Would you like to play a match of football or rounders with a group of friends? How about softball or Ultimate Frisbee? Avoid solitary workouts in the gym and get out and be social with GO Mammoth. With more than 10 sports leagues starting at various times throughout the year, you can easily find a team to join either on your own, with a friend or with a group of friends. According to founder Luke Mohr approximately half of all new members sign up not knowing anyone and stay for the social aspect – GO Mammoth organ- ises social events for team members so you can get to know each other off the pitch too.

Flag — remember how much fun it was playing these games? Rabble founder Charlotte Roach certainly does. A former triathlete who said she was tired of the same old workouts in the gym, Roach set out to make exercise so much fun that you don’t even realise you’re doing it. “Exercise is a chore for most people. I looked around the gym and saw no one was enjoying it,” she explained. So she set up Rabble where you can get your adrenaline filled HIIT while playing fun games with friends. Teir Clapham Common location is by far the most popular, with as many as 30 peo- ple on the weekends but Rabble has loca- tions all over London and the country. Roach noted that Rabble has a lot of expat members, as it’s an ideal way to meet peo- ple. Pay as you go or buy a package and play at any location.
