Field Safety Rules & FPS Limits

Every W.S.A.P operation is run to the published rules below: eye and face protection, hit calling, spawn and medic procedure, and the EU replica energy classes with their minimum engagement distances. The interactive joule and FPS calculator is on this page in the full version of the site.

Eye & Face Protection Protocols

Zero Compromise: Your Vision Comes First

Mandatory Full-Seal Eye Protection (ANSI Z87.1+ / EN166B) (mandatory)
Shooting glasses must form a complete cover around your eyes. Regular sunglasses or open work glasses are strictly forbidden.
Never Remove Eye Protection in Game Zones (mandatory)
Under NO circumstances may safety goggles be lifted or wiped in live combat areas. If your lenses fog, call "BLIND MAN" or have a marshal escort you to the safety zone.
Lower Face Mesh & Dental Protection
Hard steel mesh lower masks or reinforced balaclavas are strongly recommended for adults and MANDATORY for players under 18 to prevent dental fractures.

Hit Calling, Ricochets & Fair Play Creed

Airsoft is a Game of Uncompromising Honor

Every Direct Hit Counts (mandatory)
A hit on your boots, tactical helmet, vest, or backpack or anywhere else on your body counts as a complete hit! Shout "HIT!", raise your hand or replica immediately, and pull out your high-vis or red Dead Rag. A hit on your replica then your rifle is unusable shoot gun hit take your secondary and keep on playing with that.
When in Doubt, Call Yourself Out
If you feel or hear a pellet impact and are uncertain whether it was a ricochet or direct hit, honor dictates you call "HIT" and respawn. Fair play earns respect.
Dead Men Tell No Tales (Radio Silence) (mandatory)
Eliminated or wounded players cannot speak, point, or transmit enemy coordinates over walkie-talkies or in person until they have completed respawn.
Dead Rags & Dead Lights (Night Skirms)
Day skirms require a bright red Dead Rag (minimum 20x20cm) or high vis vest. Night ops require an active red light preferably a blinking light.

Spawn Waves & Medic Revival Systems

Tactical Cohesion and Field Respawn Discipline

The 3-Minute Bleed-Out Clock
When hit, drop to one knee or sit down with your dead rag. You may call "MEDIC!" but cannot move. If no teammate revives you within 3 minutes, you must return to base spawn.
Buddy Bandage Application
Any active teammate can apply an elastic medical tourniquet or velcro armband to your arm. The medic must hold the player with both hands for 30 continuous seconds.
Spawn Camping Restrictions
Shooting into or camping within 30 meters of designated respawn zones is strictly forbidden and subject to instant yellow card penalties.

Code of Conduct & Belgian Airsoft Regulations

Official Guidelines Under Belgian Weapon Legislation (Wet op de Wapens)

Zero Tolerance for Aggression or Toxic Behavior (mandatory)
Physical confrontations, verbal abuse, or deliberately overshooting players on the ground will result in an immediate permanent ban from W.S.A.P Events and partner fields across Belgium.
Public Transport & Gun Case Regulations (mandatory)
In Belgium, airsoft replicas must always be transported out of public sight in a locked gun bag or hard case, separated from BBs and batteries. Never expose replicas in public streets.
Safezone Entry: Magazine Off, HPA Hose Off, Chamber Clear, Safety On (mandatory)
Making a replica safe is a sequence, not a gesture, and all of it happens BEFORE you cross the safezone line: magazine detached, HPA hose disconnected and the line bled, chamber cleared, then the replica set to safe mode with the safety catch engaged. Keep a barrel sock or plug fitted the whole time you are inside, and never dry fire in the safezone. A marshal may inspect any replica at the line, and one that is not made safe will be refused entry until it is.
Alcohol & Drug Prohibition
Alcohol or narcotics consumption before or during any active skirmish phase is strictly forbidden. Breathalyzer checks may be conducted at safety check-in.
Certified 100% Biodegradable 6mm BBs Only
Only 6mm BBs are permitted — nothing larger, on any replica and at any field. To protect Belgian nature reserves and agricultural soil they must also be official certified bio BBs. Ammunition is inspected at chrono, and any other size will be refused.
