August 2023 Major Indoor Soccer League 2009-10 3,934 2008–09 2010–11 The 2009–10 Major Indoor Soccer League was the sophomore season for the league, and first under the revived MISL banner. It marked the 32nd season of professional Division 1 indoor soccer. The members of the MISL's second season teams were the Baltimore Blast, the Milwaukee Wave, the Monterrey La Raza, the Philadelphia KiXX, and the Rockford Rampage. The season kicked off on November 13, 2009, with the NISL champion, Baltimore Blast, welcoming the Rockford Rampage. The regular season concluded on March 21, 2010, with the Rockford Rampage hosting Monterrey La Raza. This year also marks the first season since the KiXX founding that they would play at a new arena, the Liacouras Center, on the campus of Temple University.John George Philadelphia Kixx relocating to Temple’s Liacouras Center https://www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/stories/2009/10/12/daily36.html 26 December 2022 Philadelphia Business Journal 14 October 2009 Shortly before the season began, the league was re-branded as the Major Indoor Soccer League. The season for each team was expanded to twenty games, so each team was to play ten home and ten away games. However, due to arena conflicts with Temple University, the Kixx played eight home games and twelve road games. On March 9, 2010, with an 11-6 win over the Rockford Rampage, the Milwaukee Wave clinched the first playoff spot, continuing the Wave's tradition of making the playoffs every season in a league named MISL. This also marks the fifteenth season since the 1993–1994 NPSL for the Wave to qualify for the playoffs.
