Wayne Boich, Founder of the Reserve Cup, along with Honorary Chairman and Co-Captain Jimmy Butler, are thrilled to welcome back 5x World Series Champion and Major League Baseball Hall of Famer Derek Jeter, alongside famed comedian and padel enthusiast Andrew Schulz, as the official team captains for the Reserve Cup Miami 2025. Taking place from January 23–25 at Reserve Miami Seaplane, this eagerly awaited event kicks off the expanded Reserve Cup Series, which will travel to two additional cities later this year.
The weekend will bring together 16 of the world’s top-ranked padel players, including Arturo Coello, Agustin Tapia, Juan Lebron, Federico Chingotto, and Alejandro Galan. Divided into two teams captained by Derek Jeter and Andrew Schulz, these elite athletes will compete in a thrilling series of matches over three days for the coveted Reserve Cup trophy. This event is one of three tournaments in the Reserve Cup series, which features an unprecedented $1.7 million prize pool—the largest in padel series history.
Wayne Boich expressed his excitement about the upcoming event: “Having Derek and Andrew as captains highlights the unique blend of sports and entertainment that Reserve Cup offers. We’re excited to see them bring their best to the padel court and lead the best players in the world.”
Jeter, returning for his second year as Reserve Cup team captain, will bring his legendary competitive spirit to the court, determined to guide his team to victory. “I’m honored to return and lead my team once again in the Reserve Cup,” said Jeter. “Padel has become an exciting sport to be part of, and this event continues to showcase the best of what the game has to offer. I’m also proud to see how Reserve positively impacts the communities it serves, and I’m grateful that my Turn 2 Foundation benefits from this incredible event.”
On the other side, Andrew Schulz, known for his bold comedic style and competitive spirit, will captain the opposing team. A star in the world of standup comedy and entertainment, Schulz’s combination of humor and passion for padel will add a unique twist to the competition, promising an exciting and unpredictable match-up. “The Reserve Cup is all about high-level competition and high-energy entertainment, and I’m here to deliver both,” said Schulz. “While Jeter may have 5 World Series rings, I am going home with the Reserve Cup.”
