Professional lacrosse league scaling from tour-based to home-and-away structure
Premier Lacrosse League operates a professional lacrosse franchise with a marketing-heavy org (15 of 45 active hires) and accelerating hiring velocity across 27 new roles in the last 30 days. The stack is heavily weighted toward creative tools (Adobe suite, Figma, Final Cut Pro) and business intelligence (Tableau, Looker, Power BI, BigQuery) — reflecting a sports business in active transition: migrating from a tour-based touring model to a traditional home-and-away league structure while building out financial dashboards, sales operations, and real-time event execution capabilities.
Premier Lacrosse League is a professional lacrosse organization founded in 2018, headquartered in New York. The league operates as both a content producer (heavy use of Adobe creative tools, video editing software) and a ticketing/partnership business (active projects in ticket marketing, partnership-driven content, and renewal cycle management). Current operational focus spans league operations (tour-to-home transition), player logistics, fan engagement through digital channels (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat), and internal analytics infrastructure. The organization employs 11–50 people with recent expansion into data analytics, sales operations, and financial reporting functions.
PLL uses HubSpot (CRM), Tableau/Looker/Power BI (analytics), Adobe Creative Cloud (Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Lightroom), Figma (design), Asana (project management), BigQuery/SQL (data), and social platforms (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Meta).
Current projects include migrating from tour-based to home-and-away league structure, building financial dashboards and business intelligence infrastructure, developing a PLL mobile app, ticket marketing, sales operations, lacrosse statistics pipelines, and partnership-driven content production.
