Ireland's oldest airsoft field and an outdoor adventure centre on one woodland site, thirty minutes from Belfast.

WhyYour two brands as two worlds on one site. The page opens in the world the address asks for, so predator-combat.com can point at the dark side and activate-outdoor-adventure.com at the bright one. Press the Outdoor adventure door and the page turns to daylight: Activate's roundel takes the header, its red and gold take the buttons, rounded family type replaces the military capitals, a scalloped gold edge replaces the hazard tape, the activities take the menu, the doors become Climb, Paddle and a door back to Predator, and the stage behind the type becomes your ridge, your climber and your kayaks with no rain. Press that third door and it is Predator's woods again: your badge as the watermark, the hi-vis orange of your marshal vests, the storm over your own field. Every picture is your own and says where it came from.
Ireland's best and oldest airsoft field. More than twenty years. Thirty minutes from Belfast.
Climb, paddle, shoot a bow, find your way. County Down, outdoors.

WhyThese three slabs are your booking page and your Nerf Wars page, laid out so the three doors sit side by side; the activity slab carries the prices you set on the call of 16 October. Your site puts the prices two clicks away from the game pages and the game pages two clicks away from the phone number. Here the price and the button are on the same card.

WhyThis band reads the next event off your calendar rather than a sentence typed once, so its date, its times and its price are the ones a player will actually turn up to. Add an event in the console and it takes the band over by itself. The poster beside it is All Out War until you send the Halloween artwork. The poster in the frame is your All Out War one, because your Halloween poster has not come across yet. Send it and it takes this slot.
Our poster, All Out WarSite rules
328 fps, everything
As per the laws in Northern Ireland, every gun is 328 fps on a 0.2 gram BB, whatever you are shooting: rifle, DMR or sniper. Chrono runs from 09:30 and every gun goes over it.
- 328 fpsOn a 0.2 gram BB, as the law requires here
- Bio BBsAsked for, and sold on site
- 9mm blanksMaximum on site, we are surrounded by farmland
WhyYou told us on 16 October that the 328 limit is the law in Northern Ireland rather than a rule of yours, and that players here assume it is a site preference because England differs. Saying "as per the laws in Northern Ireland" settles it before anyone argues at the chrono, and a player checking whether their gun is legal should not have to open the FAQ to find out.
The field
More than twenty years

WhyYour running order, off your homepage, as a strip over your own photograph instead of a list in the sidebar. Every time on it is yours; the calendar file every booking hands out carries the same seven times.
How booking works
Four taps and you are on the list.
Booking a place
Pick the day. Walk-on or rental. Full day or half. Pay.
- Saturday and Sunday are our game days, and they are on the calendar below
- A full day runs 09:30 to 16:30; a half day is a morning, an afternoon or an evening
- Walk-on is the same price whichever you pick, and an evening is cheaper
- Pay by card and the place is yours, with a calendar invite on your confirmation
- One person can sign the declaration for everybody, or share the link so they sign their own
Booking for a group
Twelve on rental? Ten per cent comes off.
- Any group size is welcome on a Saturday or Sunday
- Ten per cent off rental bookings of twelve or more. Walk-ons are the same price in any number
- We can open other dates for ten players or more, on a full day
- An evening on a game day takes any number; on any other date it needs ten
- Nerf Wars is ninety minutes for ten or more, and runs in its own part of the site
Airsoft game days
Half day or full day,
your own kit or the rental package
Walk on with your own kit, or take the rental package: electric Gun 1:1 replica rifle, 3000rds Ammunition each, and full face protection. Every Saturday and Sunday.
| Ticket | Half day | Full day |
|---|---|---|
| Walk-onYour own kit | £25 |
£25 |
| Rental packageRifle, 3,000 rounds, full face | £35 |
£45 |
Prices as published on our booking page. A half day is a morning or an afternoon. An evening is £25 walk-on or £35 rental; boot hire is £15.
WhyEvery price here is off your booking page, and every one of them is printed from the same place, so a price you change in the console changes on this page too and the two can never drift apart. The half day comes first because you told us it is the popular one. No member column: phase one keeps your prices exactly as they are.
How it works
Half day or full day,
walk-on or rental.
Walk-on is £25 whether you play a full day or a half day, and £25 for an evening. The rental package is £45 for a full day and £35 for a morning, afternoon or evening.
The game day board
The next Saturdays
and Sundays
Every Saturday and Sunday: gates 09:00, brief 10:15, off the field at 16:30. Book a place and it is held with your name on it.
Next: next game day Game day · ·
WhyEvery Saturday and Sunday, as you told us on 13 October; the running order is off your homepage. Neither is on your site as a calendar today, so this board is the first place a search engine or an assistant can lift your dates as a list.
What’s on
Dates for the diary
WhyYour adventure dates live here, and they come from the same place as your airsoft ones: you add a date in the console, pick Activate, and it lands on this band, on the What’s on page and in the booking picker. Nothing is listed today, so the band says so rather than inventing one.
Outdoor activities
Climb, paddle,
shoot a bow, find your way
Rock climbing, hill and mountain walking, abseiling, archery, canoeing, kayaking, orienteering and bushcraft, for individuals, families, schools and groups.
From our team building page
Ropes, rock and the long way down. From £30 a person for a half day, £40 for a full day.
From our activities page
On the water, in a group. From £30 a person for a half day, £40 for a full day.
From our team building page
Wilderness and survival skills. From £30 a person for a half day, £40 for a full day.
WhyYour activities list off your Activate site, with your own pictures from the same pages. Activate publishes no prices, so every price in this world is sample and marked; the day you send the list it drops in.
Team building
A day in the woods
your team talks about
Bush craft, canoeing, climbing, abseiling, focused objective-based programmes, summer programmes, camping and more: for companies, hen and stag parties, family gatherings and youth and community groups.
A day for a group
From £60 a head
Pick the activities, the date and the headcount. We talk the day through with you first, then hold the date with a thirty per cent deposit.
£Your team building page lists what a day holds and asks for a call. The three figures are the ones you confirmed on 16 October: £60 a head, twelve to forty people, a thirty per cent deposit. You said a team day is not quoted on screen, so the button asks us to ring you and the quote happens on the phone.
From our Phoenix page
For young people
The Phoenix Program
Health and well-being, responsibility through cooperative activities, new skills in the outdoors, leadership, and a hand with the transition to adulthood.
WhyYour own picture from the Phoenix Program page, and the programme in your words. No price is published, so none is shown. The kids panel that sat beside it has gone: it repeated the activities list, and you asked for the Kids tab to go with it.
Where we are
Off the road from Ballynahinch,
thirty minutes from Belfast
Drag the map to move it, pinch or scroll to zoom, and press Directions to open it on your phone.
WhyA real map, centred on your postcode, that a visitor can drag and zoom without leaving the page, and a Directions button that opens it on their phone. Your site prints the postcode and "Airsoft Belfast" rather than a lane, so the map is centred on the postcode: send us the exact gate and we will drop the pin on it.

Calendar
Airsoft game days
Every Saturday and Sunday, gates 09:00 to endex 16:30. Your own kit, or the rental package. Ages 12 and over.
£Every date is its own page and its own Event record in the structured data, with a price. That is what puts one of your Sundays into Google's event results and into an assistant's answer to "airsoft near Belfast this weekend". The start times are sample until you give us the clock.

£25 for the year. Applied to this booking straight away.
£Offering the membership at the moment it saves money, to someone with their card out, is the highest-converting place on the site. The sum is shown, not explained. The session follows the day you pick: a Sunday is seven hours, a Wednesday four.
Anything else before the day?
Boot hire, pre-booked so the pair is set out at sign-in.

Signed disclaimers are stored against your account and reused for twelve months. No clipboard at sign-in.

£The live site takes payment direct to your own Stripe account. Your own checkout means no platform commission, the customer list is yours, and the money is in your account before the day instead of taken at the desk.

How many game days a year?
WhyPhase one keeps your prices and your membership exactly as they are: this screen is your booking page and your store page, laid out so a first-timer sees walk-on, rental and membership side by side. A member price, a block of game days and membership sold online are phase two, by your choice. Your homepage also says £5 off the first three bookings and play five get the sixth free; you told us on 13 October there is no game-fee discount at the moment, so those lines are off until you settle them.
Sessions
Book a session:
outdoor activities, Nerf Wars or airsoft
Groups, parties and corporate bookings. Sessions run to fixed time slots and are booked ahead. Price your group on screen and pay for it there, rather than waiting on a phone call.
WhyYour site says suitable for groups, parties and corporate bookings, and to call or email to check availability. This is what "call and book" becomes: a price on screen, at your published per-head rates, and a slot held with a deposit. The background image is illustrative, generated.
Instant quote
What would your group cost?
Paid in full today, by card: £480
£Group work is the biggest thing you sell, and it is lost to whoever answers the phone first. The per-head prices in the dropdown are yours; the deposit share, the slot times and the add-on are sample. A quote on screen at 11pm on a Tuesday, with a deposit button next to it, converts the organiser while they are still in the group chat.
What’s on
Game days and events
Every date we have open, with what it is and what it costs. Book a place and it is held with your name on it.
WhyOne page that lists every date, so a search engine or an assistant can read your diary and a player can see the next one without hunting. It is the same list the booking picker uses, so a date cannot be on one and missing from the other. Add a date in the console and it is here, on the home page and bookable, without ringing anyone.
With Activate
Outdoor activities
Rock climbing, hill and mountain walking, abseiling, archery, canoeing, kayaking, orienteering and bushcraft, for groups of eight or more. Every activity is the same price, and every session is booked ahead.

Canoeing, orienteering and archery have no picture of yours yet, so they sit as plain tiles rather than borrowing someone else's photograph. Send three and they drop in.

Ask us to ring you
If the dates or the group do not fit what is on the page, leave your number and we will ring you. Or call 028 9756 5651, or email info@activate-outdoor-adventure.com.
Not an activity session
Adventure boot camps
Our boot camps run as a programme rather than a session, so they are quoted on their own.
Not an activity session
Corporate training
Corporate days are built around what the company asks for, so we price them with you.
WhyThese two are off the activity list because they are not activity sessions: boot camps are the Phoenix Program and a corporate day is quoted with the company. Both sit under the booking, so the page leads with the thing eight people can book today.
Book an activity day
Pick the day, then pick what you want to do
WhyEight is the minimum you set on 16 October, because an instructor costs you £180 for a day and four people at £40 does not cover it. The site says so before anyone fills in a form, rather than after you have read the booking.
Choose your activities
Everything is provided: ropes, boats, bows and the rest. Climbing, abseiling, hill walking and canoeing take a whole session, because we travel to them.

Booking reference
WhyThe same shape as the airsoft booking, in your other brand's words: attendees rather than players, your activities rather than kit hire, and a deposit rather than the full price, because you told us a group pays the balance when they arrive. Nothing is held: the deposit is taken when they book.
Team building
Team building days
Bush craft, canoeing, climbing, abseiling, focused objective-based programmes, summer programmes, camping and more. For corporate team training, team bonding, hen and stag parties, family gatherings and youth and community groups.

Your desk. Not a public page.
Predator Combat
This is what you see on a Sunday morning and on a Tuesday night once the site takes the money. Every number on it is sample: it shows the shape of the thing, not your real figures.
WhyThe public site is half the proposal. The other half is this: the manifest before you open the doors, the hire rifles counted the night before, the group deposits held, the membership renewals sent in one go, and the money landing in your bank without anyone taking a card at the desk.
Manifest
Next walk-on day
Everyone who has booked and paid, before you open the doors. Seven hours on a Sunday; the clock times are sample until you set them.
Sign-in
At the desk
Each player shows the pass on the phone. Scan it and the row ticks. A player without a disclaimer signs on the tablet first; an under-18 needs the parent beside them.
Hire rifles to issue
Pre-booked, so you knew last night
Twelve rental packages booked and paid with the ticket. Tick each one as it goes out with its 1,000 BBs and mask.
Pre-orders to bag
Paid for already, ready at sign-in
12 × £5, sample price, name on the bag
4 × £9, sample item
3 × £12, sample item
Pre-orders today: £132. None of it taken at the desk.
Disclaimers outstanding
6 to sign at the desk
Takings so far, this Sunday
£0
Booked and paid by card before the doors open. Walk-ups on the day come on top.
Same Sunday last year
£690
27 players, taken at the desk. No pre-orders, no hire booked ahead, no way to know who was coming.
Both figures are sample. Yours replace them the first Sunday it runs.
Bookings
The next four dates
The latest bookings on each of the next four walk-on dates, with the money against them. Refund or move a booking from here; the player gets the email, you do not write it.
A refund goes back to the card it came from. A move keeps the money and changes the date; if the new date costs a different amount, the difference is charged or refunded and the line here says so.
Members
Your £40 year
Everyone who has paid the £25. Each membership runs twelve months from the day it was bought, so renewals go out one at a time, the month before, without you touching it.
The list
Members, most recent first
Renewal run
One email, one pay link, each member
Goes out the month before each membership runs out, with a card link for the next year. Anyone who pays stays a member without you touching it. Anyone who does not gets one nudge and then drops to non-member fares.
Why they join
The £25 pays back on the fifth Sunday
Full day £25 against £25, half day £25 against £25, plus the consumables discount and the UKARA route. The site now says that at the moment somebody is paying, which is where your 86 came from in this sample.
Money
This month, by line
What the site has taken, line by line, and when it reaches your bank. Every figure on this panel is sample; your Stripe account replaces them the day it goes live.
Takings by line, this month so far
Vouchers are in the proposal but switched off, so the line reads nil until you say yes.
Card against the desk
Today, all of it is booked by phone and paid on the day
Nothing stops you taking a walk-up at the desk. The point is that the group deposits, the £25 memberships and the pre-orders arrive before anyone has parked.
Stripe payouts
Sunday's takings, in your bank the same week
Stripe pays out on a rolling schedule you set once. The days shown are sample. Card fees are shown as a sample line, not a quote.
Settings
Your fares and your rules, in one place

Session slots
Fixed time slots, you tell us
Once filled in, these are the slots the session picker sells. Until then the site says nothing about them, because you do not.
Age and safety
The ages are your published rules and the site enforces them at the checkout: an under-18 cannot finish an airsoft booking without a parent's disclaimer.
