History

[edit]

Women's Professional Soccer

[edit]

Establishment

[edit]

In 2006, it was announced that Chicago would field a team in a new women's professional soccer league. The team joined six others (Washington Freedom,Boston Breakers,Los Angeles Sol,FC Gold Pride,Sky Blue FC, andSaint Louis Athletica) inWomen's Professional Soccer (WPS) for theleague's inaugural season in 2009.[5][6]Marcia McDermott, former head coach of theNorthwestern University women's soccer team and theWomen's United Soccer Association'sCarolina Courage, was named as the Red Stars' general manager.[7]

On June 3, 2008, the "Red Stars" name was announced at a Toyota Park ceremony. The name refers to the four six-pointed red stars on theflag of Chicago. Each star represents a landmark event in Chicago history:Fort Dearborn, theGreat Chicago Fire, the1893 World's Fair, and the1933 World's Fair. Other names considered were Progress,Towers, Union,Blues,1871, andWind.[8] "Red Stars" was chosen by popular vote in a two-month fan poll.[9]

2009 season

[edit]
Main article:2009 Chicago Red Stars season

The Red Stars won their first game of the season, 1–0, atSaint Louis Athletica. They followed with two ties (1–1 atWashington Freedom and 0–0 hosting Sky Blue FC) and a 4–0 shutout of theBoston Breakers at Toyota Park. This was the best starting record of any team in the league except season championsLos Angeles Sol, seeming to live up to preseason predictions.

The team was then winless for its next nine games (with three away draws), including a 451-minute scoring drought. TheWashington Freedom, scored first in their next game, indicating that the streak would continue. However, the Red Stars came from behind to win 2–1. They defeated last-placeFC Gold Pride 3–1 in their next game before losing four of their last five games, eliminating them from the playoffs and ending the season in sixth place. The Red Stars finished second in league attendance in 2009, behind the LA Sol.

Agreeing to see the Red Stars through their first season,Peter Wilt stepped down as CEO at the end of 2009 to become general manager of theMilwaukee Wave (his hometownNISL team). General manager Marcia McDermott assumed many of Wilt's responsibilities, although he continued to support the team on the league's board of governors and as president of the Chicago Red Stars Charitable Foundation.[10]

2010 season

[edit]
Main article:2010 Chicago Red Stars season

The Red Stars began their second season with high hopes and new faces.[11] They lost their first game at Sky Blue FC 1–0, after dominating much of the game. A 1–1 home tie in their second game earned the Stars their first point of the season. After a successful season, the team left WPS on December 13 because they were unable to meet the league's funding requirements for the 2011 season; the league folded in 2011 for financial and legal reasons.[12][13]

2011 Women's Premier Soccer League season

[edit]
Main article:2011 Chicago Red Stars season

The Red Stars joined theWomen's Premier Soccer League in 2011.[14][15] They played their home games atVillage of Lisle-Benedictine University Sports Complex,[16] in west-suburban Chicago.

The roster consisted of players from the women's national team U-20 and U-23 pools and collegiate players. The first players announced included three with WPS experience, including two from the Red Stars' 2010 squad.[17] The team was coached by Chicago native Rory Dames, and continued their activity in the Chicago soccer community through their soccer camps.[18]

The Red Stars finished the regular season with a 10–1 record, hosting the playoff semifinals and championship matches.[19] DefeatingTampa Bay Hellenic 2–1 in their semifinal, they lost in overtime by the same score in the final to the Orange County Waves (anotherWPSL team with WPS connections; Brittany Klein, a 2009–10 Red Stars player, was on the Waves).

2012 Women's Premier Soccer League Elite season

[edit]
Main article:2012 Chicago Red Stars season

In 2012, the Red Stars joined the former WPS Boston Breakers andWestern New York Flash to found the WPSL Elite League. Five other former WPSL teams joined the league:ASA Chesapeake Charge,F.C. Indiana,New England Mutiny,New York Fury, andPhiladelphia Fever.[20]

The Red Stars finished fourth in the league, making the playoffs. They advanced to the final, where they lost to the Flash in a 2–4 penalty shootout after a 1–1 draw at the end of extra time. Red Stars Ella Masar and Lori Chalupny were injured on the same play in the 33rd minute. WNY scored the equalizer in regulation with a 40-yard goal in the 97th minute to reach overtime. The Red Stars won the2012 National Women's Cup with half their roster, since the cup final was played at the same time as their final WPSL Elite regular-season match against the eventual third-placeNew York Fury.

National Women's Soccer League

[edit]

In November 2012, the Red Stars co-founded and was one of the original eight teams in a yet-to-be-named women's professional soccer league in concert withUnited States Soccer Federation, theCanadian Soccer Association, and theMexican Football Federation.[21][22] The league began competition in spring 2013.

The club's original primary logo combined two Chicago images; the shape of the shield is taken from its equivalent in Chicago's city seal. The colors, stripes, and stars in the logo are inspired by the symbolism of Chicago's municipal flag, with the blue stripes representing the two branches of theChicago River.[28]

In 2017,[29] the club's primary and secondary logos were updated with a design created by Julie Rochelle.[30]

In October 2024, the team announced they would be adopting a new crest and colors in conjunction with the change in team name to "Chicago Stars Football Club". The new crest has only one red star instead of four, includes two shades of blue, and "includes a curved marquee shape as a homage to the many theaters in Chicago, as well as the classic marquee of the Cubs' Wrigley Field stadium."[4]

The FC Indiana owners brought inPeter Wilt to lead their efforts in establishing the team, and they assembled a broad ownership group.[39]

WPS (2009–2010)

[edit]

The Chicago Professional Women's Soccer investor group owned the Red Stars from 2009 to 2010, during the team's membership inWomen's Professional Soccer.

Rory Dames/Arnim Whisler scandal

[edit]
Main article:2021 NWSL abuse scandal

On November 22, 2021,The Washington Post published an article with allegations from players, both previous and current, of abuse by head coach Rory Dames. The Post provided documentation of reports made to theUnited States Soccer Federation by players, includingChristen Press, as far back as 2014, detailing abuse, harassment, and inappropriate use of power as head coach to manipulate players.

"Three former Red Stars players, including one who played on the team at the time of the investigation, toldThe Post that they had wanted to speak to U.S. Soccer investigators but had never heard from them," reported Molly Hensley-Clancy. "Two had left the team because of Dames's abuse, they said."[27]

In February 2022, the Washington Post published a follow-up story reporting claims of misconduct dating back to the late 1990s, including a 1998 police report involving a youth player Dames coached atChicago Eclipse Select. The allegations went further, including multiple players claiming to have had a sexual relationship with Dames when they played for him at Eclipse. An accuser claimed that sex "felt almost expected". The verbal abuse also included constant name-calling.[58]

Dames' role in the founding ofElite Clubs National League, an elite group of youth soccer clubs of which he sat on the Board of Directors, and his role with the Chicago Red Stars andNWSL, played a role in players not speaking up, according to accusers. Players and parents were afraid Dames "could ruin the chance at a scholarship or a spot in the professional league" if they spoke up. An accuser said that "the monopoly over Chicago soccer, our belief that his connection to the college world was the only connection we would have — he used all of that to get away with doing and saying whatever the hell he wanted to us."

Initially, Arnim Whisler, the owner and chairman of the Red Stars, denied any knowledge of or complicity in Dames's abuse, claiming that "I have always strived to ensure that everyone hired in our environment is of high character and shares our positive values."[59] However, an investigation by former U.S. Attorney GeneralSally Yates revealed that not only had Whisler known about Dames's abusive behavior for years, but he had chosen to ignore it, given Dames's successful record as a coach. Yates's investigation also found that Whisler neglected to run a background check on Dames before hiring him. On October 4, 2022, the day after Yates's report was released, Whisler resigned from the NWSL Board of Directors,[60] giving up operational control of the Red Stars.[61] On December 2, 2022, Whisler announced his intention to sell the team.[51] On January 9, 2023, Whisler and the Red Stars were fined $1.5 million, and Dames was banned from ever coaching in the NWSL again.[62]
