10-12-17 Pickleball!!!
FInally!!!! I've found a group I feel comfortable in! I was searching for more places to play volleyball or pickleball and came across this place in Suwanee (Suwanee Sports Club---or something like that). They had pickleball listed from 11-1 on Tues. and Thurs. That was perfect timing for me and Suwanee is close to us. So I went. Tues. we had 9 people there and 2 nets up. They are a great group of people---mostly older like me, but with a few young or middle aged adults, too. They are also all very good, but happy to have a newbie like me show up. I had played twice before and had a very basic idea of how to play---somewhat like a mix between tennis and ping pong. They were eager to coach me along and I think I've progress quite well for the short time I've played. It is a lot of fun!!! Thurs we only had 5 people, but the sitting out every 5th game was welcomed. I'm happy to see that my heart and surgically repaired knee are doing just fine with the 2 hours of play. Not so happy that my "good" knee is pretty sore for a couple days afterwards. Hope that's just a getting accustomed to the new activity phase!
The complex is mostly for volleyball clinics. I hoped they would have adult volleyball, too, but they said there wouldn't be enough interest.
A couple of the regulars.
A couple more. Don't let the old people fool you!!! They are quite the proficient players!!!
So for $5 a day, or $25/month, I hope to be here a lot!
