A Bay FC Match That Means More
At its heart, Bay FC’s Pride match is about creating a sense of belonging, something Bay FC strives to achieve at every match. Pride is both a celebration of how far we’ve come and a call to action for how far we still have to go. It is also a celebration of each person’s most authentic self. By standing together in pride, we help build a more inclusive community both on and off the field.

Bay FC’s Home Turf Magic to Keep the Goal Streak Alive
Bay FC feeds off the fan spirit, and it shows! They’ve found the back of the net in every home match at PayPal Park this 2025 NWSL season. The Bay FC players are eager to keep the goal streak alive with the support of a colorful and packed house hollering at the Pride match.
This Saturday’s match will be the first time Bay FC meets Portland for a NWSL regular-season meeting in 2025. But history suggests fans are in for a close match.
Flashback to 2024:
- In August, Bay FC secured a commanding 3-1 win in Portland at Providence Park. Abby Dahlkemper made a memorable debut by scoring her first goal for Bay FC and Joelle Anderson secured the win by also netting a goal.
- Earlier that year, the Thorns edged out a 3-2 win against Bay FC in a tightly contested match at PayPal Park.
🖥️ Relive Dahlkemper’s epic header goal off a cross against Portland all over again:
Stand with Bay FC and the Bay community in a match day full of pride. This match is about inclusion, standing proud in your true colors, and embracing the strength in our differences. Enjoy the match and stay for the community who makes it even more special.
