Why Should I Play Adaptive Golf?
· Learning to play golf is fun and is a great way to make new friends and enjoy the outdoors, while getting recreational therapy!
· We have our own PGA professionals who teach golf to people with a variety of disabilities (with and without the use of any aids).
· We have our own adaptive equipment including clubs and single-rider carts.
· Classes include group instruction and individual instruction on the driving range, chipping area and putting green.
· Volunteers are available to help as needed, providing special assistance on a case-by-case basis.
· Shuttle service is available from the parking lot to the driving range or putting green where the classes take place!
How Much do Classes Cost?
· Cost is $30.00/session (five 1-hr group lessons): includes range balls, golf equipment and adaptive aids.
