Inclusion through Adaptive Golf

The adaptive game of golf has emerged as a powerful force for inclusion in the sport. By modifying rules and equipment to accommodate individuals with disabilities, adaptive golf opens up the opportunity to participate and enjoy the game.

Through the efforts of organizations like The First Tee and PGA REACH, adaptive golf programs are expanding, providing a welcoming environment for golfers of all abilities. Modified clubs, specialized equipment, and trained instructors enable players to overcome physical challenges and experience the joy of golf.

The social and health benefits of adaptive golf extend beyond the course. Participation fosters camaraderie, builds confidence, and promotes physical activity. It also challenges preconceptions and creates a more inclusive sport.
