FC Davis is elated to announce the club has joined the Women’s Premier Soccer League as an expansion team for the 2020 season, completing a two year goal of bringing a women's side underneath the FC Davis umbrella.
FC Davis will join over 120 clubs from across the United States that make up the largest women’s soccer league in the world. Former US Women’s National Team stars such as Megan Rapinoe, Alex Morgan, Abby Wambach and Brandi Chastain once called the WPSL home.
Led by team President Cem Bolkan and executive board members from the Davis community, the team will seek to have just as big of an impact in the local community than it will on the field.
“The team can serve as a resource both on and off the field for the youth female players in our area,” said Bolkan. “Whether it’s a platform for players to continue competing in the sport they love or providing mentorship opportunities to our budding local stars, the goal is to use the team as a vehicle for good.”
FC Davis will hit the field this May against clubs from the PAC Northwest Conference. The PAC Northwest Conference includes teams from metro areas such as San Francisco, Sacramento and Pleasanton.
The newly formed Causeway Clasico against the Sacramento Storm will highlight the 2020 regular season, pitting FC Davis against one of the most historic and successful clubs in the country.
Home games will be played at Playfields Park in Davis starting this May and team announcements begin the end of February.
