MISL Announces 2011-12 Schedule

September 6, 2011 - Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) News Release


TAMPA, Fla. - The Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) released its 2011-12 schedule today, with the action slated to kick off for the 96-game regular season on Thursday, November 3. Opening weekend for North America's most storied professional indoor soccer league will be highlighted by the debuts of the Wichita Wings, Rochester Lancers and Syracuse Silver Knights. Also part of the opening-weekend action are the Missouri Comets, who will renew their pursuit of the MISL title.

The MISL has grown from five to eight teams for the 2011-12 season as the Baltimore Blast, Milwaukee Wave and Missouri are joined by a new franchise in Chicago as well as the Norfolk SharX, Rochester, Syracuse and Wichita.

The 2010-11 MISL champion Wave kick off their title defense on Sunday, November 13 when they play host to Wichita at U.S. Cellular Arena. The Blast open on Saturday, November 12 when they play host to Syracuse at 1st Mariner Arena, while Norfolk welcomes Syracuse on Friday, November 11 at Scope Arena. Chicago also gets underway November 12 when it visits Rochester for the Lancers' home opener.

The season is set to wrap up on March 4, with crucial intra-division contests such as Milwaukee at Chicago (Saturday, March 3) and Baltimore at Syracuse (Sunday, March 4) that could have bearing on the 2011-12 MISL playoffs.

The 2011-12 MISL regular season will consist of 24 games, with teams playing 16 games within their division - six games against their nearest geographic rival and five games each against the other two teams. They will face each of the teams from the other division twice, once home and once away.

The MISL playoffs will begin with the semifinals March 9-11, featuring the top two teams from each division meeting in a home-and-home series with a mini game to decide the series following the second game if needed. The championship will follow the same format on March 16-18. The higher seed will choose which game it hosts.
