Bay FC and Coach Albertin Montoya Set to Part Ways Post-Season

Bay FC announced on Monday that coach Albertin Montoya will resign at the end of the season following the team’s late-season decline.

Bay FC is currently on a four-game losing streak and remains winless in their last eight matches. Their next match is against the Orlando Pride on Saturday.

CEO Kay Cossington will lead the search for a new coach. “Thanks to Albertin and the sporting staff’s efforts, Bay FC has established a strong foundation on the pitch and I’m excited to help elevate the club further,” Cossington stated.

Bay FC ranks 12th in the 14-team league with seven games left. Their last victory was on June 7 against the Portland Thorns.

Last season, Bay FC achieved an 11-14-1 record as an expansion team, finishing seventh and being eliminated by the Washington Spirit in the playoffs.

This year was challenging, as the San Francisco Chronicle reported a toxic atmosphere related to Montoya’s methods earlier in March. An NWSL investigation found no violations but noted communication issues from Montoya.

Montoya, 50, did not specify why he is leaving, but said, “I want to thank Bay FC and look forward to ending the season strong.”
