Company
The Milwaukee Wave is the longest-running professional indoor soccer club in North America, claiming six league championships over 31 seasons. Milwaukee Wave players are role models for success on the field and in the community, supporting charity programs and fundraisers in the spirit of good sportsmanship. Wave players are also heavily involved in running dozens of local youth soccer camps, promoting healthy habits and teaching soccer skills to Milwaukee area children. With over 3 million fans (and growing), the team needed a dynamic and powerful website capable of keeping up with the growing swell of excitement.
Website Dilemma
The Wave’s existing website resembled a community calendar page, with blocks of text on a white background creating as much excitement and visual interest as the classified section. The layout and color scheme were dull and did little to generate enthusiasm—or income. But on the field and online, promoting the interests of your team is all about competition! Increasing revenue generates the resources and support for more wins—a concept iNET brings to every project.
