Introducing Chris Meade, Co-founder of CROSSNET

Chris Meade is the cofounder of CROSSNET, the world's first four-way volleyball game that’s taken the world by storm. Meade’s on a mission to build the next generation of Wilson Sports and recently teamed up with YouTube creator Danny Duncan to launch Good Sport, a backyards game company. Prior to founding CROSSNET and Good Sport, Meade worked in sales at Uber and helped spearhead the launch of Uber Eats in various markets.

In 2017, Meade decided to take the leap and launch CROSSNET with his brother and childhood friend. Over the past six-years, the game has gained serious traction and become popular among beachgoers and sports enthusiasts alike. CROSSNET can now be found in thousands of stores across the country, including Walmart, DICKS, and Academy Sports. These accomplishments haven’t gone unnoticed. In 2021, Meade was featured in Forbes 30 under 30 and has been recognized as one of the most promising entrepreneurs of his generation. Meade’s success story is an inspiration to many, and his story of persistence and hard work resonates with those who aspire to make a change in the world.
