The Founders:
Sherman Kho
Sherman started playing pickleball in 2020 and quickly found the sport captivating. Playing badminton, squash, table tennis, and tennis growing up, Sherman quickly learned the game and wanted to get better. When he found out there is no local league for someone like himself, he decided to start one himself with the goal to allow individual players to join a weekly match anywhere-anywhen.
In addition to being a league coordinator, Sherman is also a competitive pickleball player, a pickleball coach, and a pickleball paddle designer. He is truly - “pickled”!

I love building community through planning events and developing programs that benefit pickleball players. Through listening to other players, I have found that most people just want to find other players to play pickleball with. I decided to use my technology skills to make that be an easier process. That is through matching and grouping people based on skillset, location, age and gender and also making it easier to schedule games between 4-5 people. I believe that through these services, this will increase people's health and happiness from playing the best sport in the world.
