18 JUL 2010 - The Chelsea G00 Blue Girls took home the Championship trophy this weekend at the PSA Invitational. The tournament started and ended with hard-fought battles against PSA's own G00 Blue team. Chelsea took the tournament opener win from the PSA girls in a 5-2 match, scoring two important goals in the final minutes. Next the Chelsea girls faced Corona United, emerging with an 8-0 shutout victory in the sweltering heat. Sunday morning saw Chelsea Blue vs Chelsea Black in the Semi Finals where Chelsea Blue won in a very exciting 3-1 match. Facing PSA Blue again for the Championship, in the worst of the mid-afternoon heat, the game ended in a 1-1 tie, then in the first 5 minute overtime period, the referee caught a handball in the goalkeeper's box which resulted in a penalty kick for Chelsea. Chelsea's Morgan Weinstein took the kick and brought home the trophy for the Chelsea girls.

14 JUN 2010 - The girls of Chelsea G00 Blue won their first pre-season tournament this weekend in an exciting Championship match against the Celtic G00 Harps. The Harps took an early 1-0 lead with the Chelsea girls tying up the match twice and winning it 3-2 with a less-than-one-minute-left goal. The Harps brought speed and big boots against the Chelsea girls. The Harps took one goal on a long distance free kick that went over the reach of our keeper. Our Chelsea girls are excited about the coming season and are working hard in preparation. Thank you Coach Pete!

07 MAR 2010 -

WE BELIEVE!

This is the chant our G00 Blue girls would recite over and over this past season as our coach Pete Delgadillo would ask "Do You Believe?" at the beginning of each game. Finishing third in their league division, the girls opted to continue post-season play by signing up for the State Cup, Governor's division. Kicking off way back in January, the girls won three of four games to get to the "Round of 16". Shutting out Laguna Hills Eclipse 5-0 and then beating CSC Sand Diego 6-1, the girls lost the 3rd game against FC Heat in what was a surprise 1-5 loss in the wake of such early success. When the following weekend's games were canceled, the girls took advantage of the break to play some very tough friendlies put on by the "Celtic" organization. We even scheduled 5 games one weekend, but the girls came back stronger than ever when State Cup resumed. They secured 2nd place in their bracket by shutting out Simi Valley Eclipse 3-0 in the final game of the early round.

The first game in the Round of 16 was won in PK's against United FC and then they were off to the Quarter Final, beating San Diego Surf 4-1. The Semi Final game against LAFC was one of the most challenging contests, the girls were down 0-1 at the half but rallied to a 2-1 win. By this time, the girls' momentum was unstoppable and Coach Pete explained to the girls at the beginning of the Championship game against SCV Magic that this was going to be a very physical game. In fact, both sides had more than one player go out with injuries, fortunately no one was seriously hurt and there was never a question of intent. Chelsea G00 Blue emerged with a 5-1 win, with every girl on the roster getting plenty of field time in this important game and 3 of our girls sharing the scoring duties. We congratulate SCV Magic on their success in reaching the Finals and thank them for both a hard fought battle and for their sportsmanship!

The girls and families of Chelsea G00 Blue wish to give thanks to all our coaches for their dedication and leadership and to our sponsors for their financial support - with an especially Big Thank You to Adam Kennedy who's generosity has helped us tremendously.

We salute you Coach Pete!

22 FEB 2010 - Chelsea Blue Girls Under 9 have advanced to the Final Four in the Governor's Cup. Beating Simi Valley Eclipse in a 3-0 shut-out on Saturday in the mud and cold drizzle at Temecula, the girls moved on to face United FC on Sunday morning. Tied at 2-2, the game went into two overtime periods and ended with the Chelsea win in PK's. Later that day, the Chelsea girls faced SD Surf for a 4-1 win.

Next Saturday in Lancaster, the Chelsea SC girls will face LAFC in the Semi-Finals. LAFC will be the Away team next Saturday and our girls, accustomed to being cheered on as "Chelsea Blue", will be wearing their Blue jerseys under their Whites. A win will the put the girls against the SCV Magic or Cypress Elite in the afternoon Championship Game.

The Chelsea girls are very excited to have made it this far and are looking forward to meeting the LAFC team next weekend. We'd all like to say "We Believe!" and "We Love You Coach Pete".

Go Chelsea Blue!

04 FEB 2010 - Chelsea Blue Girls Under 9 are currently placed 2nd in their Governor's Cup bracket and are hoping to advance to the Round of 16 this Saturday in Temecula. The Chelsea girls traveled last weekend to Simi Valley and shut out the Laguna Hills Eclipse in a 5-0 game last Saturday afternoon. After a night of BBQ ribs, movies, fun and games at the Holiday Inn Express in Simi Valley, the girls met the Crusaders from San Diego and allowed only one goal in a 6-1 game.

Meeting the FC Heat from Escondido at noon on Sunday proved to be a bigger challenge for the girls. The Heat was coming off of 2 big wins on Saturday, and were apparently well-rested and ready to fight. Chelsea had an early 1 point lead, but in the last of the 2nd half, we allowed several goals and lost painfully 1-4. The next, and final match in this round will be this coming weekend, Feb 6th in Temecula when we meet the Simi Valley Eclipse at 9am. Simi Valley Eclipse is currently ranked 4th in the bracket. A win, or even a tie, will advance the Chelsea Girls to the next round in State Cup.
