We were just not mature enough and it wouldn't hurt for us to repeat the course.

I do enjoy the game and played it with a neighbor 30 years ago. He had 4 kids and I have 3 all around the same age. He was an Air Force guy re stationed at McGuire which is next to Fort Dix and introduced the game to the neighborhood. Everyone played in his driveway, had bar-b-ques and drank copious amounts of beer.

ah,,,good times
Here's my problem. I know the game will be fun. I've played paddle and racket games for a very long time.
All these years I wasn't athletic enough to damage my knees, ankles or shoulders.

Do I want to take a chance now?
