“I Met My Fiancé Playing While Dodgeball With GO Mammoth” Posted on 23rd May 20176th June 2017 by gomammoth What made you decide to play dodgeball? Well my friend Melanie’s boyfriend was playing dodgeball with another company and she wanted to give it a go as well, and thought she would asked me to join in. I thought it would be a good idea as being a French lady in London, it would be a cool way to meet other Londoners, broaden my horizons, be social and play some sport too. I also watched the movie dodgeball before I signed up. So tell us the story about how you met your fiancé Ciaran playing dodgeball? When Melanie and I paid for our first GO Mammoth dodgeball league in Chelsea, we received an email from you guys with details of our team-mates. I was single at the time, so Melanie and I decided to look down the list of our team mates to find out more about the details of them. I saw Ciaran’s name on the list and wasn’t too familiar with Irish names so didn’t know whether we was a guy or a girl! But during the first game things clicked between us and after the game, our team headed straight to the pub, we sat next to each other and chatted throughout the evening. The next week, however, I was a little annoyed, as he had to miss the game due to a late work meeting. But our third dodgeball game fell on Valentine’s Day and Ciaran was back. We played our game, went to the pub again, chatted for ages and organised our first date for the following week! So all it took was two dodgeball games for us to hook up! You should have seen our priest’s face (who’s marrying them) when he asked us how we met. When we said dodgeball brought us together, you should have seen his face. Our wedding won’t be dodgeball themed though. How many dodgeball leagues have you played for and in which areas have you played in? We’ve played in Chelsea Academy in Fulham – I remember there was a great pub on the corner, then we went and played in an outdoor league in Putney and now we’re playing close to Ciaran’s office in Kings Cross. We’ve played 5 or 6 seasons in total now. My current team is made up of Ciaran’s charity worker colleagues (Ciaran works for charity Action Aid) and they call me the “Business Girl” as i run a jewellery company. Also my last name is Jamet, so my nickname in my team is Jamet Dodger (like the biscuit)! Aside from Ciaran, what’s the best thing about playing dodgeball with GO Mammoth? I love meeting new people and playing dodgeball with GO Mammoth I met people from completely diverse backgrounds – they have different experiences and stories. I kinda like that. I also like the game. It’s a lot of fun! Do you recommend playing dodgeball if you’re single? Yeah! I think it’s good for your energy – it lifts you up. You might not find ‘the one’ at your game, but because it’s such a feel-good game, you’ll have a great time whether you meet anyone or not. Do you have any top tips/tactics/advice for playing dodgeball? Don’t worry if you’re throw isn’t the best – just improve your catching technique! If you can catch you’ll be an amazing asset for your team. Also make sure you’re team gets custom t-shirts designed for your games. It will make you even tighter as a team. And finally…what would you say to anyone that is one the fence about playing dodgeball with GO Mammoth? It’s fun! There isn’t many fun things you can do during your weekdays. It’s as good as watching a good movie in the cinema. Just give it a go. Ready to play dodgeball with us.

3 reasons why playing dodgeball is the best way to meet new people! Posted on 2nd April 201728th April 2017 by gomammoth 1) Dodgeball is the ultimate icebreaker – say goodbye to those awkward silences! Okay so there are now plenty of social apps out there designed to help people make new friends, but one thing they can’t help you with is breaking the ice when you’re meeting people for the first time. The first time you step into one of our dodgeball venues, you’ll immediately be greeted and welcomed by one of our friendly dodgeball league reps, before stepping out onto the court with your new team mates for several sets of a fun social sport! Diving GIF – Find & Share on GIPHY Simply put, your first GO Mammoth dodgeball game will minimise the awkward silences of meeting people for the first time and maximise your fun! 2) When you hit our partner bar for the first time after you’ll all have a shared experience to talk about! We’ve all been there – when speaking to new people for the first time, you immediately try to find your common interests, which can mean that initial conversations can become stilted, awkward and slightly stressful! This doesn’t happen at GO Mammoth dodgeball, because after each game, the majority of our members head to our league’s partner bar (where you you’ll get a great discounts on drinks) and you’ll immediately have something in common to talk about – your first dodgeball game! Awkward GIF – Find & Share on GIPHY Your team will be sharing stories of their awesome throws, catches, and of course, dodges, before the conversation moves onto tactics for next week’s game. Ice…broken! 3) You’re new friend network will extend beyond just your team! Ever noticed that one of the weird quirks of Facebook is sometimes (if you haven’t messed around with your settings) you’ll spot posts from the friends of your friends (aka people you don’t know!) pop up in your news feed. But when playing dodgeball with GO Mammoth, the people you don’t know from week 1 (ie. players from other teams) you will know by the end of your season! When our dodgeball players hit our partner bars, their opponents on the dodgeball court soon become their friends in the bar! Tv GIF – Find & Share on GIPHY Simply put…forget using apps to meet people. Playing dodgeball will give you a great new social network. Why not give it a go? Ready to play dodgeball with us.

5 Reasons Why Playing Netball Will Improve Your Working Week Posted on 24th January 201716th September 2022 by gomammoth We asked our GO Mammoth netball team why playing netball improves their day to day life at work. So if you’re thinking about playing netball for the first time or getting back into it, take a little look at this: 1) Playing netball regularly will improve your concentration and focus in the office “I hate the first couple of weeks back in the office after Christmas, as I struggle to keep focus on my day-to-day tasks; this is a big problem for my role as I have to book the umpires for all of our leagues. Getting back out on the netball court after Christmas not only gets my fitness levels back toward they want to be and undoubtedly improves my ability to concentrate on hitting my targets at work .” Bridget Dowling – Reps Manager 2) Playing netball regularly will allow to catch more zzzzzzzzzzzz “Struggle with sleeping? Play netball. It’s a game that tires your brain as well as your body. I play netball three times a week and as soon as my head hits my pillow, it’s always light out.” Josie Knight – Member Services Manager 3) Playing netball regularly will lift your mood at work “Let’s be honest for a moment. The workplace will always be a stressful environment. But I definitely feel that since playing netball once a week, I generally have a more positive outlook during my 9-5. When I play netball on a Wednesday night, Thursdays are always a good day for me.” Kitty Ayling – Operations Manager 4) Playing netball with your colleagues will foster a better working relationship “Our GO Mammoth team play netball every Wednesday night. Apart from being a lot of fun, it gives each of us the opportunity to socialise with colleagues that we don’t often work with closely on a daily basis. I definitely feel playing netball helps me work more effectively with my colleagues in the office. ” Hannah Lambert – Operations 5) Playing netball regularly will give you an excuse to get out of work on time! “Okay okay so we work at GO Mammoth, so if we didn’t leave work to arrive for our netball games on time, it would look pretty bad on us! But I believe it’s important to maintain a good work/life balance – having a regular activity in your weekly schedule such as netball will help give you the impetus to get out of work on time.” Sam Stevenson – Member Services Ready to play netball with us: London – Play Netball in London North East – Play Netball In Leeds | Play Netball In Sheffield North West – Netball In Liverpool | Netball In Manchester Scotland – Netball In Edinburgh | Netball In Glasgow South – Play Netball In Oxford | Play Netball In Portsmouth | Play Netball In Reading | Play Netball In Southampton South East – Play Netball In Brighton South West – Play Netball In Bath | Play Netball In Bristol Wales – Play Netball In Cardiff Read more netball content from GO Mammoth: Here are 10 reasons why you should play netball with us 10 things everyone who played netball at school will relate to The netball rules changed in September – check out the latest additions!

Is Westbrook’s traveling violation the most bizarre ever? Posted on 23rd January 201723rd January 2017 by gomammoth Oklahoma were playing at Golden State earlier this month; a great match-up which saw the Warriors defeat Thunder by 121-100. It was also a match made notable for Oklahoma’s Point Guard Russell Westbrook’s leisurely stroll across the court in the third quarter.
