The founders of outdoor game PaddleSmash — think: the best elements of pickleball and Spikeball — are hoping to make waves on “Shark Tank” on Friday, Oct. 20.
Fun fact: The game taking over backyards across the nation has ties to the Middle Tennessee area. College Grove resident Tim Swindle teamed up with Scott Brown and PaddleSmash inventor Joe Bingham to launch the portable game last year.
Tune into “Shark Tank” at 7 p.m. (here’s a sneak peek) to watch Swindle and Brown pitch the game to sharks Mark Cuban, Barbara Corcoran, Kevin O’Leary, Lori Greiner, and Robert Herjavec. Let’s take a closer look at how to play.
