This page has no references and so does not establish sports notability or general notability. Since the league has not yet begun playing, any claim of notability is either crystal ball gazing or based on pre-inaugural controversy (none described).

Keep Laxer921: I have added 11 highly creditable references to the page. Please consider the buzz and that the top 140 current professional players have signed contracts with this new league providing Salary, health benefits, 401K benefits, etc. It has generated the most buzz the Lacrosse community has seen and should be published. It was featured in Bloomberg, MSN, NBC Sports, Inside Lacrosse, US Lacrosse, Lacrosse Magazine, Business Journals, Barstool Sports. The founders were also interviewed on Wall Street. I recommend publishing the page.

Keep I actually just read an article on this league in a major sports source this morning: [1] It's probably a bit too fresh since it was just announced, but likely already passes WP:GNG. SportingFlyer talk 22:33, 25 October 2018 (UTC) EDIT: It does need significant cleanup as it likely fails WP:PROMO, so I'd be fine with draftifying this.

Keep Plenty of sources to pass GNG. Regardless of the current state of the article, AFD is not cleanup. Smartyllama (talk) 20:25, 26 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
