Creating Access for Adaptive, Amputee, Disabled, Underserved, Veteran, Youth Communities.

Building an accessible community for everyone to have equal access to occupational therapies, rehabilitation, and other forms of treatment fueled by the game of golf, as well as to learn, play, compete, while improving their golf skills, also providing accessible equipment needed to accomplish this goal.

Heat Sensitivities and

foul Weather

There are many reasons keeping individuals from outside sports and leisure. The two major factors are extreme heat and cold.

Having an indoor golf facility gives a large population of would-be-golfers an opportunity to learn, practice, compete, and play the sport they love.

Disabled Women Golfers Growing the Game

According to the Center on Disease Control (CDC), sixty-one (61) million or 26% of adults in the United States (1 in 4) have some form of disability.

According to the same statistics, about 36 million women in the U.S. have disabilities (1 in 4) and the number is growing.

Cindy Lawrence is a double-amputee who plays competitive golf regularly.

Dallas, TX, Scottish Rite for Children s Director of Therapeutic Recreation, Dana Dempsey, MS, CTRS, created the Learn to Golf program for her patients using golf as occupational therapy.

Golf Courses, like this course in Whistling Straights Wisconsin, are inaccessible to most persons with differing abilities.

It has been very successful among amputees and children born missing limbs; however, weather plays a large part in their being able to have a regularly scheduled program.
