(Milwaukee, WI) Although the Milwaukee Wave does not play this week – the team's first Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) playoff game is Friday, April 16, 7:35 PM at U.S. Cellular Arena – Coach Keith Tozer's team will be participating in a couple of playoff rally events Thursday (4/8) and Saturday (4/10).

Thursday's event (April 8) takes place at Champps in Brookfield (1240 Moreland Rd., 262-797-6600) from 6:30 to 8:30 PM.

Admission is free, and there will also be drink specials on Labatt Blue and Labatt Blue Light. Tickets for the upcoming Wave playoff game will also be on sale.

Saturday (April 10), the Wave will be on hand for "Wave Day at Miller Park" as the Brewers take on the Houston Astros at 1:05 PM. The team will be honored for capturing its third straight MISL Regular Season Title (Milwaukee finished 27-9 to win the regular season crown) in a pre-game ceremony prior to the game. Coach Tozer will also toss out the opening pitch as part of the festivities. H2O – the Wave's performance dance team – will also perform during the contest.
