PLEASANT VIEW, UTAH: PaddleSmash is gearing up to introduce its distinctive backyard game in 'Shark Tank' Season 15 and has high hopes of securing investment offers from Mark Cuban, Robert Herjavec, Lori Greiner, Daymond John, and Kevin O'Leary.

PaddleSmash is available to buy on its official website and Amazon. It stands out as the ultimate outdoor group game designed to involve everyone in the action.

This backyard game seamlessly combines the best aspects of two popular pastimes, resulting in a new favorite party game that's not only tons of fun but also easy to learn.

PaddleSmash has been gaining attention for its unique fusion of elements from Pickleball and Roundnet, providing an engaging experience that's simple to set up and play.

Whether it's in backyards or by the beach, PaddleSmash is rapidly becoming the preferred game for families and friends seeking competitive and enjoyable entertainment.

Joe Bingham came up with the idea of PaddleSmash after he couldn't find any new way to entertain his kids.

However, Joe joined his entrepreneur friends, Tim Swindle, and Scott Brown, to create PaddleSmash, which was an instant hit during playtesting.

After playtesting, Tim and Scott moved quickly to create a version of PaddleSmash that is durable, portable, and ready for the masses.

They spent months tweaking the design and perfecting the gameplay.

What is PaddleSmash?

PaddleSmash is a new outdoor game that cleverly merges the most appealing features of Pickleball and Roundnet, creating an enjoyable and straightforward game.

As described on its website, PaddleSmash is ideal for playing in your backyard or at the beach. It is a fantastic choice for energetic gatherings with your family and friends.

The game could be set up just in one minute on grass, sand, or a flat surface. It is also portable, and all of its components could easily be fit inside the easy-to-carry foldable base court.

PaddleSmash includes four paddles and two balls, allowing you to start playing right away without delay.

Who is the founder of PaddleSmash?

PaddleSmash was founded by structural engineer Joe Bingham. He constantly looks for new ways to keep his seven kids entertained.

When his family showed interest in pickleball, he started to gather ideas for them to play at home.

Joe then built a court in the backyard, but it wasn't feasible, and he found it annoying to drive 20 minutes to the crowded pickleball courts.

Joe later found out that his kids love playing Spikeball. After a lot of research and some failed attempts, Joe finally found a way to combine the two sports.

The new backyard game was soon loved by his family as well as the neighbors, and that's how PaddleSmash was created.

Joe later teamed up with his close friends, Tim Swindle and Scott Brown, who were serial entrepreneurs in the toy and game space with a passion for outdoor sports.
