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.

We also have been here only 3 months and found it hard to learn. We were lucky in that someone in our neighborhood was willing to coordinate “social pickle ball” nights after making sure everyone knew the safety rules. So my advice is to ask people in your village. Someone may step up👍🏻 Good luck you are not alone. There are lots and lots of us learning the sport. It is quite fun!!
