Bay FC coach Albertin Montoya will resign his position at the end of the season, the second-year National Women’s Soccer League club announced on Monday.
Under Montoya’s leadership, Bay FC made the NWSL playoffs in its inaugural season, losing a heartbreaker to eventual league runner-up Washington. But Bay FC took a step back this season and is currently 12th in the NWSL standings with seven games left.
Montoya was also investigated by the NWSL this season for an alleged “toxic” work environment. He was ultimately cleared by the league but received executive coaching to help address communication issues, and Bay FC made organizational changes in an attempt to rectify some of the past shortcomings.
Kay Cossington of Bay Collective, a multi-club global organization dedicated to holistic excellence and the growth of women’s football, will lead the search for Bay FC’s next coach alongside current Bay FC sporting director Matt Potter. A release from the team said Cossington “will be leading the sporting efforts of the club going forward, including the selection of the club’s next head coach.”
“I want to thank Albertin for his leadership and dedication in helping launch this club and establish its foundation during our startup phase,” Bay FC chairman Alan Waxman said in the release. “On behalf of everyone across the organization, we want to express an immense amount of gratitude to Albertin for his contributions.
“Kay has a vision that we are fully invested behind. Bay FC’s startup phase is ending and we’re moving to our next phase of growth. We are only getting started and excited for what’s next.”
