The National Lacrosse League and the San Diego Seals recently announced that the Seals\u2019 March 4 game against the Las Vegas Desert Dogs will be staged outside at Snapdragon Stadium, the first regular-season outdoor game in the history of the NLL. The game will be played at 1:30 p.m. and will be broadcast on FOX 5 San Diego and streaming on ESPN+, TSN.ca, and the TSN app. Additionally, the game will re-air the same day on ESPNU at 8 p.m.<\/p>\n
“Our goal for the NLL and for the sport of lacrosse is to continue to increase awareness, enthusiasm, and enterprise value well beyond where it exists today. This epic setting gives us another unique opportunity to showcase our world-class athletes and on-field product, and not only engage with our core audience but attract diverse sports\u2019 fans in search of new entertainment passions,\u201d said Brett Frood, NLL commissioner. \u201cWe are looking forward to working with the Seals and all our supporters in Southern California to make this an event to remember.”<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Seals have been working on this event for a long time now, and we\u2019re very excited to see this idea come to life. It\u2019s crazy that in the 36-year history of the league this has never been done before,\u201d said Seals president Steve Govett. \u201cWe can\u2019t wait to build our box on the field of Snapdragon and play in the San Diego sunshine. Let\u2019s take this outside!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re honored to host the Seals’ first outdoor NLL game,\u201d added Adam Millar, general manager of Snapdragon Stadium. \u201cLooking forward to seeing another amazing San Diego team out on our field, and excited to welcome a whole new set of fans to the stadium!\u201d<\/p>\n
In addition to the Seals-Desert Dogs game on Saturday, Snapdragon Stadium will also be hosting an NCAA women\u2019s lacrosse tournament with two games on Friday and two on Sunday. Teams include San Diego State University, Stanford University, Kent State University, and UC Davis.<\/p>\n
This will be a weekend celebration of lacrosse in San Diego that lacrosse fans around southern California will not want to miss. Broadcast talent and other events connected to the game will be announced in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
Snapdragon Stadium will be scaled for 10,100 seats for the special event. A limited number of tickets for the Snapdragon Showdown are available at SealsLax.com.
