Video games

In May 2001, Blast Lacrosse, a video game based on the NLL, was released. It was the first lacrosse video game ever and included all 9 teams from the 2001 NLL's 15th season.
On February 15, 2005, the NLL announced that Activision would produce a new video game. The game was slated to be released for the 2007 season.[35] In an online chat held on NLL.com with commissioner Jim Jennings, it was noted that the game would be out in 2009,[36] but the game was never released.
On March 31, 2010, the NLL announced it had partnered with Crosse Studio and Triple B Games to develop NLL Lacrosse 2010 presented by Reebok Lacrosse. The game was released exclusively on the Xbox 360 as an Indie Game on April 23, 2010.[24] Crosse Studio and Triple B Games developed Inside Lacrosse's College Lacrosse 2010 in 2009 before approaching the NLL to license their next game.[37] The NLL game won Kotaku's Indie Sports video game of the year for 2010.

Player origins

Although 5 of the league's 9 teams are based in the United States, approximately 75% of league players are from Canada.[38] The remaining 25% of league players are from the United States, Australia, various countries within Europe, and the Iroquois (considered a separate nation for the purpose of international competition).[citation needed]
