Ready for some pickleball?
The sport, which has been growing in popularity among both Baby Boomers and younger players, is the star of a new sports and entertainment complex planned for Southeast Austin.
The Austin Pickle Ranch will be built at 9110 Bluff Springs Road, north of Slaughter Lane in Travis County. While pickleball will take center court, the project will also feature a range of other activities, said Tim Klitch, former Austin market president for Comerica Bank and co-founder of the Austin Pickle Ranch.
Klitch and co-founder Daniel Keelan, an Austin tech industry veteran, purchased the 13-acre property in June and expect to open the Pickle Ranch in mid 2021.
