The team, Bay FC, formally introduced a new star forward who joins an already international group of women who will open their inaugural season just over a week from now.

On this International Women’s Day, the Bay Area’s only professional women’s soccer team has something to cheer about. It was just last year that Bay FC was approved as an expansion team in the National Women’s Soccer League. But it is coming on strong with new signings and a hope that having a women’s professional soccer team here in the Bay Area will grow the game for women and girls.

There are so many great qualities," Montoya said. On this International Women’s Day there is quite possibly not a better example of women with international backgrounds coming together. "We have a player from Venezuela, we have a player from Scotland, we have a player from Ghana, a player from Zambia, a player from Nigeria, a player from Canada and all over the US," Albertin said.
