Reviews

Cousins Paintball's Long Island location has gotten mostly positive reviews from paint-splattered ballers at PBReview.com:

• Cousins at Coram NY is my favorite [paintball venue] so far...Most fields at Cousins are big enough so you don‘t get taken out by 10 paintballs at the same time right away when referee blows his whistle to start a game and that's a plus IMO... – Xmarkerman
• What I was most impressed with was the number of refs and how engaged they were during the games. It appeared that they were right on the spot of any activity and ready to call out hits. Very little wiping which I can't stand. – Dr. K
