Ruby George & Mather Wiswall: Founders of the United Grid League

Imagine, for a moment, what goes into launching a new business. Think about it. All the excitement, stress, time, details, ideas, and millions of other unknown hurdles that can’t be planned for or strategized about. And when you think about all that, who would you turn to for help?

Does your sibling spring to mind?


For Mather Wiswall and Ruby George, the sibling founders of the United Grid League, that’s exactly what happened.


I had chance speak with Mather and Ruby about the UGL and the rapidly growing sport of Grid. We go into the twists and turns involved with running your own sports league, what keeps them up at night, and what gets them most excited about where the sport is headed.


And yes, we go into what it’s like to run a business with a sibling, and what they’ve learned about each other (and themselves) along the way.
