"first come, first served" is pretty clear to me.
I can't imagine trying to butt into a group of friends having fun, but some folks just can't help themselves. |

I also practice singles in this manner. 2 us were practicing singles for a competition and two people showed up and insisted that we play doubles. We said "no thanks". They got very snitty. |
My brother is always inviting others to join use while playing pickleball or table tennis. So far, everyone has been very nice and occasionally lets us win. There seems to be more retired Olympic athletes here than back up in Ohio. We are getting better and enjoy playing in the Villages.:smiley:

[QUOTE=Redstag;1200313 I personally can’t imagine trying to force myself on someone enjoying themselves in a private game, but they were so intent on interrupting what was obviously friends having a good time that they went crying to the facilities manager who sent her people out and told us we had to let them play.[/QUOTE]
I understand completely. On the other hand, now that I'm older I realize when the other kids were playing and I asked if I could play and they said "not now Tom take a walk and come back in a half hour" that every time I went for a walk for a half hour that when I did get back and no one was there it was probably a trick. That went on for years. You could try it on them and hope they didn't read this. |

I am merely relaying my opinion, observation, and advice. I have played at many Pickleball Courts here in The Villages, and have found that for many reasons that " Lake Miona " stands out for in particular for Beginners..up to Intermediate + . Granted as I have learned the Best Players regularly play at Lake Miona, however those players are More than willing to share with players who are learning to improve..Lets face it it is " The " fastest growing sport in America, and those players recognize that. I cannot emphasize it more than this particularly on this fine TOTV forum...Beginners up to Intermediate Plus + Go to Lake Miona each weekday morning open play from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM...You will not be disappointed. Plus those who are just plain Curious...Go...and Enjoy the Fun.. :coolsmiley: |
