About us
Four-hour camps for recreational players who have stopped improving. Twelve players, two coaches, indoor courts, and a curriculum built for the 50-plus game.
Jared has been an entrepreneur for 30 years. Right before selling his business in 2023, he got heavily involved in pickleball and fell in love with the sport — the social connections, the physical health, the added joy it brought to his own life. He also saw the explosion happening in the pickleball world, and in October 2024 he opened Pickleball Kingdom North Austin: 11 full-size indoor courts in Pflugerville. Jared still operates other businesses, but the ones he’s most passionate about are his indoor club and now Breakthrough Pickleball.
Breakthrough came from something he saw every day at the club: so many people fall in love with this sport but don’t know how to take the next step. They get stuck with bad habits and no plan to reach the next level. And most people who play pickleball never come to an indoor facility — so they never get access to premium, high-end coaches. Breakthrough Pickleball exists to close that gap: quality coaching for recreational players who want to improve, fast.
Many camps and clinics cost hundreds — even thousands — of dollars and eat a full day or a whole weekend. We built something simpler, concentrated into four hours and designed around the 50-plus player:
“Pickleball makes life better. We want to create an incredible community where people feel welcome, stay active, build friendships, and make lasting memories on and off the court.”

As the Co-Founder of Breakthrough Pickleball, I’ve developed a deep passion not only for playing the game, but for helping others truly understand it.
Through my experience coaching pickleball, I’ve found that some of the biggest breakthroughs don’t come from simply being told what to do—they come from understanding why you’re doing it. I love teaching the mental side of the game, the strategy behind each decision, and helping players connect the pieces in a way that makes the game easier to understand and more exciting to play.
Pickleball has become something I genuinely love, and Breakthrough Pickleball was created out of a desire to help others experience that same passion. I wanted to build a system and camp experience that goes beyond simply hitting drills or giving players more information. Our goal is to help players identify and break through bad habits, understand the reasoning behind the game, and develop the skills and confidence that allow them to reach the next level.
There is nothing better than seeing the moment when something finally clicks for a player—when they understand the game in a new way, break through a barrier that has been holding them back, and start playing with more confidence and enjoyment.
That’s what Breakthrough Pickleball is all about: helping players become better, think differently, break through what’s holding them back, and ultimately fall in love with the game even more.
