Handbook Section 7

Every time a player reaches a milestone game we celebrate. Traditionally this includes running through a banner just before the milestone match.

At the beginning of the season check all your players games player numbers, this can be found in PlayHQ by clicking into the player name. Make note of those that are likely to reach a milestone game in the current season.

4-weeks out from the milestone match, let the player's family know that they will have to organize the banner and any celebration.
