187. Sunday League | Shey Gibson - #ForThe831: The Grounds & The Rising Tide

Apologies for the audio issues, good audio starts at 6:50.

Join us as we welcome one of the most community-rooted figures in the 831 soccer scene — Shey Gibson. The man behind The Grounds, a killer coffee startup focusing on soccer and community events, and the Monterey Bay FC supporters group, The Rising Tide, Shey knows a thing or two about bringing communities together.

We talk:
- Starting his soccer journey in the 831 after moving around as a child.
- Playing college ball at Monterey Peninsula College and the Central Coast soccer journey.
- Building The Rising Tide, The Grounds, and being obsessed with community building.
- How they managed to get 200-300 players a night to play pickup soccer.
- What the 831 is brewing and why it deserves more love in the soccer scene.

If you're from the 831, enjoy a community success story, or just love some coffee and footy - this one's for you.
