🏉 FRIDAY NIGHT FINALS REMINDER

Our Social League Tag Knockout Finals are on this Friday 28 August at Anzac Oval, after Monday night’s games were postponed due to the thunderstorm.

All games will be played on Field 1, kicking off from 5:30pm, with matches running consecutively throughout the evening.

A quick reminder for teams to please be ready to take the field when required, particularly those progressing through multiple games. Matches will be 10-minute halves, with only a short turnaround between games.
Please also make sure all players taking part are registered and eligible to play.

Check the draw for your starting time and we’ll see everyone Friday night! 🏉

⛈️ TONIGHT’S SOCIAL LEAGUE TAG CANCELLED

Due to the thunderstorm weather warning for this evening, tonight’s Social League Tag finals have been cancelled for the safety of our players, officials and supporters.

📅 The games will now be rescheduled to Friday 28 August.

Thank you for your understanding. Please stay safe, Brothers family. 🙌🏾

Just a quick heads up for tonight 💙

Our canteen will be closed this evening, but you’re welcome to bring your own food and drinks.

Please help us keep ANZAC Oval tidy by cleaning up before you leave. Thanks everyone! 🙌

🏉 ROUND 7 | KNOCKOUT FINALS.

The Social League Tag Comp heads into finals tomorrow night, Monday 24 August, at Anzac Oval.

This round will run a little differently, with all matches played as knockout finals on Field 1. Winners progress through the draw, while a loss ends the team’s finals campaign. Games will be played consecutively with 10-minute halves, so teams progressing may only have around 5 minutes between matches.

A few important reminders for players:
• Please be ready to take the field as soon as the previous match finishes so the draw can stay on schedule.
• Players must be registered online to take part in the finals.
• Finals teams can only use players who participated during the regular season — no additional finals-only fill-ins.

Please check the draw carefully for your starting time and be ready to go.

NOTE: Please also be prepared if games get rescheduled to a later day this week, as it’s forecasted to rain heavily tomorrow.
