The Philadelphia Union announced their first trade of the regular season, shipping defender/midfielder Gabriel Farfan to Chivas USA. This 24-year-old Cal State-Fullerton product logged 57 total games with Philadelphia. Despite playing most of his college career as a midfielder, he was converted to left back after the Union traded Jordan Harvey during the 2011 season.

Santa Barbara Fiesta Soccer Tournament. We played in the over 30 division and went undefeated the whole tourney. This is the first year that the 82's were able to play and they (we) came out strong. Diego (an 82) got the golden boot of the tourney.

Soccer By Ives is reporting that the Philadelphia Union have signed Gabriel Farfan to a contract.

Farfan, the twin brother of the Union’s 2011 second round selection Michael Farfan, played at the University of Cal State Fullerton. He moved to Mexican soccer giants Club America for almost two years before leaving after progressing from the team’s reserve squad.

The Union have used Farfan at left back during the preseason, according to identifications by Union fans at the team’s games in Florida. Ives says that the 23-year-old Farfan "is expected to push incumbent left back Jordan Harvey for the starting role."

Head coach Piotr Nowak hinted to the signings of two defenders to bolster the Union’s lack of depth at key positions. 

Nomads Alumni Joe Corona put in a full shift at midfield for the Xoloitzcuintles and grabbed a yellow card in the process as Tijuana salvaged a 1-1 draw against ex-MLSer Cuauhtémoc Blanco and Irapuato in the first leg of the Mexican Liga de Ascenso final on Wednesday 5/11/11.

SD Sockers midfielder Nate Hetherington is reknowned for his vast impact on the San Diego soccer community.  Hetherington, a Nomads alum and current RSF Attack coach, will hit the pitch once again as a player for the reincarnated version of the Sockers, who will begin their season in the Premier Arena Soccer League on Nov. 7 at the new Del Mar Arena.   More Information
