Has anyone heard about it? I just found out about it. As the "Pro" side of this sport grows would OSC have a forum to cover it?

According to the Spinners Facebook page it will be a "East and West Coast league"

New website and videos and articles on the sport and what the league is hoping to do.

Two divisions with a 60 game schedule. Top team in each division goes to the Championship.

Looks like this league started last spring and has one year under their belt.

So, the AUDL will have two season to the MUL's one season in the spring. Also looks like the owner of the Philly Spinners started the MUL after his team won the Championship in the AUDL last spring. Connecticut has a team named "The Constitution" and are not in the AUDL or the MUL.

The MLU is having a logo contest for the teams in both conferences.
The logo with the most likes will be the winner.

I'm not sure which league will get a greater audience and more followers, but I like the direction the sport is going. Anyone else planning on watching or going to a game? I'm starting a club team for a local High School. I'd like to check out some games on line and get the kids interested in making it a career, or playing in college and beyond.

Well, the MLU has started their season and it looks like all is running smooth, except the sound on the live feed...oh well. Hope this gets more press and the discussion here will grow. Enjoy

Season has started for both leagues and it looks like both are off to a great start. This article from Chicago covers Brodie Smith and the AUDL.

If both leagues can be stable and grow maybe there could be a championship game between the top teams of the MLU and the AUDL.
