Big News

Jul, 06 -

It is with mixed emotions the league announces that Dunadan will be stepping down as co-commissioner. He will continue on as NY Knicks GM and tech support. Tim is a co-creator of the league and his incredible design knowledge has made the league what it is today. We are happy he will continue with us in some capacity.

The league is also happy to announce that Proid (aka Craig aka UTH) will be promoted to deputy commissioner. Please take a moment to thank Tim and congratulate Craig before we shutdown for the summer. We are sure that with these moves the NLL will continue stronger and better than ever!

Re-trades Re-set
