As far as ability-organised games go, I think tonight worked really well. I feel like I had several really good, fast competitive games, but it also seemed like the beginners had a nice mix of practice with better players and that awesome pretty-much-all-beginners game looked good too. In that game they all had a lot more of the ball than usual...
I think the only thing to improve life for the beginners is them having their own mallets, or at least having one for the duration of an evening, so they can shuffle in at will.
