Chelsea Burnham, of Saint John, will join the Université de Moncton Aigles Bleues women’s soccer team for the next Atlantic University Sport season.

A goaltender, she was a member of Team New Brunswick at the last Canada Summer Games, in Winnipeg in 2017. She has been a member of Soccer New Brunswick High Performance Program for the last two seasons.

“Chelsea is a very coordinated goaltender with very good technical skills,” stated coach Mehyar Zekaroui of the Blue and Gold. “She has capable hands and she can move her feet very well to launch our offensive. This will offer our team more offensive options on the field. She is the type of player we want for our team. She has a great attitude on and off the field and a good student that knows her priorities.”

Burnham is 5 feet 6 inches and will pursue studies in kinesiology.
