LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) — The Rebels take to their home pitch for the first time this season when they host the Santa Clara Broncos on Thursday, Aug. 31. Kickoff is 7:30 p.m. PT at Peter Johann Memorial Field.

The UNLV Rebel Soccer Foundation will host a pregame tailgate with free food and drinks in the west end zone prior to the game. The tailgate begins at 5:30 p.m. and is available to all with valid admission for Thursday's contest. Fans in attendance will also have a chance to win two tickets to The Revivalists' concert at The Theater at Virgin Hotels on Sept. 6.

Fans with proof of purchase for Saturday's UNLV Football game versus Bryant will also receive an Allegiant Stadium replica figure upon entry.

UNLV (0-1-0) fell 1-0 to UC Irvine in its season opener last week. A deadlock ended in the 66th minute when the Anteaters were able to sneak a loose ball from a scrum just inside the high-right post.

The game will stream free on WAC International TV.
