Your favorite Wedding Crasher, Dodgeballer, and Swinger is now your favorite pickleballer. A member of the Hollywood comedy elite — Vince Vaughn — purchased a pickleball team. News broke last month that Vaughn acquired a majority stake in the Coachella Valley Scorpions. The Scorpions are an expansion team in the professional league for players aged 50 and over — the National Pickleball League, LLC. Vaughn shared the courts with pro player and Scorpions owner Kim Jagd and had this to say: “I have always enjoyed the game and in meeting Kim I was impressed with her, not only as a player, but her passion and style of coaching. I’m excited to support her and the Scorpions on their journey.” Vaughn is a significant addition to the ownership of the league, both in terms of financing and credibility. Will he bring friends like Owen Wilson, Jon Favreau, and Will Ferrell into the mix as well? If a pickleball movie ever hits the big screen, you have to hope it’s in the hands of the new owner of the Scorpions. This segment is proudly brought to you by The Dink Pickleball Newsletter.
