What we are about

Community first. Games that stick.

Justin and Courtny built Coyote as a way for people to reconnect with community and have fun doing it. We want to redefine what games can be and how you experience them.

We aim to balance the love and attention our craft demands while delivering at the speed players expect — to craft genre-defining games and legendary worlds for all to share.

Coyote Field in Ladoga, Indiana is where that mission shows up every weekend: airsoft, paintball, gellyball, and the people who make it worth showing up.

Gameplay

Weekend warriors to MILSIM veterans

Our weekend gameplay sessions bring out players of every level — first-time rentals, seasoned veterans, and everyone in between. Come solo or bring a crew. Either way, you leave with stories.

The field mixes woods lines, micro terrain, creek bottoms, and built structures so every game day feels different. Safety briefings, clear objectives, and refs who keep the pace high.

Events

Big days. Bigger community.

Coyote hosts FTXs, scenario weekends, pump and magfed meets, tournaments, and charity games that pull players from across Indiana and the Midwest.

Whether you are chasing a multi-day operation or a one-day special, this is where the community gathers — and where the legends get written.

In memoriam: Tony Cotten, 1965 to 2013, Courtny Cotten's father

Where Coyote started

In honor of Courtny's dad

Sept. 12, 1965 – May 9, 2013 · THRUBEINCOOL

Tony Cotten introduced Courtny to paintball in 1998, playing woods ball in the hills and valleys of Sugar Creek, Indiana. He was a teacher, coach, and businessman who loved developing the people around him through fun and games.

Coyote Force carries that spirit forward — community, competition, and a field where everyone can show up and play.
