Designed to be player-centric, the Bay FC Training Facility prioritizes athletes’ physical, mental, and emotional well-being. It blends sports science with a warm, residential sensibility. The Facility uses natural finishes, human-scaled architecture, and central courtyards with enhanced daylight and natural ventilation to create an environment where athletes can perform at their best and feel at home. Private training and recovery areas are designed to prevent injuries and enhance performance, while open social hubs strengthen connections between athletes and staff. Thoughtfully layered spaces balance privacy and community, allowing seamless transitions between training, preparation, and downtime. Beyond the pitch, the facility invests in the players’ long-term success, from career development to educational resources and business training.

Supporting the team is an ecosystem of coaches, trainers, and operational staff who manage the facility’s daily operations. The design streamlines their work by integrating clear circulation pathways and functional storage to eliminate the cluttered, ad-hoc spaces that often define athletic facilities. Workspaces with access to daylight, natural ventilation, and dedicated interaction zones keep staff engaged with the team and reinforce a sense of home.
