Pointstreak PRO essentially replaces paper gamesheets with touch-screen terminals or laptops to collect statistical information as it happens during lacrosse games. MLL game scores and other statistical information are then broadcast over the Internet via www.majorleaguelacrosse.com to any online computer in the world. Most importantly for MLL fans and the media, Pointstreak PRO will provide up-to-date and detailed statistics for their favorite team as well as individual game results in true real-time. “The MLL is excited to provide the benefits of Pointstreak PRO to the fans and media partners of the MLL. We are confident Pointstreak PRO will provide the most advanced technology and fan friendly experience via the MLL website, www.majorleaguelacrosse.com”, explained Dave Gross, Commissioner of the MLL. “Pointstreak is proud to have been chosen by Major League Lacrosse as its official real-time scoring and statistics provider and we believe this decision continues to demonstrate that MLL is constantly committed to improving the quality of the league for the players, fans and media partners”, said Scott Secord , President/CEO of Pointstreak . Lacrosse is a unique blend of fast-paced, high scoring, hard-hitting action which has made it the fastest growing team sport in the United States . In lock step with this growth, Major League Lacrosse (MLL) was successfully launched in June 2001 as a single entity ownership structure to showcase the best professional outdoor lacrosse in the world. In 2006 Major League Lacrosse became truly a “national league” when it welcomed the Chicago Machine, Denver Outlaws, Los Angeles Riptide and the San Francisco Dragons into the MLL. The new teams formed the Western Conference while the six original teams – Baltimore Bayhawks, Boston Cannons, Long Island Lizards, New Jersey Pride, Philadelphia Barrage and Rochester Rattlers will be members of the Eastern Conference. Pointstreak is the leading provider of real-time scoring and advanced league administration and statistical systems for lacrosse organizations. Pointstreak 's product line includes solutions for amateur and recreational lacrosse and hockey leagues as well as for professional, collegiate and junior leagues. Pointstreak is the official real-time scoring and statistics company to the 2006 World Lacrosse Championships, the National Lacrosse League and the Western Lacrosse League. Media Contacts: |
