We believe Verizon Wireless Arena in New Hampshire provides us a great building and support staff as well as being centrally located within New England,” said Mitchell S. Mortaza, Founder & Chairman, Legends Football League.

New England Liberty will host an Open Tryout on Saturday, December 19, 11:30 a.m. at Turf Time Tewksbury, in Tewksbury, Mass. Click here to receive email updates about tryout information.
