What the hell is this noise?!

I'm sat at home in bed. Kids are asleep. DH is away for work and I'm watching true crime on YouTube. Go for a wee and the bathroom window is slightly open. It's just gone 11pm and I can hear .... I'm not sure what.... I can only describe it as cheering on of... something.

We live in a suburban area of a large town in the north west with a cricket ground and recreational park nearby with football pitches etc within about 1/4 mile. We can hear cheering and clapping etc in summer as expected with cricket and football matches going on. But, late on a Tuesday night in March I can hear multiple male voices shouting "come on!" "Go! Go! Go!" And whooping and clapping. It's coming from a reasonable distance not a nearby house. Definitely outside. Been going on for about an hour.

We have woodland and parks nearby. I just can't fathom out what it could be at this time of night that's going on! Any ideas?

Did you find out OP?

I was thinking of you and this thread this morning when I had an early start today. I opened my windows and heard men panting and laughing and general 'physical noises'. Turns out it was tag-rugby (8am start - nutters) about 1.5 miles away!

I'm slightly higher than ground level where I live but just goes to show how far noise carries.
