That’s right, season 2013 will see the first senior women’s team representing Chelsea FC playing in the metropolitan south east division of FFV. The club has recently appointed John Fricot (details below) to coach this team. John brings a lot of experience to Chelsea FC and will ensure that Chelsea’s senior women’s soccer team will be well prepared for the upcoming season.
The first training run for season 2013 will be on MONDAY 17 DECEMBER from 6-8pm at Chelsea Bicentennial Park (enter off Sturdee Street). This will mostly be a meet and greet session, but come prepared for a light training run as well.
If you cannot make this session, but are interested in playing in season 2013, please contact Peter McCarthy (0418 388 257 or  peter@culsim.com.au).

In season 2013 Chelsea will now have girls only and women’s teams competing at all age groups from U10 to U16 and seniors. There are also many girls joining in our goal kick sessions on Saturday and Sunday mornings and girls competing with the boys in our U7-U9 teams. We are always looking for new players. No experience necessary.
