The disputes that hindered the North American Lacrosse League (NALL), from launching its inaugural season uneventfully have been resolved. Thus, lacrosse enthusiasts everywhere are eager for the 2013 season to begin.
League activities were temporarily sidetracked in early January 2012 due to attempts from prior team owners to cancel the season. However, during a brief legal battle in Federal Court, the inaugural 2012 season was played on a modified basis. Now, for 2013, all systems are “go” for what appears to be a highly anticipated season. More importantly, the evolution of the league will benefit lacrosse players who want to both learn the box game and focus more heavily on the increasingly popular sport.
Over the past two decades, I’ve seen the sport become more mainstream in America. It’s no longer a niche sport, and most high schools and colleges have now adopted their own programs and provide collegiate scholarships for athletes.
As the NALL is not competing with Major League Lacrosse, pro players who wish to play in an indoor and outdoor league will not be forced to make a choice. At present, the NALL consists of four teams – the Kentucky Stickhorses, Baltimore Bombers, Boston Rockhoppers and Rhode Island Kingfish – ready to hit the turf for the 2013 season, most of which are comprised of United States based NCAA players.
While the league is off to a good start and we’re confident about the progress it has made, we’re still taking a measured approach as the league looks forward to its second season. Given the great level of interest, the league is expected to grow and attract more support. In the meantime however, it’s more focused on evolving properly, rather than sprinting to the finish line.
