Frontwave Arena releases San Diego Sockers’ game schedule

OCEANSIDE — Frontwave Arena, the new 7,500-seat, state-of-the-art sports and entertainment venue that opened last month, has announced the full game schedule for the San Diego Sockers’ 2024-25 season.

The Socker’s schedule features 12 home games starting with the first on Dec. 14 against Utica. This season also marks a significant transition for the professional indoor soccer team as members settle into their new home at Frontwave Arena and welcome new General Manager Miguel “Chiky” Luna.

Since the team was established in 1978, the San Diego Sockers have achieved a legacy of 16 professional championships and back-to-back Major Arena Soccer League titles in 2022.

As part of the team’s transition to its new home, Sean Bowers, who has served as general manager since 2016, will be stepping away from the Sockers organization to take on the role of Executive Vice President of Sports Management at Frontwave Arena. Under Bowers’ leadership, the Sockers compiled an outstanding record of 138 wins, 26 losses and five draws over eight seasons, securing both MASL and MASL M2 championships.

Luna, who has been with the Sockers organization since 2016 as the Vice President of Operations and is a former player with the Sockers, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his new position. He aims to elevate the team’s performance on and off the field through his strategic visions, which have already helped to attract talent like standout players Ceasar Cerda, Brandon Escoto and goalkeeper Boris Pardo.

“I’m excited to lead the Sockers into this new era at Frontwave Arena,” Luna said. “With our strong roster and dedicated fan base, I believe we can achieve great things together.”

The full schedule for the Sockers’ 2024-25 season is available on the Frontwave Arena website. For more information, visit: https://frontwavearena.com/
