Philadelphia KiXX News Release
Philadelphia, PA, March 20, 2009 - The Philadelphia KiXX close out the 2008-09 National Indoor Soccer League (NISL) regular season and the team's tenure at the Wachovia Spectrum versus the Massachusetts Twisters on Sunday, March 22. "Fan Appreciation Day" is scheduled to kick-off at 4:05 pm ET and features special promotions and prizes distributed throughout the course of the contest. The contest will also be available live via webcast at www.WMSSFM.com.
The Spectrum, the team's home for all 13-years of its existence, is scheduled to be razed sometime after the season to make way for an entertainment complex. The KiXX are currently in negotiations with a Philadelphia arena for next season and beyond; additional details will be available shortly.
The KiXX enter the contest with a 9-8 overall record and sitting in third place in the NISL standings. The top three teams qualify for the 2009 NISL postseason and Baltimore has already secured the number one seed and the first-round bye. With the team's victory versus Baltimore on March 14, Philadelphia has two potential scenarios to qualify for postseason play. The KiXX can clinch a berth if the visiting Monterrey La RaZa defeat the Rockford Rampage on March 22. However, if Rockford earns the victory, then the club needs the Blast to also knock-off the La RaZa in the League's finale on March 29 to qualify for the playoffs. Both scenarios require Philadelphia to earn a victory versus the Massachusetts Twisters in the team's final home game of the season on Sunday, March 22.
Last chance to celebrate the history of the Wachovia Spectrum - Philadelphia KiXX group and single-game tickets are on sale by calling the club's ticket office at 1-888-888-KiXX (5499). The KiXX also offer a Family 4-PaXX, four lower-level tickets, four hot dogs and sodas, for the low price of $69 and a Birthday Package priced at $24.90 per ticket. Single-game tickets are now available through the KiXX and the Wachovia Center Box Office, as well as online at www.comcasttix.com and at select Acme Market locations.
