Is the stadium they are playing in undecided or a secret? Clicked all over the site and didn't see it.

4107 Nixon Ln, Austin, TX 78725

That's the address. They will share the field/sports complex with the Austin Huns Rugby Club. They were under the same ownership, but there were rumored to be some dispute over the trademark. There could also have been some complications with the Huns' ability to compete on the club circuit if connected to the Pro team.

Another rumor says that a 40k capacity stadium is being explored for a possible soccer team to move to Austin that would be shared.
