The PLL Keeps Setting Records

Balancing life as a co-founder and player has been an ongoing challenge since we started the PLL three years ago...but a rewarding one at that.?

Three weeks into our third season, I’m happy to report that the league continues to grow in leaps and bounds.?

Some of the numbers across our first two weeks (week 3 numbers still coming in):

• +162% Peacock live minutes streamed in Week 1
• +132% Peacock total minutes streamed in Week 1
• 93.5% increase in tickets sold over our first two weekends
• 55.1M social impressions

As a digital first property, we’re thrilled to see the increase in consumption on Peacock. This is a strong representation of the audience we’ve built over the last three years and the way this audience consumes live sports.?

As a player on the field, having fans back in the arena has been truly energizing for the league, our players and the atmosphere at our games. Side note: if you want to experience the best live lacrosse in-person, be sure to get yourself and your friends to a game [TICKETS]. It was phenomenal to hear in our weekly TMM yesterday that we’ve set a record pace for ticket sales this season, up 93.5% from our inaugural season in 2019.

We have 8 game weekends remaining and we’re taking the tour all over the U.S.

Adding to the on-field experience, and despite our record not showing for it, this Cannons Lacrosse Club is really coming together. Hard for an expansion team to gel quickly, we're ranked second in the PLL on score differential, with each of our losses coming by 1 goal. Though without wins to show for it, stats are only...stats. So here's to turning some of those 1 goal games into the win column for the boys, and more SportsCenter top plays...

I take tremendous pride in building awareness around the game, and helping get the word out to a wider audience whenever possible. Last week's appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers was a dream. Never would I have thought I would be talking lacrosse on set of a Late Night show...and here we are. Social clip below, with the full interview here.

I can say with certainty that the standard of pro lacrosse has never been higher than it is this season in the PLL.

The competition for roster spots is more intense than ever before, and the on-field product is something we're incredibly proud of.

We've brought in amazing new league partners like DraftKings, Public.com, HEX Detergent and Bose, accompanying our blue chip partners like Ticketmaster, Gatorade, Adidas, Progressive Insurance, Vineyard Vines and more.

To our fans, players, coaches, staff and partners, thank you for your support in getting this season off to a great start. We’ll continue to take the game to new heights as we keep the show rolling all summer long.

Yours in the journey,

Paul
