11Even Sports has roped in high-profile corporate honchos as team owners for its franchise-based league Ultimate Table Tennis (UTT), which was earlier called Ultimate Ping Pong. The company has sold five of the six franchises on offer.

The list of franchise owners is headlined by RP-SG Group promoter Sanjiv Goenka, Yes Bank founder, MD and CEO Rana Kapoor’s daughter Radha Kapoor Khanna, and Kapil and Dheeraj Wadhawan of Rajesh Wadhawan Group.

Goenka’s franchise is named RP-SG Mavericks. While Khanna has picked up Dabang Smashers T.T.C through her company Dolt Sports, Maharashtra United is the name of Kapil and Dheeraj Wadhawan’s franchise.
