NLL_Team_Capsules Knowpia

The National Lacrosse League (NLL) is a professional men's indoor lacrosse league in North America. It currently has 15 teams; 5 in Canada and 10 in the United States. Unlike the Canadian box lacrosse leagues which play in the summer, the NLL plays its games in the winter and spring, from December to June. Each year, the playoff teams battle for the Champion's Cup. A complete summary of NLL teams' performance is below.^[1]
