The 2013–14 Major Indoor Soccer League season was the third under the United Soccer Leagues banner, fifth under the MISL name, and the sixth season overall. The season began on November 15 and concluded on March 2. Each team played a 20-game schedule.[3] This was the final season for this third incarnation of the MISL. Six of the seven teams joined the Professional Arena Soccer League, later renamed Major Arena Soccer League.
News
[edit]On December 4, the MISL Board of Governors approved video review of three-point goals. The decision states: "Referees will be able to use the reviews to determine the position of the ball in relation to the 3-point arc when the ball was struck. Reviews will not be used to determine if the ball crossed the goal line." The first game the new system was available was the December 6 game between the Pennsylvania Roar and the Rochester Lancers.[4]
