The Minnesota Swarm are on the move to begin "a new chapter in team history" in the Atlanta area.

The Georgia Swarm will play at the 13,000-seat Gwinnett Center in Duluth, Georgia.

The Swarm, which was owned by thr NHL's Minnesota Wild in 2004 before being sold to Arlotta in 2008, once drew as many as 10,000 fans to games.

"The sport of lacrosse is growing at a rapid pace in Georgia and we're thrilled to bring the fastest game on two feet at the professional level to The Arena at Gwinnett Center," said Swarm owner John Arlotta in a statement.

The Swarm missed the playoffs this year but have the first overall pick in this year's draft as well as four of the first six picks.
