Construction is underway in both locations, with both facilities expected to be completed and open in early 2025 ahead of the Valkyries’ inaugural WNBA season.
“The investment that Golden State has made into both the Valkyries Practice Facility in Oakland, and the locker room in San Francisco, underscores this organization’s commitment to excellence,” said Valkyries General Manager Ohemaa Nyanin. “Connecting both sides of the Bay with elite facilities will set the tone for our athletes, coaching staff and medical teams, as we build a roster that will compete for championships.”
