Английская Википедия:2020 The Spring League season
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox sports season The 2020 The Spring League season (or TSL Las Vegas) was the fourth overall in league history, which was played in Las Vegas, Nevada. The league was able to get most of its abbreviated 2020 season completed just before social distancing mandates tied to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States took effect, shutting down effectively all in-person sports in the United States. The main competition was played at Sam Boyd Stadium between March 7 to March 11.[1]
For 2020, TSL also played a showcase game against the Japan national American football team[2] at the Ford Center at The Star March 1.[3][4] The team was coached by Terry Shea (HC),[5] Keith Rowen (OL),[6] Samie Parker (WR)[7] and Kevin Smith (DB).[8]
Teams and Players
The designated home team (formerly West) was dubbed the Las Vegas Hughes, named after Howard Hughes, who spent much of the end of his life as a recluse in Las Vegas,[9] while the Austin Generals were slated for return but were scrapped before the season started, and the league fielded only three teams.[10] Zach Mettenberger agreed to return as a quarterback.[11] The registration fee for The Spring League's March 2020 season in Las Vegas were $2,100.[12] According to the league Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys scouts were in attendance.[13]
