League 1 - Postponed Games - Here to help

[paulm...@gmail.com]

Hi all

 

I can see two games were played last night, thank you.  Still the league with most postponed games

 

I can see that Bearos still have 3 games to play as do Wombatters.  Bearo’s have struggled for numbers this season, other teams have been weather affected.

 

Next week, there is a potential fro double headers (3 innings each) on teusday 23^rd….  Bearo’s could catch up, if Wombatters and/or CRUK help them out.

 

If you share planned dates for next week, rest week after, you might be able to coordinate dates for double headers, play twice a week if you can.  We have rest of this week for postponed games.  Round 5, then another rest week.

 

Home Team	Away Team	Date Assigned	Status	HP Date
The BearOs	AMS Cobras	Mon 11/05/2026	Postponed
AMS Cobras	Wombatters	Mon 18/05/2026	Postponed
The BearOs	Wombatters	Mon 01/06/2026	Postponed
The BearOs	Mighty CRUK’s	Mon 08/06/2026	Postponed
Mighty CRUK’s	Wombatters	Mon 22/06/2026		Tue 23/06/2026
Sloths and Centipedes	AMS Cobras	Mon 22/06/2026
The Crabs	The BearOs	Mon 22/06/2026

 

Worse case scenario, if all the games don’t get played..  I’ll draw lots and assign you KO’s based on games played, possibly assume the odd walkover to fudge the table.   You will all get at least 1 knockout game, it’s about finding a fair way to get you that.

 

I am here to help you get as many league games in as you can, keep your teams motivated so people still want to take part.

 

If you can reply to this thread, fill in the matrix of planned fixtures, you can all help each other etc.

 

Enough for now, better log in and do my day job.

 

Paul

Hi league 1

 

Thanks for catching up everybody this week, hope you had fun.

 

Assuming you all play Round 5 games in the sun next week in the Sun, leaves us with 3 postponed games:

 

Home Team	Away Team
AMS Cobras	Wombatters

The BearOs

Mighty CRUK’s

The BearOs

Wombatters

 

Suggestion.

• Agree a night all three teams can play w/c 29^th of June.
• All play in Hyde Park.
• Play first two games over 3 innings.
• Then Bearos & Wombatters play a 2^nd 3 innings match, everybody else has a beer in the sun.
• I book you two pitches next each other if you tell me a date asap.

 

Shout if you need us.

 

Here to help

Hi Stato and league 1 captains,

Hoping we can get this sorted, and looking forward to some more softball in the sun!

Our preferred day is Tuesday 30^th - we now have 10 players confirmed. We unfortunately had quite low responses for the following few days, most notably because a few of our teams members have been pulled into attending a corporate event on the Wednesday eve.

Let me know if this works for everyone.

Thanks so much,

Luke

Thanks everyone. We have full team for 1st July but not for 30th. We are polling 29th at the moment and that isn't looking that promising.

[David Hibberd]

Morning folks, thanks for everyone’s efforts in trying to get these games played!

Wombatters and AMS have pencilled in Monday 29th for our rearranged game as we are both hopeful we’ll have enough for that day.

Looking back at that email chain, AMS don’t have enough for the 30th and 1st. Wombatters can scrape a team for the 30th but have hardly any women able to make the 1st. So as it stands:

	Monday 30	Tuesday 31	Wednesday 1
Wombatters	✅	✅
AMS	✅
BearOs			✅
CRUK		✅

What about squeezing an extra game into week 5? Wombatters and CRUK are playing Tuesday 23rd, what day are the BearOs playing next week?

Many thanks,

Hi Dave et al

Round 5 data from Pitch bookings....  BearOs playing Thursday.  Could CRUK and Or wombatters play a 2nd time next week?  BearOs been struggling for numbers al season?

Round 5 - Known to stato

Home	Away	Hyde Park Booking
Mighty CRUK’s	Wombatters	Tues 23rd – Pitch 4

Sloths and Centipedes

AMS Cobras

No booking
The Crabs	The BearOs	Thurs 25th – Pitch 3

[David Hibberd]

We don’t have enough to fit in a double on the Thursday, I think we only have 3 player available for the 25th. Possibly we could get a few more and do Wednesday 24th.

Many thanks,

David Hibberd
Senior designer

[Jonathan Tye]

We have a squad of 14 currently to play Wombatters on Tues 23^rd. Could we potentially do a double-header that day to get our fixture with Bearos completed too, on the basis of lending them up to 4 of our players, if they’re struggling for numbers.

 

Thanks,

JT

[Liam Bateson]

Hi All,

 

The next two weeks are proving quite difficult for us to find players due to some events that people will have to attend. Based on the polls we’ve sent around, the Monday (30^th) we’ve pencilled in for our game with Wombatters is the only real option for us. If Sloths and Centipedes and Wombatters were happy we could aim for a double header that day?

 

Appreciate two double headers in two weeks would be far from Ideal for so do let us know if you would prefer not to.

 

Best wishes,

Liam

Hey Liam, if you mean that you’re struggling to get players out for your scheduled game next week vs S&C’s, we’re more than happy to play a shortened game if they want to play after us on Monday 30th.

Many thanks,

David Hibberd

[Liam Bateson]

Hi David,

 

Thanks, yeah if S&Cs are happy with that that might be a good option for us to get all the games scheduled. @Markus Tralla does that sound like it would work for your team?

 

Best wishes,

Liam

[Joe Parrott]

Hi all 

Thanks JT for the offer of loaning players on Tuesday, I'll ask our team and see if we can get enough players together. 

4 players did initially say they were available for Tuesday so if they're still around then we might be able to get enough players to play. Is it ok if I let you know on Monday morning? 

Thanks 

Joe (from the Bearos)

Hey gang, my wonderful captain Fran has pointed out that I’ve got my dates muddled: Monday is the 29th, Tuesday the 30th and Wednesday the 1st.

So, for example, the Wombatters are playing AMS Cobras on Monday 29th and can accommodate Sloths and Centipedes if they’re able to play AMS that day.

If the BearOs can get a team out for Tuesday 23rd we could always do a round-robin and all play 2 innings each and complete three games at the same time?! We have 11 so could lend a player too?

• Innings 1: CR vs W
• Innings 2: W vs B
• Innings 3: B vs CR …then repeat once more.

Just grasping at straws before Stato starts drawing them!

Many thanks,

David Hibberd

[Jonathan Tye]

The 3 way Round Robin on 23rd is an interesting idea and think it could work assuming the below numbers, if I’ve got it right. Can the committee firstly confirm that’s an allowable solution and then we can aim to agree between ourselves on Monday (noting I’m last season’s captain, so wouldn’t want to agree to anything without Alex and Luke being across this from our side)

 

• Innings 1: CR vs W (10 CR v 10 W)
• Innings 2: W vs B (10 W v 4 B + 6 CR)
• Innings 3: B vs CR …then repeat once more. (4 B + 6 W v 10 CR)

[paulm...@gmail.com]

Hi all

 

So we have multiple staff events and very few days where diaries align in the next two weeks.

 

I can’t give you a Hyde Park pitch for Monday 29^th, reserved for Hotels league.  So if a Monday 29^th double header happens, will need to be elsewhere.

 

My worst case scenario is that I only get 3 or 4 out of 6 games played by 9pm on the 29^th of June.  Especially hard on Bearo’s, 2 postponed games to play and out of time, they can only do Wednesday that week and nobody else can.

 

This again assumes no rain too.

 

If my synopsis is correct, I will find a way to drop you all into a knock out.  I will basically play god and decide you final placing for expediency…. Based on what is easiest for the league.  I want to give you as much opportunity to influence the outcome, but I also need to be realistic.

 

If Results go my way for easy admin…

• the 4 games below all end up as home victories and the table stays as ishttps://www.charitysoftball.co.uk/fg/1_639796930.html.
• 1 CRUK and 2 Crabs into CUP, 3 S&C and 4 AMS into plate.
• 5 Wombatters and 6 BearO’s into the Shield…. Straight to quarter finals (2 drop outs in league 2).  Big gap till wc 20^th of July.  They could play their unplayed league at their convenience at some point b4 then… dead rubber gets a game in though.
• So effectively only unplayed game would be BearOs vs CRUK, which has no impact on final placings

 

But life is never easy!  Let’s all keep talking, but at least you know where my league admin hat is at… help you get as many games in, you’ll all get a chance to play in front of the crowds on finals night.

Thanks for looking into the permutations Paul, we really appreciate it.

Based on my reading of the league table that looks like a fair result, no complaints from me. I’d love to get in as many games as possible but I’m very sympathetic to having low numbers, it’s really tough when you desperately scrimp together a team… only for the oppo not to be able to make that day.

Thanks for the reminder about hot having a booked space for Mondays, Regent’s it is! 

Many thanks,

Hi all

 

I have taken the liberty of booking you pitch 5 next Teusday 23^rd, to hold the space.

 

If you can play multiple games what ever the format/length, I will approve the results… assuming all who turn up understand the consequences.  Priority is getting games in, you’ll get a knock out whatever.

 

I am in London for work and will come down and watch, umpire if you really want me to.  I am happy to be a passive catcher to help you get games in, as long you understand I am tied to the rebels, so would basically lob missed pitches back (pitcher would cover home).

 

As one of the two  committee reps for league 1, my job is to help you.

 

Stato

Morning all,

I hope you had lovely weekends!

We'd be happy to lock in for a three way round robin tomorrow. @'Joe Parrott'/ @'Rosemary Ashworth' how are you doing with numbers, is this something the BearOs could make?

Thanks,

Hi everyone 

Unfortunately, we're really struggling to get any players so I don't think we're going to be able to make it tomorrow. 

Best wishes 

Joe

[David Hibberd]

No worries Joe, thanks for trying.

When you know how you’re doing for the 29^th and 30^th give us a shout to see if we can get our game played then. If that’s looking unlikely we’d love to play a friendly in the first knockout week — I have one Alex Clarke who’s super keen to play his old team!

[Luke Stebbings]

Hi guys,

We could go for Tuesday 30^th and both Wombatters and CRUK lend BearOs a player or two to make up the numbers?

We have 11 (and 1 or 2 more potentially joining) so if we did 9v9 on Tuesday then we can lend 2 and Wombatters, you could potentially lend 1 or 2 of yours as well?

Hopefully that can work!

Thanks,

Luke

Thanks for the offer, the 30th won't work for us unfortunately as we don't have many players for that day. 

We currently have 7 now signed up for Monday 29th so we could do then if we can loan one player? 

And we still have a full team available for Weds 1st July. 

Thanks 

Joe

[David Hibberd]

Hi Joe,

That sounds like a plan as unfortunately (and despite significant cajoling) we still have very few Women available on Weds. We have 10 for Monday so can lend a player for 9v8. If I remember correctly AMS are happy to play a shorter game with us so we can get the W vs B game in afterwards.

@Luke Stebbings what are your number like for Monday 29th? Could you play the BearOs while we’re playing AMS?

[Luke Stebbings]

Hi David,

Thanks for these suggestions, sounds like we're making real progress! 

We've got 7 for Monday, so not a whole team but maybe with a player donation we could have an 8vs8 or 9vs9, what do you think @Joe?

Thanks,

Luke

Hi both 

Thanks for this sounds good, so just to clarify we'd play 2 games on the Monday? 

Bearos Vs MCRUKs 

Bearos Vs Wombatters 

And sorry, i got bit lost in the email chain. Did we say we'd play slightly shorter games? 

Thanks 

Joe

[David Hibberd]

Hey,

Yes, that’s right. Wombatters vs AMS and CRUK vs BearOs will play at the same time for 3 innings. Then Wombatters vs BearOs for 3 innings. 

I think we pretty much all have low numbers but we’ll make it work by loaning players to the teams that need them most.

Does Regents Park work for all teams? Hopefully it won’t be too hard finding pitches on a Monday.

[Joe Parrott]

Thanks David, sounds good to me. 

And yes, happy with Regents Park

[Luke Stebbings]

Thanks, and if I'm right in thinking AMS would play Sloths while Wombatters play BearOs? MCRUKs can sit out/loan players if needed then too

Regents works though, thanks David 🙂

Think I had said before but Regents park would work for AMS as well.

 

Best wishes,

[Markus Tralla]

Sloths and Centipedes has 10 who said they can do Monday 29^th of June for our game against AMS Cobras.

 

Regents works for us too.

Looking forward to our games on Monday – can I check where in Regents we’d look to play? We usually go up near Cumberland Terrace on the Camden side.

 

Thanks,

Hi all 

Unfortunately, the Bearos have had a few last minute drop outs, so we're now down to 5 players...will it be possible to loan enough players from other teams to cover the shortfall? 

Thanks 

Joe

[Alex Crouch]

Hi Joe,

 

The Mighty CRUKs only have 9 so we wouldn’t be able to loan any players for our match – sorry!!

 

Thanks,

[David Hibberd]

Hey Joe,

We have 10 Wombatters tonight so we could loan you a couple of players if AMS are happy for us to play them with eight.

[Markus Tralla]

Sloths and Centipedes might have a couple extra as well.

Not sure when we’re playing exactly (due to play AMS at some point), but will offer subs too if possible.

 

Markus

[Alex Crouch]

Thanks all - @Joe Parrott are BearOs happy to go ahead based on this?

 

Alex
