The fees for the league have got to be low, I honestly don't see how these teams are surviving. Harrisburg is getting better attendance numbers but if you add it all up they are still in the hole every year. The Blast have cut key salaries since the move to secu and continue to play with older players. Florida was a wide open market and only 3 players got signed, That is not good at all.
Harrisburg is doing what, now? 2014-2015 - 2,989 average 2015-2016 - 2,029 2016-2017 - 1,449 2017-2018 - 1,459 2018-2019 - 2,194 2019-2020 - 2,468 2021- Opted out 2021-2022 - 1,470 2022-2023 - 1,471
Which is amazing considering there are only 1,250 seats and at least half of them are usually empty. EDIT: I just found another site that says it's 1,660 seats. But even the game they said was a sellout I doubt there were 1,200 people there even based on this capacity.
Aren’t there multiple fields in their arena? If you use both, it could be harder to determine attendance based on capacity.
Don't they use the smaller of the two venues within that complex? Didn't they start at the Equine Arena (smaller one) when they came back into existence, then try the New Holland Arena (larger one) for a bit before moving back? I don't know that they've used both during one season, have they?
There is only one field in the Equine Arena where they play now. That annex is attached to the old building, but there are separate arenas.

The Fees Have to be super low to play in the MASL2, The Baltimore Arsonal will play before the Blast Game takes place., This is included in your Ticket price for the Blast game. from what i am hearing. I am also hearing that the blast have been working on a big trade but i'll believe that when i see it happen.
I'm sure they'll have a huge crowd on Easter Sunday playing Orlando for the 4th time in 9 days at home and no Blast game.
Playoff format is out. top 4 in each Conference. 1 v4 and 2 v 3 first round match-ups, all home and home
MASL to Launch Three-Man Referee System Pilot Program https://www.maslsoccer.com/news/mas...Ol12ywfGVV5kd-WT1QUFVw2F4FwvB4U27DLknoOsBHZK0 It'll be tested during each team's first two home games.
If you saw any of the Pro Combine matches from Utica, you could see that they were testing it out there too.
I think they should just leave 2 on the floor and use the 3rd official in the box and allow him to make calls also. This leaves the floor space alone. What are they going to do next play 5 on 5 instead of 6 on 6.
Technically, the assistant referee off the field can make calls, but they are usually limited to "too many men" and three line violations. When hockey went to an additional official on the ice, did it cause more problems with less space? I don't think that it did.
Having 15 People on these small floors make no sense. You are going to see more smaller floors added as teams can get better dates on a college campus and smaller arenas, Most teams cant even get 4K a game so these 15K seat arenas are no longer needed.
