature from 18 to 22 degrees Celsius. Paintballs must not be left
under the sun or, the more so, be kept in a fridge or a freezer. It is necessary
to protect them from humidity and significant temperature swings. Calibre
68 is considered to be ideal for paintballs, but there exist deviations from
67th to 69th, as well as differences in the mass of a ball depending on its
contents and manufacturing technology.
11

Shelters
All kinds of objects can serve as shelters, for example, car tires, trays, trees,
furniture, walls or bags with sand put on one another. However during
tournaments well proven inflatable shelters (SupAir), i.e. plastic bunkers of
different colours and shapes (a cone, a cylinder, a prism, etc.) filled with air,
are mostly used. They usually have a heavy bottom part and are fixed on the
field with hooks or small sandbags.
Injuries in paintball
Let’s put it this way: crossing the road is a more dangerous job! The research
done in the US has shown that the injury probability in paintball is 0.3
per 1000 people a year, which allows considering it one of the safest sports
in the world. As a comparison: 33 people per thousand get injured annually
when crossing the street.
Special attention is given to safety in paintball. The players are allowed to go
to the field only if they wear a special paintball mask and the necessary protective
clothing. The mask is
mainly aimed at protecting
the eyes and other sensitive
areas of the face. At first
there can be a burning sensation
after a hit but there
will be no real pain. In the
worst possible case there
can sometimes be a bruise.
The referees see that the
rules of the game and the
safety requirements are
observed. Besides, the
playfield is fenced with a
net, so that no paintball
would ever go outside.

2. BUSINESS
What is webcasting?
Live stream webcasting is a system of transmitting audio and video materials
made in the style of radio and TV programmes via the Internet. There
exist such webcasting types as Video On-Demand and Live WebCast and
it should be noted that due to a broad range of opportunities to organise
interaction with the audience (for example, as a video conference) Live
WebCast has an obvious advantage over traditional radio and TV.
Profitability of webcasting as compared with the traditional
TV broadcasting is based on significantly lower production
costs, innovative technologies, clear target
group orientation of the transmitted content
and, thus, the content quality assurance. In
this case you can be sure that the attracted
audience, although it will not be as broad,
will be more attentive than the audience of
the traditional radio and TV!
Corporate structure
The Paintball-TV company was founded by
Thomas Liebner (born in 1978, entrepreneur,
Berlin) in Berlin on 11th June 2011 as an independent
project. The business activity of
the company began on 30th June 2011. The
Paintball-TV.net company originally developed
and implemented live webcasts
of DPL (German Paintball League) East
from Greater Berlin tournaments,
which took place in the Paintball
Rockstar Arena in Garzau. Since
that time, we have continued to
evolve into an independent service
13

provider for paintball webcasts further within the
paintball scene. In 2016 there was live webcasting
two match days of the DPL East Division of the
District League (Bezirksliga), DPL National League
(Landesliga), one match day of DPL Regional League
and two match days of the North Division of
the DPL 3rd State League (Bundesliga) were broadcast
live via webcast. As the first webcast team,
also on an international level, we were first to
broadcast a Woodland BigGame live via webcast in 2015. We
thereby set a new standard in terms of the medial processing of paintball!
Additionally, we have had the opportunity to broadcast selected free events.
The www.Paintball-TV.net also has a YouTube channel where it publishes
several podcasts for each match day, which are used for rewatching, analysis
or just to fill in time between webcasts. Paintball-TV.net is also present on
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Google+.
The company is headed by Thomas Liebner, CEO. The staff of the company
will be increased since 1st January 2017 in order to meet the planned
expansion objectives. The company owns offices, production facilities and
warehouses in Berlin. The accounting records are kept by the CEO with the
help of a modern IT application and supervised by two employees.
Goals and Mission
Our mission is to support the development of sporting paintball!
We intend to use our activities (in marketing, public relations and dayto-day
cooperation with the paintball community) to promote sporting
paintball as a sport that deserves public recognition and to strengthen its
positions. For this purpose, in 2017 we will continue to develop the Paintball-TV.net
project in order to provide the highest standards of broadcasting
quality via one of the latest systems – Live Webcasting. Were envisaged
the concept Paintball-TV.net in 2017 across Europe, both in tournament, as
well as to establish in the Woodland area. Since 2015 there will appear an
14

opportunity to organize mobile webcasting of paintball tournaments taking
place on all the territory of Germany, in the neighbouring European states
and, in the long term, all over the world.
For that purpose, a new concept of HD broadcasting will be implemented
in 2015, which will allow us to offer a service of organizing mobile HD
webcasting of paintball competitions. This modernisation of the infrastructure
will help us to conform to the international standards in professional
broadcasting technologies, increase our customer orientation and
thus become even more attractive for our chosen target audience, which
will make us unique and, therefore, competitive on the global market. In
addition to that, we offer appropriate individual sponsorship strategies
that allow us to regulate the reach for our sponsors, providing maximum
attention to them.
Our own self-developed concept of the Paintball-TV.net streaming channel
is implemented by a permanent freelance team. The concept is justified
due to the active promotion of paintball topics by the players in the
public space and on the whole due to the constant increase in the number of
admirers of this sport in Germany and its transformation into a mass one.
The company needs additional
capital for further growth and better
foothold in the market. That’s
why the founders keep looking for
new active sponsors.
The company proceeds from the
basic assumption that in 2017 it
will achieve a 100% quantitative
increase of the market share and a
50% quality increase as compared
with the current market situation.

4. MARKET
Market review, the company’s
market position, market assessment
Broadcasting industry in Germany is very poorly developed
as compared with the neighbouring states and the US. There
are almost no broadcasts or regular TV programmes with
broad range of information about paintball on public TV
channels.
Furthermore, there is no other company in Germany, which
independently focuses on live paintball webcasts, let alone
the subject of live paintball via webcasts! According to a
target group-specific survey conducted by Tristan Dransmann,
deputy editor of the magazine OFFFIELD and published
in that magazine on 3 October 2015, we currently hold a
44.9% share of the German market! (OFFFIELD - magazine
for paintball culture, issue 1/2015, page 64)
19

At the moment such advantageous
market position guarantees the uniqueness
of live webcasts as an advertising
medium and, therefore, gives you an
innovative competitive advantage over
traditional advertising measures.
Constant increase in the number of
regular viewers is confirmed by different
platforms, in particular, Facebook and
YouTube (see the data in section 5) and
shows that the selected target audience
demonstrates a stable growing interest
to products offered by us. We are expecting
up to 2500 visitors on the days of the
events.
Continuous creation and updating during
the season of the constantly changing
and the most innovative “eye catchers”
supplementary to our product guarantees
a stable increase in the number of our
platforms’ users. The number of visitors
of our online platforms is constantly
growing, which is confirmed by statistics.
High audience growth rates allow us to
provide a broad presence of the marketed
brand. A detailed, market analysis of the
financial years 2012 to 2016 can be found on
the following pages. The analysis is based
on our three main platforms and shows the
positive development of the webcast format
as an advertising medium. Our concept
also contains parallel, on-going marketing
channels. We‘d be happy to talk to you about
them personally!
