DUBEM (Year 10) joined his team mates on the Stamford Bridge pitch at half-time during the recent Chelsea v Man Utd fixture. In October his Under-15s won the Premier League International Tournament at their age group. The International Tournament sees a selected group of overseas clubs invited to take on the best from England, who progressed through regional qualifiers earlier in the season, and is considered to be the showpiece tournament for each age group every season. Chelsea Under-15s defeated Dynamo Kiev, Newcastle United and Manchester United in the group stage at the beginning of the month in Derby, scoring a combined 14 goals and conceding just two. The semi-final saw Chelsea drawn against Sunderland, where two goals and a clean sheet meant the youngsters were through to the final to take on the young Toffees.

Another impressive performance followed in the showpiece occasion, with Everton defeated with a convincing 4-0 scoreline. One of Dubem’s coaches is the former England player Ashley Cole. Our congratulations to Dubem for maintaining a demanding Wilson’s education alongside these impressive successes!
