About the MABLL
|
|
|
The MABLL
was founded in 1975 by Byron Snyder who was a fan of the Maryland
Arrows of the original National Lacrosse League. The league
began play at the Bowie Ice Rink and moved to the College Park Ice
Arena in 1978. In 1986, long time player Don West moved the
league to Sports Network in Manassas, Virginia. In the fall of 2006,
the league moved to its current home at Dulles SportsPlex and will
be moving to "The BOX" arena in the winter of 2006. Indoor lacrosse has undergone many changes
over the years and participation has dropped from its height in the late
90's. With the re-emergence of the MABLL, box lacrosse can once
thrive in the DC area.
The league hopes to expand to the high school and youth divisions
in the future which will bring box lacrosse to the masses.
Often maligned as not "REAL" lacrosse, the box game is a
viable and self-sustaining sport that adds to the overall enjoyment
of the game of lacrosse.The league plays at The BOX Inline Hockey
Arena in Chantilly, VA. The BOX is the newest indoor arenas in the Washington, DC
area and is also one of the areas largest. With a 185' x 85'
playing surface, regulation box lacrosse goals, dasher boards and
and IceCourt flooring, its is the perfect place for box lacrosse in
the DC area.
