Thank you for consistently engaging in the game each week with sportsmanship and unwavering ethical conduct, ultimately culminating in reaching the Grand Final.

Without your dedication to driving our players to training and games every week, through weather extremes, and your unwavering presence on the sidelines cheering them on in triumphs and consoling them in defeats, our competition would not thrive. Your commitment is invaluable and appreciated.

A massive shoutout to our incredible umpires who kept the games fair and exciting. We donโt have a game without umpires. Thank you to all the umpires who stepped up and officiated a game or two, whether behind the dish or on a base. We were able to provide a four-man umpiring team on some junior games, something Iโm guessing none of the players would have experienced previously. Thanks to Alex Lyle, Tash Cuddy, Jack Bennetts, Justin Fry, Kobi Dodd, Glen McCanna, Chase Dodd, Fletcher Willard, Craig Dodd, Noah Atkins, Kody Franks, Jordan Taylor, Riley Franks and Steve Bigwood. THANK YOU! A huge round of applause to our umpire Co-ordinator Justin Fry for successfully co-ordinating this team of umpires across six days, two venues, 19 gamesโฆ amazing effort.

Our scorers, youโre the unsung heroes of the game! Your meticulous recording ensures every moment is remembered. THANK YOU!

To our field and grounds crew, your hard work doesnโt go unnoticed! From dawn till dusk, youโve made our fields pristine. Huge thanks to all involved! Getting our premiere field prepared for the hard duty of 9 games (18 games inc Prelims) is a mammoth effort. A huge thank you to Barry Dodd, Shane Dodd, Nathan Willard, Tim Inglis, Glen McCanna, Craig Dodd, Darren Hughes and the Macarthur Colts Senior League team (Kobi, Fletcher, Parker, Leo, Lara, Isaac, Lachlan, Chase, Noah, Ryan, Jackson, Ivy & Billy) for the early mornings and late nights in setting up and packing down. Without your efforts no-one who have gotten on the diamond to play. THANK YOU!
Thank you to Red Sox Baseball Club for the use of their portable net for our Little League Majors game on the Senior Diamond.

Last but not least, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who kept our canteen running smoothly. You kept our players and fans fueled and smiling throughout the games. With our Canteen Manager away, I was in definite need of assistance. I could not have done it without the help of these amazing people: Kelly Hunt, Matt Hunt, Josh Atkins, Adam Forbes, Rebecca Forbes, Glen McCanna, Max McCanna, Craig Dodd, Shane Dodd, Daniel Fry, Justin Fry, Kody Franks, Darren Franks, Nicole Wolin and the Macarthur Colts Senior League team (Kobi, Fletcher, Parker, Leo, Lara, Isaac, Lachlan, Chase, Noah, Ryan and Jackson). You guys never stopped cooking, preparing, laughing, making me laugh, serving customers, restocking fridges, emptying garbage bins, restocking toilet paper, washing up, and so much more.
A very special thank you to Mia Roper and Mackenzie Willmott for their superb work in the canteen on Saturday. These two young ladies were initially a little shy, but we got them into a couple of MBL Crew polo shirts and before long it was like they had been working in our canteen for years. Girls, you were amazing and we would have you back anytime.
