Scheduling for this session is nearly impossible.....call a week in advance, rainouts not automatically rescheduled for the next session, etc.

Advice needed is:
  • Can I play without completing this course?
  • Are there alternatives to this course for a beginner to learn?
  • Are there groups or open play sessions for beginners?
I'm ready to play, I want to play, but circumstances seem to be a barrier.




Any advice for me?

Thanks in advance.

When you are comfortable just go to a rec center and get in line.
