It seems that the NXL is making a few key changes for the players for the 2006 season. The NXL will now include a finals round for each and every tournament with a speculated $30,000 prize at each. This is sure to make alot of those committed to the NXL very happy.
There is also word of the league expanding from 10 to 16 teams and will include the top names in the sport. We have no official word from teams, but you can expect to see alot of the NPPL Pro ranked teams playing in the NXL. The NXL will also be the only place to play unadulterated xball, with the PSP opting to use XBall Lite for lower divisions. It's a great time to be an NXL fan....
In the past few months, everyone has been talking about the NPPL and PSP merger. There is no merger. Regardless of talks between the two, if any, they will not be together for the 2006 season. The NPPL will stick with their 7 man format while the PSP will be using an XBall lite format. The NXL will still travel and be under the PSP umbrella for events.
