But after having a year off due to injury it was great to be back. Although I didn’t quite get some of my results I was after I finished with a couple of top ten at the European finals. I have put down a good base for my comeback and have a solid platform now to build on over the summer and take on in to next season and working towards Sochi 2014.

There is a lot of work to be done but I can’t wait to see what Rampant activities I can get up to over the summer.”

His team have won gold and bronze in the last two years in world championships and this brings Chris one step closer to his dream of competing in the London 2012 Olympics this summer.

For more info about Chris, check out his profile on the GB Rowing Team website www.britishrowing.org/gb-rowing-team/biographies/chris-bartley or follow him on Twitter @Chris_BartleyGB.

Amongst it all was the popular long jump competition which saw some pretty lame attempts to some seriously massive leaps; one lad even smashed the 3 meter mark!

We’ll be back on the road again in the Summer spreading the word of Rampant with more competitions, sales and downright fun!

‘Sweet Summer colours, striking graphics, cute prints and carefully handpicked fabrics’, these are the threads of a superior Spring Summer 12 collection, in true Rampant style!

We have been back to university for extensive student research thus expanding our core range of polos, tees, hoodies, sweatpants, rugby shirts, gilets and drill pants with an explosion of new colours, fresh detail, subtle new branding and some cool Rampant graphics.  Expect exciting new additions to keep you on your toes, with a bright colour pallet sprinkling Summery vibes over the entire collection to create a typically energetic splash that sets Rampant apart!

UK wide campus research has inspired fashionable Summer additions to the collection which include:

For the ladies

-For those crisper evenings we’ve introduced a stylish shirt hooded jacket with drawcord and hood.

-A casual but cool baseball hem vest with original graphic and scooped out arm detail and an awesome and edgy stripe legging.

-Introducing the brand new women’s Rampant running short, the ultimate sport-inspired item and bang on trend this season.

For the lads

-Introducing a short sleeve rugby polo in sharp vivid stripes with a vintage woven collar and heritage inspired branding.

-We’ve also developed a new fitted style of crew with front pocket and a bold Rampant graphic stamped on the front chest.

-Mens loungewear stays typically Rampant with lairy striped PJs and trend-inspired with draw cord ankles.

Thanks to you, our loyal Rampant Sporting customer, we were able to raise enough to give approximately 1000 gifts through our ‘You Give, We Give’ campaign in which we pledged to give 15% of all our pre-Christmas sales to those who really need it.

With such a huge number of gifts to give, we took your charity suggestions and added a few of our own to find 6 really deserving causes to donate our gifts of Rampant socks and scarves to.

Here’s a few snaps of us delivering our belated Christmas gift to Barnardos Childrens Charity, Loros Hospice, Rainbows Childrens Hospice, Coping with Cancer Trust (Leicester), Framework Shelter (Nottingham) and Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Why not take a look at all they great work they do and find out how you can support them.

We had a really great response and a lot of imaginative guesses!  However, the guesses kept coming and often only matched the obscurity of the day’s gift!

Here were just a few:

Tom’s Fudge – day 9 www.tomsfudge.co.uk

Rampant Sporting gym kit – day 10

Sadle pad & signed Riders Revealed Calendar – day 14

James Whites Drinks – day 16 www.jameswhite.co.uk

Antique bugle – day 21

Red Bull fridge – day 23

Origins film cast

 Memebers of the Rugby Union, Riding Club and Lacrosse teams turned up as the store was fillled to the brim. As the premier of the video neared, plenty of Grace and Sam’s friends came into store to support them and check out their friends on the projector. The lights were dimmed and director Tom Murray gave a quick introduction as the film was broadcast. 

To add to the party atmosphere Red Bull came along and provided free drinks which was a big hit with the students! 

Lookout for more store events with Rampant and Red Bull in the future.  

Luckily for you our very own Rampant grannies/superstars have once again been grafting away to bring you a wonderfully Rampant selection of knitted beanie hats ready in time for the fresh winter mornings – they also make the perfect xmas gift!

Lynne, Pat and Jane have each created their very own signature winter beanie in truly Rampant colours and statement bobble, finished with a Rampant branded label.

Don’t worry we didn’t make them work too hard. Each of our three beanie styles is limited edition and comes with a personal message from the grannie who made it. Grab one while you can! (Available atwww.rampantsporting.com)
