December 31 League Update

The National Lacrosse League (NLL) and NLLPA shared the following statement Monday afternoon in regards to its postponement of Week 5 contests:

“We have been in constant contact with authorities, media, and business partners and officials on both sides of the border monitoring developments up to the minute. With that information, we feel it is in the best interests of all to reschedule the three games we have this coming weekend until later in the season.

We do this out of an abundance of caution which will keep the competitive balance of our league in place while making sure that our number one priority is, and always will be, the health and safety of our athletes, our coaches, our staff, and our fans.

We expect to play week 6 of the season on January 7-8, 2022, and we will update if there are any changes based on this fluid and complex situation.”
