Chelsea Football Club is accepting applications from eligible supporters to fill four selected positions on its Fan Advisory Board (FAB) for the next two-year term, the club announced on 16 July.
The FAB meets regularly with club officials to discuss strategic issues, share information, and provide input on decisions that may affect supporters.
Applicants must hold a current season ticket for men's or women's team matches, or hold a True Blue+, True Blue, or CFC Blue membership. Supporters with a Ticket Forwarding membership or those under 18 are not eligible.
A shortlist of candidates will be interviewed by a panel comprising independent supporter representatives, club officials, and a Football Supporters' Association representative. Existing FAB members will play no active role in the selection process.
The four successful applicants will join the FAB alongside the three already-elected supporter advisors to the board. Current FAB members may reapply for a second term.
The application deadline is Friday 24 July. Shortlisting will be completed by Friday 7 August, with interviews scheduled for the week of Monday 10 August. Successful candidates will be announced on Tuesday 1 September.
