Welcome to the Official Swansea University Airsoft Society Page

What is Airsoft?

Airsoft is a combat simulation sport similar to paintball, but without the ridiculous cost or bruises.

Much like paintball, Airsoft uses replica firearms that are essentially sport-grade BB guns. The equipment offers a realistic appearance and operation similar to real firearms, while the ammunition costs significantly less than paintballs. Did we mention that it hurts a lot less than paintball?

Our Airsoft games take place at a variety of sites across South Wales. Our regular venues are around Bridgend and Ammanford, with occasional trips further afield to locations such as Gloucester and Newbury.

What do I get when I join?

The society hosts regular Airsoft games throughout the academic year. We can provide the equipment needed to participate, including Club Rifles and safety equipment, as well as transport to and from the sites we play at, subject to availability.

We also facilitate the purchase of selected Airsoft equipment at discounted rates through our supplier arrangements as an official University society. Depending on the brand and product, members can save up to ~35% compared with standard retail prices.

If you already own your own Airsoft equipment, membership still provides access to our organised games, transport arrangements, discounted equipment purchasing, and, where available, approved storage for your Airsoft guns through the society.

Can I try it first?

We host a Freshers Game at the start of every academic year: a special private session tailored specifically for newcomers.

If you cannot attend the Freshers Game, newcomers are also allowed to join their first Members Game without purchasing membership, which will count as a trial session.

Note: You must complete the required signup documents before participating. Full signup instructions are available on our Discord.

I have a car and would like to volunteer. What benefits do I get?
Members who register as volunteer drivers through the Driver Registry will receive the following signup benefits:

• £10 off society membership
• One 6,000-round bag of 0.25g BBs

In addition, active volunteer drivers will receive:

• One fully subsidised game after every 4 games in which they provide transport

Driver benefits apply only to registered volunteer drivers actively participating in society transport.

How do I join?

To join the society, you will first need to join our official Discord server.

There, you will be asked to complete two required agreement forms before you can participate in any of our Airsoft games:

• Safety & Liability Acknowledgement
• Membership Agreement

Once these documents have been reviewed and approved, you can then purchase the appropriate society membership through the Students’ Union.

Full signup instructions and document links are available on our Discord.
