Yesterday’s Macarthur Baseball League 𝗟𝗘𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗦 𝗗𝗔𝗬 was everything we hoped it would be — and more. We often say 𝗟𝗘𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗦 𝗗𝗔𝗬 is the biggest day on our calendar, and yesterday certainly proved why.

A huge thank you to our PLAYERS, past and present, who gave their time, pulled on the uniform, supported the day and showed exactly what it means to represent Macarthur Baseball. Legends Day simply does not happen without you.

To our LEGENDS, thank you for returning to Gilchrist Oval and sharing the memories, stories and passion that laid the foundations of our league.

A special thank you to Ross Morrison for the honour of throwing out the first pitch and helping officially open such an important day. Congratulations to Anthony Carroll, winner of the Home Run Bat Derby — a fantastic highlight of the day 👏💣

We were incredibly proud to see so many junior representative players in attendance — thank you for showing up, representing the future of our game, and to the parents who brought them along and continue to support their baseball journeys.

Thank you to our amazing supporters who helped make the day even bigger:
🎟 Ryan from #alphaexteriors, #prydemeatsnarellan and #bankstownsportsclub for the generous raffle prize donations

🍔 Brad & Cherie Clugston, our canteen managers {and the players, mums, sisters and girlfriends that all jumped in to help-out) for the outstanding food and ice-cold drinks all day. I’ve never seen that canteen lines consistently so long.

📸 #mickgphotography, official photographer, for capturing the moments and memories

🍦 The team from #minimeltsaustralia for the icy cold sweet treats throughout the day

📡 Brad from #bplivesports for delivering our regular livestream so our wider baseball family could be part of Legends Day wherever they were.

To our 𝗮𝗹𝗹 volunteers, officials, scorers, ground staff and organisers, your tireless behind-the-scenes work is the backbone of events like this — thank you.

Finally, a huge thank you to Executive Committee: President - 𝙎𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙚 𝘿𝙤𝙙𝙙, Secretary - 𝘽𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙖 𝙁𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙠𝙨, Treasurer - 𝙂𝙡𝙚𝙣 𝙈𝙘𝘾𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙖 along with our Macarthur Orioles Head Coach 𝙈𝙞𝙩𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝙇𝙞𝙙𝙙𝙡𝙚, whose countless hours of work — both behind the scenes and on the field — helped turn Legends Day into the HUGE SUCCESS it was.

Legends Day reminded us that baseball in Macarthur is more than a game — it’s history, pride, community and connection across generations.

From all of us at Macarthur Baseball League, thank you for making Legends Day unforgettable 🖤💛⚾
