NLL INformation Introduction to the NLL The National Lacrosse League Guide and Record Book profiles the League’s history, and sets the scene for the 2011 season, the 25th season of professional indoor lacrosse. The league played its inaugural game in January of 1987, and was first known as the Eagle Pro Box Lacrosse League. In 1988, the name was changed to the Major Indoor Lacrosse League (MILL). The MILL became the National Lacrosse League (NLL) following the 1997 season. All of the statistics and records in this book encompass all 24 seasons of the league’s existence. Therefore, a League Record is one that covers all three names and the league’s entire 24-year history. A complete timeline of the major events in league history can be found in this book. The National Lacrosse League plays indoor lacrosse. The game is a hybrid, combining parts of box lacrosse (played inside the confines of an ice hockey rink on a turf surface or concrete surface, more prevalent in Canada) with field lacrosse (played on an outdoor field, either on grass or turf, more prevalent in the United States). Indoor lacrosse was designed to combine the most exciting elements of box and field lacrosse. The game is played inside the confines of an ice hockey rink, with glass and rink boards intact. The playing surface is artificial turf, which is placed directly over the arena’s ice surface. Each team plays with five runners and a goaltender. The combination of the confined playing area and the physical play leads many fans to describe indoor lacrosse as “like hockey, on foot, with more scoring.” 25 goals are scored in the average NLL game. Indoor lacrosse is similar to basketball in terms of its frequent scoring, use of a shot clock (30 seconds), and use of the over-and-back rule. When teams are on offense, they often spread the floor and pass the ball around in a manner similar to that of basketball. The NLL game is also played in four quarters, each 15 minutes in length. Games that are tied at the end of regulation are decided in overtime, where the first team to score wins the game. There are no tie games and there are no points or credit awarded for an “overtime loss” in the NLL. The standings and team records are strictly Wins-Losses. Each team plays a 16-game regular season schedule. The NLL schedule is structured in a similar fashion to that of the National Football League. All games are played on the weekends. The weekends of the schedule are numbered. Opening weekend of the season is Week #1. As the League has grown, so has the schedule. Here is a look at schedule growth in recent League history:
1996: 10-game schedule 2001: 14-game schedule
1997: 12-game schedule 2002: 16-game schedule
The Champion’s Cup Playoffs are single-game elimination. An explanation of the Playoff Format can be found on the next page.

NLL INformation 2011 Division and Playoff Formats The 10 active member clubs are divided into two divisions: East Division Boston Blazers Buffalo Bandits Philadelphia Wings Rochester Knighthawks Toronto Rock
West Division Calgary Roughnecks Colorado Mammoth Edmonton Rush Minnesota Swarm Washington Stealth
The following is the format for NLL post-season. All playoff games are single elimination. 1. The top four teams in each division shall earn playoff berths. Each division champion faces the fourth place finisher from their division. The second place finisher in each division faces the third place finisher from their division in the Division Semifinals. Each game is hosted by the higher-seeded team. 2. In the Divisional Finals, the winner of the first vs. fourth place Divisional Semifinal game faces the winner of the second vs. third place Divisional Semifinal game in each division respectively. Each game is hosted by the higher-seeded team. 3. The Divisional Final winners shall meet in the 2010 Championship Game (East vs. West) with the higher overall seed hosting the game. 4. In the event of a tiebreaker involving three or more clubs, divisional tiebreakers shall be first applied to break ties of clubs within the division. Overall tiebreakers shall then be applied between the top seeded tied club of each division. Tiebreakers will then be re-applied between the loser of that tiebreaker and the next seeded club with the same record. (Example B, C & D below). Divisional Tiebreakers: The following is the tiebreaking procedure for clubs having identical won-lost records at the conclusion of the regular season within their division, to determine the order of finish and seeding within the division. a) Head-to-head record during the regular season (best won-lost percentage in games between tied clubs) b) Win-loss percentage against divisional opponents c) Win-loss record against common opponents played an equal number of times during the regular season. d) Goals for/goals (most net points) against in head-to-head match-ups. e) Per-game goal differential (goals for minus goals against, divided by games played) within Division f) Total goals for/goals (most net points) against for the regular season. g) Coin toss. (Note: Only one club advances to the playoffs in any tie-breaking step. Remaining tied clubs revert to the first step of the tiebreakers. As an example, if two clubs remain tied in any tiebreaker step after all other clubs have been eliminated, the procedure reverts back to tiebreaker A to determine the winner. When one club wins the tiebreaker, all other clubs revert to tiebreaker A.) (Example A below). Overall Tiebreakers: The following is the tie-breaking procedure for clubs having identical won-lost records at the conclusion of the regular season to determine the order of finish and seeding: a) Head-to-head record during the regular season(best won-lost percentage in games between tied clubs) b) Win-loss record against common opponents played an equal number of games during the regular season. c) Goals for/goals (most net points) against in head-to-head match-ups. d) Total goals for/goals against (most net points) for the regular season. e) Coin toss.

NLL INformation Lacrosse Talk Assist - Awarded to the player or players (maximum of two) who touched the ball prior to the goal, provided no defender plays or possesses the ball in between. Body Check - Slowing or stopping an opponent in possession of the ball. The check must be above the waist and below the shoulders. Breakaway - One-on-one scoring opportunity with the offensive player and the goaltender. Cradling (the ball) - The back and forward motion of the stick with the ball in the pocket. The cradling keeps the ball inside the pocket, making it difficult for the defender to dislodge or take it away. Crease - Nine-foot radius area which surrounds the goals at each end of the playing surface. A goal is disallowed if a player scores while standing inside this area or steps on the line that defines the crease. Cross Check - Using the shaft of the stick between his hands, the defensive player tries to push on the opponent’s arm forcing a poor pass or shot. Face-Off - At the start of the game, any quarter of play, and after a goal is scored, the ball is placed in the center circle and two opposing players face each other in a scrum of possession. Goal - Awarded to the last player on the scoring club to touch the ball prior to the ball entering the net. Hidden Ball Play - A player without the ball starts to cradle his stick drawing the attention of the defense while another teammate candidly passes the ball or shoots on net. Loose Ball - There is no possession and the ball is bouncing, rolling or rebound off the boards or goaltender. Loose balls are also sometimes referred to as ground balls. Major Penalty - Five minutes in length. Penalty time expires on the scoring of two goals, but penalized player must remain in penalty box for full five minutes. Man Down - A team is considered this, or short-handed, when they must send out a four- or three-man unit as a result of having one or two of their players in the penalty box.
Penalty Box - Off-field area, near midfield, where players serve penalty time. Pick - Legal interference by an offensive player from a set position on a defensive player who is playing defense on the ball carrier. If two players execute the pick, it is referred to as a double pick. Power Play - When a team has a(n extra) man advantage because of a penalty situation against the opposing team. Power plays can take the form of five-on-four, five-on-three, or four-on-three. Following are some examples of what is and is not considered a power-play goal: • If a club has an advantage on a minor penalty starting at 2:02 of the quarter and it scores at 4:02, the goal is not a power-play goal. • If a club scores on a delayed penalty, the goal is not a power-play goal. • If a club has an advantage due to a five-minute major penalty, that club is always credited with having one more advantage than the number of power-play goals it scores during that advantage; because the penalty does not expire, a new advantage begins after such a power-play goal. For example, if Team A scores one goal during a major penalty, it is credited with two advantages. • If a club is on a power play for any length of time, it is considered to have had an advantage. • A double minor constitutes two opportunities. Screen Shot - A shot on goal that is difficult for the goaltender to see because of the high amount of player traffic in front of the crease area. Short-Handed Goal - scored by a club while it is at a manpower disadvantage due to a penalty. Shot On Goal - if a player shoots the ball with the intention of scoring and if that shot would have gone in the net had the goaltender not stopped it, the shot is recorded as a shot “on goal”. Shots which hit either of the goalposts or the crossbar are also credited as a shot on goal. Technical Penalty - Result in loss of possession of the ball. Minor violation; no time penalty. Tenths Of A Second - if a penalty or goal occurs in the last minute of a quarter, the time is rounded off to the previous second (i.e. - if a penalty is called with 14.6 seconds left in the quarter, the time is indicated as 14:45, and not 14:46.
Minor Penalty - Two minutes in length. Penalty expires upon the scoring of a goal; penalized player returns to floor. Offensive Screen - Legal action by an attacking player to impede the defensive coverage of a defender on an attacking player “without” possession of the ball. Outlet Pass - The first pass from the goaltender that begins the transition from defense to offense.
