Pickleball Kingdom announced the expansion of its empire with the opening of two new state-of-the-art clubs in Austin, Texas. These clubs, set to become the new hub for pickleball enthusiasts, are brought to the vibrant city by franchisee Jared Jolly.
Pickleball Kingdom’s expansion into Austin marks a significant milestone in the sport’s growth in Texas. The clubs are designed to cater to both seasoned players and newcomers, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the fastest-growing sport in America.
Founder and CEO of Pickleball Kingdom, Ace Rodrigues, commented in a statement, “Austin is such a great city. It’s known for fun, art, and entertainment. I can’t think of a better destination for our next clubs.”
The Austin franchisee is Jared Jolly, a seasoned entrepreneur. Jolly has built multiple businesses in mobile communication, online stores, and in the wholesaling space and enjoyed several successful exits. He sees his track record of success continuing with Pickleball Kingdom. Jolly said, “I was looking for my next venture. I fell in love with playing pickleball and thought, ‘It would be a dream come true to have a business in my passion.’ I vetted the leading brands in pickleball by analyzing the success of their current locations, their leadership team, and their vision for the future. Pickleball Kingdom came out on top in all three categories. I couldn’t be more excited to introduce this brand to the great people in Austin.”
