The Bay Area is buzzing with excitement as Sabrina Ionescu, our very own WNBA champion and a local hero, dives into the world of sports investment. Yes, folks, she’s all in as an investor and commercial advisor for the Bay Football Club!

Ionescu, the Walnut Creek native who’s racked up accolades including three-time All-Star and Olympic gold medalist, took to Instagram to announce her new role. Her post was as warm and fuzzy as a Bay sunset, proudly declaring her “love for the Bay”. Clearly, her ties to this community run deep.

She expressed her passion for the venture, stating, “As someone with deep ties to the Bay Area, this opportunity holds even more significance, and I am truly honored to be a part of such a special endeavor to continue to grow women’s sports”. Honestly, if her enthusiasm doesn’t give you goosebumps, what will?

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the sheer brilliance of Ionescu’s journey. She’s not just shooting hoops; she’s making history. Known for getting things done both on and off the court, she made waves by launching a unisex signature collection with Nike, proving she’s as much a style icon as she is an athlete. Bay FC’s CEO Brady Stewart even hailed her as “the ultimate innovator”. Let’s be honest, who doesn’t love a trailblazer?

Her inclusion in the club is not just a win for her but for women’s sports everywhere. Ionescu’s commitment reflects the shared mission of Bay FC as they aim to establish themselves as a global sports franchise. Nothing says progress like women athletes owning their space in sports, right?

The excitement doesn’t stop there, mark your calendars! Bay FC is set to kick off their season on March 15 against the Utah Royals in Sandy, Utah. And true to Bay style, their home opener will be on March 22 at PayPal Park in San Jose when they host Racing Louisville FC. So grab your cleats and paint your faces because things are getting real in the Bay!

In a time where women’s sports are finally getting the spotlight they deserve, we can’t help but cheer for Ionescu, not just for her athletic prowess but for championing the future. Remember, are you not entertained? You better be, because the Bay is here to show up and show out!
