Retirements after season
The following players retired after the 2023 season:
Brodie Merrill (LSM) - Widely considered the greatest long-stick midfielder of all time, announced he was retiring from professional lacrosse on September 13, 2023. He graduated from Georgetown in 2005 where he won the Schmeisser Award, an award given to the top defenseman in NCAA lacrosse, during the 2005 season. He retires as the all-time leader in professional field lacrosse games played (200), and is tied with face-off specialist Greg Gurenlian for the most ground balls won (1,120). He is the namesake for the Brodie Merrill Long Stick Midfielder of the Year award, which is the only award to be named after a player that was active when the award was named. He is the highest scoring longpole in field lacrosse history scoring 146 points (51 goals, 4 two-point goals, 87 assists). He is a 10-time all-star, won the rookie of the year award in the MLL in 2005, and won six straight defensive player of the year awards in the MLL (2006-2011). He won three MLL championships (2005, 2008, 2009). He played for five Canadian National Teams where he won gold in 2006 and 2024, and won silver in 2010, 2018, and 2023. Over the course of his 18-year field lacrosse career he played for four MLL teams: the Baltimore Bayhawks (2005), the Rochester Rattlers (2006-2008), the Toronto/Hamilton Nationals (2009-2013) and the Boston Cannons (2014-2018). He also played for three PLL teams: Chaos LC (2019), Waterdogs LC (2020), and Cannons LC (2021-2023). Merrill did not play during the 2023 PLL season and was placed on the holdout list by the Cannons before the season started.[31][32][33]
Kyle Hartzell (LSM & D) - On September 18, 2023 Hartzell announced his retirement from professional lacrosse in an Instagram post. He finishes his lacrosse career as a two-time MLL champion, the first, and as of 2023 only defenseman to win the championship MVP award when he did so in 2010, a one-time all-pro, a seven-time all-star, a team USA silver medalist in 2014 and a gold medalist in 2018. He was also the fastest shot champion twice and at one point held the world record for fastest shot at 111 MPH. He holds the record for most points in a season scored by a defenseman at 21, and also holds the record for the most two-point goals in a season with 9.
Jordan MacIntosh (M) - On October 17, 2023 MacIntosh announced his retirement from the PLL in an Instagram post. He retires as a two-time all-star and 2022 recipient of the PLL Leadership award. He was also Chrome's captain.
The shot clock was reduced from 52 seconds to 32 seconds following possession gained from faceoffs and offensive rebounds which trigger a shot clock restart. The 52-second shot clock remained for other possession changes such as a defensive stop. This rule change was met with criticism throughout the league by individuals such as Atlas coach Mike Pressler. Proponents of the rule argue it is designed to encourage face-off specialists to be more well-rounded players.[35] The rule change has also driven teams such as the Waterdogs, Cannons, and Chrome to not dress a faceoff specialist.[36][37]
The two-point arc was reduced from 15 yards to 13 yards on either side of the goal line extended. The 15-yard distance remained for the top center, top left, and top right locations. This change is similar to the three-point line in basketball which also has closer corners.
The number of full 60-second timeouts for each team per game was reduced from three to two. Each team now has one 30-second timeout as well.
On May 19, National Lacrosse Hall of Famer and namesake for the PLL's MVP award, Jim Brown died. Brown was most well known for his NFL career (where he achieved a Hall of Fame career as well) but is considered to be one of the best lacrosse players of all time. During his time at Syracuse University, Brown was an All-American in both football and lacrosse. In 2011, Brown became the first recipient of the Tewaaraton Legacy Award, an award given to outstanding players that played collegiate lacrosse prior to the introduction of the Tewaaraton Award in 2001. In 2012, Brown was part of an ownership group that purchased the New York Lizards of the MLL.[38][39][40]

Chaos Lacrosse Club (who had lost to Whipsnakes LC earlier in the day) and Waterdogs Lacrosse Club (who would not play until the day after) both clinched the playoffs[66] after Archers LC defeated Chrome LC 13 to 5. Once Chrome hit 7 losses, it became impossible for them to reach 4 wins and so it would be impossible for them to pass either Chaos or Waterdogs in the standings.
Atlas Lacrosse Club clinched the final playoff spot during the last week of the regular season when Chaos Lacrosse Club defeated Chrome Lacrosse Club by a score of 13 to 7. This also eliminated Chrome from the playoffs. Coming into the final week of the regular season the Atlas and the Chrome were seventh and eighth on the standings respectively with only the eighth place team missing the playoffs. The Atlas had 2 wins and 7 losses with a -15 goal differential, the Chrome had 1 win and 8 losses with a -32 goal differential. In order to make the playoffs, the Atlas needed to win or they could lose so long as the Chrome did not win while surpassing them in goal differential (being tied in goal differential would have given the playoff position to the Atlas since they defeated the Chrome twice in the regular season). Both teams would go on to lose their final regular season games and Atlas made the playoffs.[69]
The Waterdogs' Connor Kelly scored three two-point goals, becoming the 12th ever professional lacrosse player to do so in one game.[71]
The 37 combined goals in the Waterdogs 19-18 win against the Atlas are the most ever in a single game in PLL history. Surpassing the previous record of 36 set in Week 9 of the 2019 PLL season between the Chrome and Whipsnakes.
Week 4 - Minneapolis
The Cannons' Marcus Holman scored his 300th career goal.[36]
The Chrome's Connor Farrell recorded his 500th career faceoff win.[72]
All-Star Game and Skills Challenges - Louisville
Jarrod Neumann set a PLL record in the fastest shot competition with a 121 MPH shot.[73]
The 37 combined goals in the Archers 19-18 win against the Waterdogs tied the most combined goals ever in a PLL game, tying the record set in Week 3 of the 2023 PLL season in the game between the Waterdogs and Atlas.
Week 8 - Baltimore
Highest attended two-day event in league history. Event on August 5 was sold-out.[45][44]
The Waterdogs scored a 2023 season single-game high 4 two-point goals in their 13 to 8 victory over Chaos LC.[75]
The Redwoods'Rob Pannell recorded his 268th career assist, breaking a tie with Joe Walters and putting him at second all-time on the assist leaderboard. The only player with more assists than him is 2023 Professional Lacrosse Hall of Fame inductee Ryan Boyle.[76]

Uniforms
New Champion uniforms
For the 2023 PLL season each team was given a new set of uniforms developed by Champion. These uniforms replaced the uniforms that were made by Adidas. Champion began its partnership with the PLL in 2021 as the Official Sideline Partner, but in February, 2022 it was announced that Champion would begin making on-field apparel as well. No teams changed colorways during the change.[3][89][90] The Waterdogs were given an alternate black jersey with gold trim as a reward for being PLL Champions. It is the first third jersey in the PLL. They wore the jerseys week one.[4]
Of the eight teams, only two, the Cannons and the Chrome, do not have sponsorship patches on their regular jerseys. The other six teams have the following:[91][92]
During week four of the PLL season in Minneapolis, the PLL hosted Indigenous Heritage Weekend. As part of the celebrations each team wore limited jerseys that had been designed by Patrick Hunter—a two-spiritOjibwe artist. Portions of the proceeds of the jersey sales went to benefit Anishinaabe Baagaadoewin, a non-profit dedicated to sharing Anishinaabe history and culture.[93]
Alongside the thunderbird depicted on the jersey, each jersey had a Anishinaabe thunderbird patch on the left sleeve meant to represent power and strength for those wearing it. The shorts worn by players also included a thunderbird feather design. There was also had a PLL medicine wheel patch on each jersey. Lastly, there was an Every Child Matters patch on each jersey, an organization that raises awareness and honors for indigenous families and victims of the residential school systems.[94]
Throwback uniforms
On August 9, 2023 the PLL unveiled a new set of throwback jerseys. The jerseys are "porthole mesh" style jerseys. The jerseys were worn during week eight of the PLL season in Denver.[95] During the 2022 season the PLL also wore throwback uniforms during the leagues week eight stop in Denver.[96] Each of the teams sponsored jersey patches remained on their throwback jerseys.
Alongside the jerseys the PLL unveiled throwback logos for each team as well. The logos were featured on both the jerseys and the shorts.
2023 PLL All-Star Game
The 2023 PLL All-Star Game was held at Dr. Mark & Cindy Lynn Stadium in Louisville, Kentucky, on Saturday, July 22, 2023. Differing from previous years, this year's All-Star Game featured a team of "Veterans" and a team of "Rising Stars" as selected by fan vote. The "Rising Stars" team was composed of players with less than four years of professional seasons, and the "Veterans" team was composed of players with four or more professional seasons. Rising Stars was coached by Waterdogs coach Andy Copeland and Redwoods coach Nat St. Laurent. The Veterans were coached by Chaos coach Andy Towers and Chrome coach Tim Soudan.[97]
The Veterans defeated the Rising Stars 26 to 19. Will Manny was named MVP with 7 points (2 goals, 5 assists).
Before the game, there were four skills competitions: freestyle competition (score in the most unique way), accuracy challenge (score with accuracy, precision, and efficiency of shooting; players score points by hitting targets), goalie skills challenge (goalies score points by making saves and clearing the ball to different locations), and the fastest shot competition.
