The Chico Rooks were an American soccer team, founded in 1993 by Dave Stahl and Eric Snedeker. The team was a member of the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL), the fourth tier of the American Soccer Pyramid, until 2006. Initially, the team's management announced that they would spend the 2007 NPSL season on hiatus while they re-organised and consolidated their finances;[1] the Rooks never returned to active competition and the franchise was cancelled by the NPSL at the end of the 2007 season.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
The Rooks were a stalwart of the United Soccer Leagues from their formation in 1993 until 2003, where upon they were founding members of the Men's Premier Soccer League (now the National Premier Soccer League). For many years they were California's oldest professional soccer club.
The Rooks played in four different stadiums at local high schools and colleges before getting a permanent home stadium in 2001.[2] From 2001 on, the Rooks played their home matches at the University Stadium on the campus of California State University, Chico in the city of Chico, California.[3] The team's colors were black and white.
