MAJOR LEAGUE LACROSSE - MLL

Major League Lacrosse - MLL is professional men's field lacrosse. With some of the very best Lacrosse athletes in the world. The MLL plays a very exciting and entertaining style of lacrosse. The game is extremely fast paced with some unique rules like a 2 point shot line and 60 second shot clock. I absolutely love the field version that the MLL plays and if you are lucky enough to be in an area that has a team, I highly recommend that you attend a game in your area which are played from April through August with playoffs and a championship game held at the end of the season. This is another super smart aspect of the MLL and that is that it doesnt interfere with the regular field season for the rest of lacrosse which means it is the only lacrosse game in town when it is going.
The league was formed in 1999 and played its first regular season game in 2001. It started with 6 teams all in the north east: Boston, Bridgeport, Long Island, Baltimore, New Jersey and Rochester. Bridgeport ultimately moved to Philadelphia in 2004 and Baltimore moved to Washington in 2006...

Unfortunately the league still greatly lacks a West Coast presence, and remains (with the exception of Denver) an east coast oriented league.
