About Lobo League Lobo League is a volleyball league operated by the Women's Volleyball program at the University of New Mexico. The first Lobo League season was in the spring of 1988 and had 24 teams. It has since grown to nearly 200 teams in 8 coed divisions, 7 women's divisions, and 5 men's divisions. Matches are only played on Saturday and Sunday nights with match times of 5:30, 6:40, 7:50, and 9:00pm. All matches are played in the Johnson Center at the University of New Mexico. The Johnson Center has 13 courts in 3 gyms. The league is open to anyone in the Albuquerque and surrounding area. Lobo League runs in the fall, spring, and summer. The fall and spring seasons are the largest with usually around 180-200 teams; the summer season usually has approximately 40 teams. During the fall and spring seasons teams play 10 regular season matches with a post-season tournament. The summer season is a bit shorter with teams playing 8 regular season matches and no post-season tournament. Play is three games to 30 with rally scoring. Tournament play is best two-out-of-three games with rally scoring to 20. Lobo League was started for two reasons: to encourage volleyball players in the Albuquerque area to attend the UNM Women's Volleyball matches, and to provide a fundraiser for the UNM Women's Volleyball team. In both regards league has been a huge success. Over the past 10 years UNM has been among the top teams in the nation in attendance. The Lobo League also helps UNM Volleyball pay for equipment and make trips it would not be able to make if Lobo League did not exist.
