Indian cricketer KL Rahul has joined the Goa Guardians as co-owner ahead of Season 4 of the RR Kabel Prime Volleyball League powered by Scapia, marking his first step into sports franchise ownership.
Calling it a full-circle moment, Rahul said volleyball has the potential to be India’s next Olympic success. “PVL is a turning point for the sport in India. I’m excited to join Goa Guardians not just as a supporter, but as co-owner. Volleyball is a sport I’ve always enjoyed, and I look forward to helping it grow in our country,” he said.
Making their debut this October, the Goa Guardians will compete against top franchises in a fast-paced, TV-friendly format. Rahul added that Goa’s vibrant sporting culture makes it the perfect base for the team.
