Let’s hope the worst is over. Many sports leagues are experiencing slides at the box office. It may not be relevant if you look at the stats but many teams are suffering. Paid tickets have dropped across the board in all leagues including the NFL. The NFL teams are now selling group tickets where for years you couldn't buy a season ticket at many NFL stadiums. Good news is now families and younger adults who didn't have the means to pay for a high price ticket now can get a deal at every major sports venue. That's good news for leagues and teams because they will develop the next generation of fans now.
It may be a silver lining but top team executives need to now start working and be creative to get people to watch the games live.

NATIONAL LACROSSE LEAGUE CHANGES
The NLL is gearing up for another year and there are some changes coming this year. San Jose moves to Everett Washington, my prediction is they double the attendance they had in San Jose. New York moves to Orlando, my prediction Orlando with Steve Donner, former owner of many minor league teams, running the show he takes that franchise to new heights. I think they go from last in attendance in NY to fourth in attendance. Orlando fans will love this sport. The National Lacrosse League has survived where other niche leagues have failed, i.e. AFL, MISL, etc. The NLL is going strong in its’ 24th year. Look for more Canadians team coming on board in the next few years.
