In 2011, the league changed its name to Liga Ibérica de Lacrosse as Portuguese team ACM Coimbra participated in two stages of the league.[1]

2016–17

The 2016–17 Liga Española de Lacrosse was the 7th edition of the main Spanish Lacrosse League. For this edition, the old division between LEL and LEL2 was abolished and a new competition system was instated. The seven teams were divided into two conferences:

  • Eastern Conference: Alicante Barefoots, Cuenca Lacrosse and Barcelona Dracs
  • Western Conference: Lisboa Gladiators, Sevilla Lacrosse, Madrid Lacrosse and Montes Lacrosse

Each team would play home and away against the other two teams of its conference and will play also one more game home and other away against two different teams, totalling six games played per team. The inter-conference games were decided taking the distance of the teams as main criteria.[2]

The seven first qualified teams overall will qualify directly to the quarterfinals while the two bottom teams will play themselves a previous game to qualify.

Regular season started on 29 October 2016 and ended on 22 April 2017.
