The Premier Lacrosse League Championship Series begins July 25, and the 16-day, 20-game tournament will begin with a 14-game group play session ending August 2.
After group play, the field will be seeded. The top-placing team will be handed a bye before an elimination round whittles the field down to four teams. The semifinals and championship game follow.
Last week, the league announced the Championship Series — a fanless, quarantined tournament — will be held at Zions Bank Stadium in Herriman, Utah. Zions Bank Stadium is described as a soccer-specific stadium that can seat 5,000. The stadium is home to the Real Monarchs of the United Soccer League and the Utah Warriors of Major League Rugby.
The tournament is roughly six weeks away, and the PLL announced who will square off in the group play round.
