I can not get into an Intro #1 class. Last week I went online 2 hours after sign up and it was full. This morning sign up started at 8:30am for the next Intro #1 class. I got online exactly at 8:30 and it was full with a wait list of 29 people so far.

At this rate I will never be able to play Pickleball. Is there any secret to getting signed up? If there is PM me. With the huge interest in Pickleball I wish someone would open up more classes or make the classes larger.

I just moved here three months ago and can't imagine what it is going to be like when the snowbirds come back down. Thanks for any help.

BS. I am in good shape, athletic, a fast learner and used to play tennis in College.
I was on there at 8. When it opened at 8:30 I checked the 2 boxes and thought I was in. The confirmation email said I'm #1 on the waitlist. Just go to the open beginner times at the Rec Centers. Everybody is usually nice. I probably learned more in the last month than I will learn there, but have you to take one and two to get into the 3 skills classes.
