The Story of Waterloo Pickleball & Capital City Pickleball

What started in 2020 as a makeshift court in the parking lot of 410 Pressler quickly grew into one of Austin’s most vibrant pickleball communities. By 2023, co-owners Jeremy Thiel and Jojo Atherton launched Waterloo Pickleball, transforming the space into a dedicated club where competition, connection, and community thrive.

In 2024, Mohammad Khan and Capital City Pickleball partnered with Waterloo and took over operations, making it the new home base for Austin’s largest pickleball community. With a focus on building inclusive events and growing the game, Capital City expanded programming with leagues, tournaments, and socials — creating a space where players of all levels can rally, recover, and connect.
