We will work to inform all players via text or email where games are cancelled.
Given we live in the UK, where weather can be very changeable, GO Mammoth’s general viewpoint is that it is better to get players out playing each week EVEN IF it’s wet, cold, windy, raining, and even sometimes snowing. Similar to school, once you’re running about and playing, you may need to be more conscientious/slow the game down, but it’s still essentially exercise with friends.
Below are the various scenarios for when games may be cancelled due to extreme weather:
Games cancelled in advance – If games are cancelled in advance during the day you will usually be informed by 5pm on the day by email/sms. If this happens, your missed games will be rescheduled (extra week added on to the season) – so you will not miss any games overall. If you do not hear from us by 5pm, please ASSUME all games will be going ahead. We do speak with Venues throughout the day as well as looking at forecasts to determine whether games can go ahead.
Late notice cancellation – very occasionally the weather may deteriorate last minute which means the GO Mammoth umpire has to cancel games when you arrive or after games have already started. We try to minimise this scenario as much as possible for obvious inconveniences for players (and umpires), but when it does happen games not played will be rescheduled or credited. This decision to cancel games is completely at the discretion of GO Mammoth and feeds into the following point.
Team Forfeits – If you arrive at the venue and the GO Mammoth umpire has said it is playable but you disagree and/or do not wish to play e.g. it may be miserable/slippery/cold/wet etc, then this will be treated as a forfeit and fixtures will not be rescheduled or credits offered. In this instance, the GO Mammoth umpire is best placed to make the decision. Often some teams are happy to play in the conditions whilst others are not, so the last word is to the umpire.
If you have noticed any errors with your scores, email us at hello@gomammoth.co.uk clearly stating the sport you play, the league location, date of the game and the correct score. We will then investigate and update as soon as we can.
GO Mammoth is the largest organiser of after-work sports leagues in the country.
We organise social team sports for adults such as Netball, Football, Rounders, Cricket & Dodgeball… to more international sports such as Basketball, Softball and Volleyball.
You join a league for typically 8-12 weeks either as a team or individual and play a different team every week at the same venue. Game times vary each week within usually a 2-3 hr period.
For you to be removed from our database please email hello@gomammoth.co.uk.
All teams/players registering for a league, including corporate teams, must pay online using a debit/credit card before the start of the league to confirm their spot.
We do not offer the ability to pay by bank transfer etc.
Companies are therefore advised to either login and pay with a company debit/credit card OR e.g. your captain/organiser pays on their personal card, and then claims back from your employer through expenses.
After payment, if you a require company an invoice, please email members@gomammoth.co.uk clearly stating the Name of your League, Team Name, Company Details, and we’ll send out an invoice.
Games are usually played between 40-60 minutes. For more information on your particular sport, head over the your sport page , click onto the rules tab towards the bottom of the page.
We do not offer a pay as you go option and we can’t discount for players or teams not attending. All leagues are paid in full before the league begins to ensure players are motivated every week to attend. There should be plenty of players in each team to cover games you cannot attend so do not worry. You should also communicate with your team mates ahead of time so they can find a sub/ringer if needed.
We do not hire out pitches for private use.
However, if you would like us to organise a corporate sports day (eg. 20-100 people), then we can help. For more information, please contact us and speak to our Corporate Team by emailing corporate@gomammoth.co.uk or see our Corporate Sports Events here
All information on how to get to the venue can be found on the venue page on the website and in your welcome kick-off email. Information on the times of your games/classes will be emailed out to you before each game and can also be found in “My Fixtures” or “My Classes” in your control panel.
Yes, please log into your control panel > My Teams > Rename this team (next to the team name). If you do not see this option , then you will need to contact us in order to change your role to an “Organiser” (or alternatively, see if someone else in your team is already an Organiser.. there is always atleast one)
