162. Dennis Crowley, Co-founder and CEO of Street FC

Today, I'm joined by Dennis Crowley, co-founder and CEO of Street FC, a tech-enabled street soccer league.

Street FC is building the world's biggest football club, organizing 5v5 street soccer games on hard-court surfaces in urban settings. Scheduled and monitored through its app and Discord channel, it runs games in NYC, Austin, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Minneapolis, with plans to expand to 20 cities by the end of 2023.

In this episode, we discuss Dennis's experience using technology to bridge digital and real-life communities, plus Street FC's growth plans for soccer and beyond.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Dennis's journey from Foursquare to creating the "SoulCycle for soccer"
• How Street FC leverages playing surfaces as billboards for brands
• Street FC's strategic plan to grow to 20 cities by 2023
