We know meeting girls in London is hard so we are getting together for a girly day to play some rounders in the park, good chats, followed by a picnic and the option to head to a local pub after
The plan:
From 2pm - arrive at the park and meet some new people, we’ll give you a free energy drink to enjoy in the sun (94% of people come alone to our events and we float around making intros)
2:30pm - we will start games of rounders in the park (super low pressure and a nostalgic fun summer day activity with new people)
After rounders - after rounders we can have a picnic (we recommend bringing a small something along whether it’s some delicious hummus or a pasta salad or some strawberries so we can all share and soak up some sun together)
After picnic - we have the option to voyage to a local pub for drinks together after
We're a small business and we absolutely bloody love what we do, if you have any questions please get in touch and please feel free to check out our reviews here!
See you for rounders?
We have worked very hard to make events for single people that don't feel like a typical "dating event" which we know can feel very overwhelming. We just hire out great venues, invest into fun entertainment, and match single people together into groups on the evening so you can go on multiple dates in a low-pressure environment. There are always new dating apps popping up, which all have the same culture of ghosting, shallowness, and let's be honest we can barely keep up with our family's whatsapp chat let alone a dating app.
Our events use the power of tech to connect similar single people together. When you arrive to the venue you'll be greeted by our lovely reps, and then you'll be introduced to your matched group. Depending on the event we will introduce you to another one or two rounds of single people, where we match you by differently weighting the parameters of the algorithm. We re-invest profit into fun entertainment on the evening so you have a great night regardless - and host a range of events from relaxed drinks in a beer garden, to something a bit more active like arcade games, to sporty events such as tag rugby or rock climbing.
When you buy a ticket you fill out a short form with some questions about yourself mapped around research we conducted to what leads to meaningful connections. We then run this through our algorithm which is a propietary points based matching system using python to detect similarities between each person based on different parameters. We then spend hours going through each person to make sure there has been no discrepancies in the data and even more hours to make sure the group ages and ratios are appropriate. Afterwards we analyse each table to make sure they are placed near tables we think we will match well, and that are in the best place in the venue based on what we know about the group.
How does it work with data?
All data is securely managed in line with our data policy which can be found here
How does it work with social media?
We’re a sociable bunch and always like to take short video clips for our social media. We’ll always avoid faces wherever possible, but if you’d rather stay 100% off camera please just come and let the team know on the night so we can make a conscious effort to keep you out of any frame!
What's the cancellation policy?
There’s a huge amount of work behind the scenes before events to get everyone matched into great groups. If you need to transfer your ticket to a friend, we do ask please that you pop us an email with their name 7 days before an event so we can move things around. As with every other events company in our space, we are unable to facilitate refunds, but we will always do our 100% best to find a solve!x
What’s the age group?
The average age is 33 but we tend to attract from early 20s to mid 40s and groupings take age into account.
Is this event wheelchair accessible?
Yes, we will never work with a venue that isn’t :)
Is this a speed dating event?
Absolutely not. The thought of having to effectively pitch yourself, every two minutes, to a stranger, is our worst nightmare and feels the furthest thing in the world away from natural. These events are designed to feel organic and literally like you're having a drink with a group of new friends, in a great venue. You'll never see or feel any of the science we do behind the scenes and we match in groups to take the pressure off a one on one meet-up. Zero pressure, literally just fun, kind people, who have similar interests and also happen to be single.
94% of people come alone, which we've found creates a really friendly atmosphere where it never feels weird to strike up a conversation (which let's be honest, in pubs in the uk, is very rare lol)
