Morayfield, are you ready for some exciting action and adventure? Crossfire Gelball, a new indoor gelball blaster arena, will open at the site of a former supermarket in Heritage Plaza.
Expected to fire up in May 2021, Crossfire Gelball is from paintball enthusiasts and siblings Nathan and Aaron Barroqueiro. After planning and transforming what was once the Golden Circle Warehouse in the last 18 months into a shooting arena, the brothers are now gearing up for the big launch.
The new venue is opening at the right timing, when there has been a growing number of gel blaster enthusiasts in Brisbane, Toowoomba, Sunshine Coast, and Gold Coast in the last couple of years. However, Nathan and Aaron noticed a lack of an indoor venue for this sport so they decided to pool their resources and set up their own.
As the final touches to the Crossfire Gelball are coming together, the brothers are quite eager to finally see their hard work and vision come to life. They are also enthusiastic about helping new players practice and master safety protocols, as well as educating players on the proper way to engage with gel blasters, as part of the Queensland Government’s Stop and Think campaign.
Crossfire Gelball is proudly an all-inclusive space, where families can play together. The site is wheelchair-accessible as well, as the brothers have thought of giving veterans who have taken to gel blasters as their fitness routine, a proper arena for recreational shooting.
In the future, the venue might also include a special competition for women only since Nathan and Aaron have noticed that the number of ladies hooked on this sport is also growing.
Meanwhile, after the opening of the Crossfire Gelball, a gel blaster store will also set up a shop next to the site. There will be no food and drinks in this section of the Heritage Plaza as the Barroqueiro brothers want the players to support the existing food and drinks businesses.
