The National Pro Grid League (NPGL) was a short-lived but influential GRID sport league that ran from 2014 to 2016. Founded by Tony Budding, NPGL brought a high-energy racing format branded as GRID, with races across four quadrants and a dramatic team-centric competition. Although the official NPGL site is defunct and the league ceased operations after the 2016 season, the sport continues to live on through related GRID leagues like the United Grid League (UGL). This page serves as a concise portrait of NPGL—its foundation, key moments, champions, and how to trace the sport's ongoing legacy in today’s GRID community. For fans and newcomers alike, consider NPGL a pivotal chapter in GRID athletics and a gateway to current GRID events.
