The decision that shocked the pickleball world. Isaac and Scott from Friday Pickleball reveal the high-stakes drama behind their brand's launch. Imagine being 20 minutes away from signing a life-changing contract with the industry leader, Selkirk, only to get a "cease and desist" style DM from a startup with bananas on their paddles.
The guys walk us through the "spicy" first meeting, the "instant chemistry" with their now-partners from Yale, and why they walked away from guaranteed money to become entrepreneurs. If you've ever wondered how Friday Pickleball went from a Kansas City rec team to a household name, this is the story.
