View in browser Week 15 Quarter Finals are here... Finals are coming Dear all, What a week. On the pitches, on the screens and apparently everywhere else in the sporting world too. Before we look ahead, a quick round up of where we are and what’s coming next. State of play We are almost there, with just a couple of games left to be played before finals night on 5 August. This final window is about wrapping up those last fixtures and locking everything in as we head into the sharp end of the competition. A reminder that teams knocked out of The Cup are not out of the running. You progress into the quarter finals of The Bluestep Cup, meaning everyone still has something big to play for as we move towards finals night. Match times and planning ahead Please keep a close eye on match start times, they should all be starting at 1830. With so few games left, punctual starts really matter. If you are in-need of an umpire, get in touch asap as we have fewer volunteers this year. Umpires will only be available for matches being played in Hyde Park. Awards on Finals Finals night is all about softball. League winners will be playing for silverware, The Cup, The Plate, The Shield and The Bluestep up for grabs. The Shield and Bluestep Cup will kick off at 1630 with The Plate and The Cup being contested at 1800. If you are playing in the earlier cups, please start work earlier of have a chat with your manager as you will need to be ready to kick off at 1630. Alongside the on‑field action, we will also be handing out awards for best social media content and best photo, so keep posting, tagging and capturing the moments. Glory is not limited to the scoreboard.

Glory is not limited to the scoreboard. Pack a picnic Finals night is a long one, so do a Yogi Bear and pack a picnic. Make a proper evening of it and fuel yourselves for the drama. Although food is provided by the Bluesteppers (Sandwiches to meet your dietary requirements) each team will only receive two trays - so, bring your own to top up. Keeping tidy A big thank you to teams for keeping things tidy during wherever you’ve been playing your league matches. It really is noticed and appreciated. Looking ahead to finals night, we will need all hands at the ready to help keep the London Mets playing fields in tidy. To support this, each team will receive a black dustbin bag, and we ask everyone to be mindful and tidy up after themselves. We do not have cleaners on site, so we all need to take responsibility for our own mess. We strongly suggest nominating cleaning champions within your teams to coordinate your tidying and for teams to clean away their/ your rubbish throughout the evening, rather than leaving it all until the end when it’s dark and everyone just wants to head to the pub. Let’s keep doing our bit to tidy up our Sh.! Surely, if keeping tidy means a quicker exit to the pub, should be the motivation we can all get behind! or Bin it. Bag it. Pub it.

Bin it, Bag it, Pub it! Keeping tidy

A big thank you to teams for keeping things tidy during wherever you’ve been playing your league matches. It really is noticed and appreciated. Looking ahead to finals night, we will need all hands at the ready to help keep the London Mets playing fields in tidy. To support this, each team will receive a black dustbin bag, and we ask everyone to be mindful and tidy up after themselves. We do not have cleaners on site, so we all need to take responsibility for our own mess.

We strongly suggest nominating cleaning champions within your teams to coordinate your tidying and for teams to clean away their/

your rubbish throughout the evening, rather than leaving it all until the end when it’s dark and everyone just wants to head to the pub. Let’s keep doing our bit to tidy up our Sh.! [insert cheeky emoji]

Surely, if keeping tidy means a quicker exit to the pub, should be the motivation we can all get behind!
