Fate of a Sport

If you're a lacrosse fan, you will love this documentary. If you aren't, you will be after you watch.

Fate Of A Sport is an incredible documentation of how the PLL came to be, and gives you an inside look into the life of the sports greatest player. Watching this takes you behind the scenes of the league and shows all the challenges they overcame to make the PLL a reality. From raising capital and recruiting players, to navigating the league through the pandemic and social movements of 2020, this documentary shows how amazing the leagues journey has been, and how hard the Rabil brothers and everyone else involved has worked.

Wow. Incredible film that truly showcases the beautiful game of lacrosse for the hardcore fans of the sport, casuals and people who've never picked up a stick. Fate of a Sport tells a true story of how the Rabil brothers revived pro lacrosse.

Players were practicing in parking lots, going to gas stations to get ice for their bodies and playing games at high school stadiums. Mike and Paul Rabil said enough is enough and it's time for a change. Watch how they build a modern professional sports league from the ground up during one of the toughest times our country has experienced in recent memory.

When I first discovered the PLL I was at the end of my sophomore season and at an all time low with my love for the sport. I decided to give the PLL a try and purchased NBC gold.

Even though my Chrome men lost their opening game I knew the PLL was going to be something special. And once again my love for the sport of lacrosse was sparked but this time as a fan. I have watched nearly every PLL game since.

To be able to go back and go on a journey with the Rabil brothers watching them build this league into what it is was truly an emotional experience as I grew up with the league.

And to the Rabil brothers, thank you for all you've done I have had my disagreements with the leagues process but I have always had so much admiration for the PLL pushing forward the sport and the culture of lacrosse as a whole. Lacrosse is for everyone and it's amazing to see the fan base growing more and more everyday becoming more diverse and exciting.

This was an absolute pleasure to watch and I will always love the PLL and my Chrome boys. And Paul what you've done has changed the sport forever, and thank you for putting everything on the line Can't wait to see what the future holds as my playing days are also done too, and I'm excited to just be a fan of the sport o love so much.

Can we get a Chrome LC movie next though??

Was lucky enough to attend the premier in Los Angeles.. but still waited up to watch it on release day.

This documentary provides an awesome look into the building process of the next great American sports league. Thorough interviews were conducted to present all sides of the story, different perspectives, and great context... BUT the documentary didn't rely on the interviews to tell the story. The years of behind-the-scenes cinematography allows the viewer to feel like a fly on the wall.. almost like they are building the league as well.

You feel the pain and the glory with the Rabil brothers. It's a roller coaster of a few years beautifully condensed into a few hours. Definitely worth the watch! Go PLL.

Excellent documentary. The film touched on so many different levels; family, business development, sports, and history. The subjects interviewed, from Adam Silver to Bill Belichick all brought unique perspectives to the screen and helped illustrate how fascinating both the league and the process to create it have been. The piece was digestible for fans of lacrosse and audiences who have never seen the sport, and it has the potential to resonate with all viewers. The raw and emotional behind the scenes footage give it an extraordinarily authentic and vulnerable feel, and by films's end all watchers can't help but root for this league, this sport, and these brothers. Can't wait to watch more of the PLL.
