The Dallas Rattlers, a Frisco-based Major League Lacrosse team, transitioned ownership from New Balance Inc. back to the league.

MLL confirmed the transition in a statement published Oct. 9:

"This move was contemplated as part of the league restructuring that occurred earlier this year. The league will continue to operate the team and is currently in discussion with new ownership candidates. This transition is not an unprecedented event, for the league has previously operated franchises under the same construct. The league looks forward to the Dallas Rattlers competing for an MLL Championship in 2020."

The MLL team, once known as the Rochester Rattlers, announced its move to Frisco and name change in 2017. The team's games are held at the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, the multipurpose facility that serves as the practice facility for the Dallas Cowboys.

The Dallas Rattlers finished the 2019 season 7-9, according to MLL standings.
