Airsoft @ UMD was founded February 2009 to provide any and all Airsoft enthusiasts who are part of the University of Maryland community (students, faculty, staff) a safe, fun, and friendly place to skirmish.

After experiencing technical difficulties, our list-serv is now online. If you are have not been receiving club emails, please contact Dave AND Tony with the email address you'd like included.

We are currently gearing up and getting ready for our second First Look Fair. The club is also preparing to place an order for more gear, which will provide the club with a dozen new replicas.

Airsoft is a modern combat sport or recreational hobby in which participants eliminate opponents by hitting each other with spherical non-metallic rounds launched from a compressed-air gun (or airsoft gun) powered by gas, manual spring-load, or electrically powered gearbox.

Airsoft participants organize meetings at dedicated airsoft battlefields often manipulated to provide walls, bunkers, trenches, buildings, and other similar man-made field enhancements to offer realism analogous to real war environments.
