NLL Cancels First Two Weekends Of 18-19 Season

MEDIA ADVISORY

November 15, 2018

LEAGUE STATEMENT:

The League suspended it’s 5:00pm deadline yesterday to allow the PLPA to provide a new counterproposal. After a thorough review of the PLPA’s counterproposal, it is clear we cannot accept the terms the PLPA has put forward, and therefore, have made a decision to reject it. We believe those terms would have both short and long term negative consequences on our member clubs and the League which we are not willing to accept. Therefore, there is not yet an agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement. 

With respect to the upcoming season, the PLPA has instructed its players not to attend training camps or submit to physicals, making the formation of rosters and operation of the opening of the season impossible.

Therefore, and regrettably, because of the PLPA’s current position, the first two weekends of the 2018-19 season, which includes Toronto Rock away games on December 1 (at Buffalo) and December 8, 2018, (at Vancouver) are cancelled. 

We will provide further communications on the 2018-19 schedule as updates become available.
