Next, gatherings are allowed during events. The playoffs in sports attract hundreds of people. For example many fans come to watch the Raptors in the NBA playoffs after the regular season because they won the championship in 2019. Next example when the Maple Leafs are in the Stanley Cup playoffs it also attracts fans. Last example when Toronto FC are in MLS cup playoffs thousands of fans come to watch because they won the MLS cup in 2017.

I need to use a different word rather than next example for this sentence "Next example when the Maple Leafs are in the Stanley Cup playoffs it also attracts fans."

Can you show me a proper way to write the sentence above without using next example it has to be a transition word or any word that fits perfectly fine?
