ATX Women's Sports Pub, also known as 1972 Pub, is a groundbreaking establishment in Austin, TX, dedicated to empowering women and celebrating women's sports. Established as Austin’s first bar exclusively focused on women’s and gender-expansive athletics, it is named after the pivotal year Title IX was enacted to prohibit sex-based discrimination in sports. The pub provides a welcoming and supportive atmosphere for female athletes and sports fans to unite over their shared passion for women’s sports, which often receive limited recognition in traditional venues.

At 1972 Pub, patrons can enjoy exciting watch parties featuring their favorite women's sports teams, including the WNBA, while indulging in drinks and camaraderie. Committed to giving back, the pub donates 10% of its profits to local nonprofits that support athletic opportunities for girls and gender-expansive youth. Founded by Debra Hallum and Marlene du Plessis, the pub seeks to foster a vibrant community where everyone can come together to celebrate women’s accomplishments in sports.
