Ep. 17 - Sandy Brown
Updated: Oct 9, 2020
"It’s all about best practices. It’s not a question of who’s got a better mousetrap. We’re all trying to get people whatever input we can and share whatever experiences we’ve got so they can use them moving forward."Â
Sandy Brown just led Major League Lacrosse through an eight-day, single venue season during the Coronavirus pandemic. The commissioner shares from his experience of working with players, coaches, owners, sponsors, broadcasters and government officials to develop protocols to be able to carryout the season. Sandy also discusses the value of collaborating with other professional leagues to help find the path forward during this unprecedented year, and how some change brought about by the virus may well stay with MLL in the future.
