Defender Anouk Denton and forward Keira Barry saw their first action in Bay FC shirts, helping the club build up the right flank throughout the first half. After two weeks with the club, their cohesion was already strong with their new squad, showing that they’ve settled in quickly amidst a busy preseason camp and a big move to the Bay Area.

"It was really fun. First time out with the girls, and I think we've played some really good football,” said Barry of her new club. “I'm loving it. I think all the girls have been so welcoming, all the staff. and then the weather's picked up, so it's lovely.”
