SUMMARY:HAYSTACK DATING | GOLF FANG CARDIFF | THURSDAY 19TH NOVEMBER
LOCATION:Golf Fang Cardiff
DESCRIPTION:CARDIFF WE ARE BACK!!!! Our amazing team at Golf fang were so e
 xcited to work with us again in CARDIFF. We host fun dating events in the 
 UK\, free from any forced fun or weird speed dating\, where we match you w
 ith groups of compatible single people using our algorithm!!!! Your ticket
  includes: -you'll be matched using our algorithm with 2 groups of people 
 who have similar interests -use of their crazy golf course with your group
 s (it is SO much fun....) -light icebreakers -the awesome reps on site and
  the amazing venue for the eve (there's also 2 outdoor areas to enjoy the 
 summer sun) -no worrying about wondering "are they single?"... because eve
 ryone is! The plan: From 6pm - arrive\, grab a drink and chat to some new 
 people (94% of people come alone and we float around making intros). 7:30p
 m - head to your area to meet a group of people who we've used science to 
 curate you with. nothing intense\, just some golf and a drink with people 
 with similar interests\, age appropriate and who also happen to be single.
  we've updated our tech so groups are now optimised for both romantic but 
 also platonic matches e.g people of your gender who we hope could become m
 ates. the whole point of these groups is to feel like you're having a drin
 k and a golf session with friends\, with the added bonus of meeting new pe
 ople and knowing everyone is single. After groups - everyone speaks to eve
 ryone our team are all floating if anyone wants wingmanning with none of t
 he "I wonder if they're single" situation. Close - Golf fang stays open un
 til 10 We're a small business and we absolutely bloody love what we do\, i
 f you have any questions please get in touch and please feel free to check
  out our reviews here! See you at Golf Fang? P.S don’t just take our wor
 d for it - feel free to check out our reviews here! PS (again xx) All data
  is securely managed in line with our data policy\, both this and our code
  of conduct can be found here We’re a sociable bunch and always like to 
 take short video clips for our social media. We’ll always avoid faces wh
 erever possible\, but if you’d rather stay 100% off camera please just c
 ome and let the team know on the night so we can make a conscious effort t
 o keep you out of any frame! How are we doing dating differently? FAQs Are
  dating events worth it? We have worked very hard to make events for singl
 e people that don't feel like a typical "dating event" which we know can f
 eel very overwhelming. We just hire out great venues\, invest into fun ent
 ertainment\, and match single people together into groups on the evening s
 o you can go on multiple dates in a low-pressure environment. There are al
 ways new dating apps popping up\, which all have the same culture of ghost
 ing\, shallowness\, and let's be honest we can barely keep up with our fam
 ily's whatsapp chat let alone a dating app. What are our dating events? Ou
 r 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 th
 en you'll be introduced to your matched group. Depending on the event we w
 ill 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 n
 ight 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 eve
 nts such as tag rugby or rock climbing. How do you match single people? Wh
 en you buy a ticket you fill out a short form with some questions about yo
 urself mapped around research we conducted to what leads to meaningful con
 nections. We then run this through our algorithm which is a propietary poi
 nts based matching system using python to detect similarities between each
  person based on different parameters. We then spend hours going through e
 ach person to make sure there has been no discrepancies in the data and ev
 en more hours to make sure the group ages and ratios are appropriate. Afte
 rwards we analyse each table to make sure they are placed near tables we t
 hink we will match well\, and that are in the best place in the venue base
 d on what we know about the group. How does it work with data? All data is
  securely managed in line with our data policy\, both this and our code of
  conduct can be found here How does it work with social media? We’re a s
 ociable bunch and always like to take short video clips for our social med
 ia. We’ll always avoid faces wherever possible\, but if you’d rather s
 tay 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 c
 ancellation policy? There’s a huge amount of work behind the scenes befo
 re events to get everyone matched into great groups. If you need to transf
 er your ticket to a friend\, we do ask please that you pop us an email wit
 h 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 refu
 nds\, but we will always do our 100% best to find a solve!x What’s the a
 ge group? The average age is 33 but we tend to attract from early 20s to m
 id 40s and groupings take age into account. Is this event wheelchair acces
 sible? Yes\, we will never work with a venue that isn’t :) Is this a spe
 ed dating event? Absolutely not. The thought of having to effectively pitc
 h yourself\, every two minutes\, to a stranger\, is our worst nightmare an
 d feels the furthest thing in the world away from natural. These events ar
 e 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 pre
 ssure 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 p
 eople 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 hon
 est\, in pubs in the uk\, is very rare lol)\n\nBoletos: https://www.fatsom
