They accused us of playing in the wrong class and then left the courts after the first game. While I would like my game to be at an open level, I have not achieved that yet. It was a hot day and I hope the couple we faced that day would cool down and continue to learn to play BP. It�s only a game played for fun!

If you believe that your game has improved, go ahead and give advanced beginner a try.

I agree, if you know how to keep score, understand the two bounce rule, and can serve and rally. Move up. Beginning play IMO give player chance to rally some while leaning rules, where to stand, how to keep score.

Now if you never played racket or paddle sport before it may take little longer get good strokes going. Especially on the
backhand side.
