The club began as an adult softball team in 1988 and were initially called the London Millions,[1] after the name of the company which sponsored them.

The adult club began organising and training a separate baseball programme for young people in the Park in 1995 under the name London Meteorites.

The London Mets Youth Baseball Club has rapidly expanded in the past few years.

In 2007 the club's popularity - along with the need to provide development opportunities for older club members - meant that they were able to start a senior team for the first time, which was entered into the BBF National Baseball League - the highest level baseball league in Britain.

In their first season the London Metros finished in 2nd place in the AAA South Group B and won the Wild Card spot in the 2008 BBF National Championship Final 4 with a W18 L8 record.
