The Dallas Flash Pickleball Club was formed in 2023 by Mark Cuban, Dirk Nowitzki, Robert Herjavec, John Isner, Chandler Parsons, and Todd Wagner. Dallas was the perfect home city for this group of owners, as the ties are numerous: Cuban owns the Dallas Mavericks, NBA Hall of Famer Nowitzki played for the Mavericks (and has a statue in front of the arena!), US tennis star Isner lives in Dallas, Parsons is a former Dallas Mavericks player, etc. Expect a Dallas-centric name change later this year.
