Jill Zarin being sued by pal over pickleball company
What a pickle! What a dill-ema!
Jill Zarin started a pickleball company with a pal — but Page Six hears it’s ended up in a court of a very different kind.
The reality star got in on the pickleball craze by founding Pickle Pro Labs in 2023, and former friend Noah Springer put $500,000 into her startup, according to court papers.
But Springer says in the documents filed in Palm Beach County Circuit Court that Zarin took his investment, sunk it into the development of a thing called the “Go No Go” machine — which is used in regulating pickleball tournaments — then cut him out the spoils from the machine.
Springer’s complaint, which is also against Zarin’s boyfriend and co-manager Gary Brody, accuses them of breach of fiduciary duty, usurpation of corporate opportunity, misappropriation of funds and assets, conversion, and unjust enrichment.
But the reality star is returning service, telling Page Six she’ll beat him in straight sets.
“The beauty in America is you can sue anyone for anything,” Zarin told us, “I have a proven track record of winning all my lawsuits and I have no doubt when the true facts of the case comes out that this will be no different.”
According to Boca News Now, Springer claims Zarin secretly registered a second company — GNG Enterprises FL, LLC in May 2025 and “have been using it to market, sell, license, and manufacture the machine without authorization from Pickle Pro or disclosure to its remaining members.”
Apparently the way that paddles bounce a ball off the surface is very important in pickleball, so it’s important to test bounce to keep competitions fair. Pro tournaments have expensive equipment to test them. But the Go No Go machine is cheap enough and light enough to allow amateur tournaments to do the same.
Springer also claims they used “Pickle Pro’s corporate funds to pay personal expenses — citing, as one example, approximately $700 per month in health insurance premiums billed to the company,” according to the report.
