2017 Chelsea L.F.C. season

April 10, 2024

The 2017 season was Chelsea Ladies Football Club's 25th season of competitive football and its seventh season in the FA Women's Super League and at the top level of English women's football, being one of the league's foundation clubs.[1]

Following a reorganisation of top-level women's football in England, the 2017 season only covered half of a traditional season's length, while the FA WSL shifted its calendar to match the traditional autumn-to-spring axis of football in Europe.[2] For the same reason, there was no Champions League qualification nor relegation to be competed for.
