=== Swanson closure and relocation in 2013 ===

On 27 June 2013, Actions Paintball announced that its Swanson venue would close because the land was being redeveloped.

The company stated that Swanson had been operating for 14 years and confirmed that its final scheduled game would take place on '''Sunday, 30 June 2013'''.[2]

The final event was a Scenario Sunday walk-on game.

Rather than cease operating, Actions transferred its west Auckland activities to the existing World Challenge Tag paintball facility in Riverhead Forest.

The company announced that, from '''1 July 2013''', customers could book games at:

* World Challenge Tag, Riverhead Forest
* Actions Paintball, Beachlands

The Riverhead operation was an established paintball venue rather than a new field created by Actions.

World Challenge Tag traced its history to 1985, making it one of the longest-established paintball operations in New Zealand.[2]

The 2013 arrangement represented the relocation of Actions' west Auckland operations and cooperation with World Challenge Tag, rather than the complete consolidation of both businesses.
