All Programs
Complimentary program providing access to golf instruction, equipment, and playing opportunities to individuals with physical, cognitive, and sensory disabilities.
This program provides affordable access to golf to juniors in Georgia. Youth pay $5 to walk 18 holes, and the GSGA pays a subsidy to offset the cost of that affordable round.
Financial Needs
Adaptive Golf Programming
The GSGA Adaptive Golf Program provides complimentary access to golf instruction to participants with physical, cognitive, and sensory disabilities. This program has partnered with the Shepherd Center, VA Hospitals, community groups, physical therapists, the Cobb County School District, and other organizations to provide programming at no cost. Started in 2015, the GSGA Adaptive Golf Program is launching a capital campaign to secure consistent funding for years to come that will not only sustain but grow the numbers of unique participants that benefit from this life enrichment program.
