Mondeay night Pickleball at Highland Lakes

Monday night at 6:30 pm is when we teach new Pickleball players at Highland Lakes. We had several players on Monday night who want to learn our exciting game.  Al and Maria Grieze were back practicing on our courts.  They have been here several times and Al Grieze has moved on to play with the regular group of players.  Maria will be practicing some more until she feels comfortable to move on.  Jim Wise is brand new to the game and was doing really well towards the end of the night.  Visiting was Barbie who is Dick Mell's daughter come to join us on the courts for some teaching time.  Now that it's winter our courts are in full swing.  We have four courts going continuously.  We always have several people waiting to play and the rotation seems to be going pretty well. 

There are two rules that are to be followed.
 1) When a player leaves the Arena for any reason he brings his paddle with him/her and upon return goes to the end of the line.
2) When it is your turn to play and you don't want to go in at that particular time, "for whatever reason" you go to the end of the line.  These two rules will be enforced in order to make the game enjoyable for everyone.
