The PGA is encouraging disabled people inspired by the Paralympics to tee it up and give golf a go.

In the past four months more than 40 PGA professionals have undertaken a specially designedacademy programme equipping them with the skills to teach golfers with a range of disabilities.

And following the success of the Paralympics, The PGA, which supports a number of initiatives togrow golf at grass roots level, is eager to alert disabled people to the opportunities in golf.

PGA professional Craig Thomas, Lead Disability Coach for Staffordshire County Golf Partnership,has played a key role in tutoringmany of his fellow PGA pros atworkshops to equip them with theknowledge and confidence toteach golf to all people no mattertheir physical impairment includingblind people.

“From personal experience andseeing others who have given it atry, it is remarkable how much ofan impact golf can make,” he said.

“I have been fortunate to coach many blind and disabled people and golf gives them anopportunity to do something new, it gives them hope and encouragement and with more PGAprofessionals adept at dealing with the unique challenges of disability, the sport is becoming muchmore accessible.

The PGA academy programme, launched earlier this year at Celtic Manor in conjunction with ISPSHanda, has resulted in more than 500 free lessons for disabled golfers across the UK.

“As we have seen in the Paralympics, disability needn’t be a barrier to playing sport and throughthe skills of our PGA professionals, many disabled people have a marvelous opportunity to get outand try something new and most importantly which is fun and enjoyable.”

“Any disabled people who have been inspired to try sport by the Paralympics I would encourageto contact The Essex Golf Partnership to find out the opportunities available.”

The Essex Golf Partnership provides opportunities for disabled people to try golf.Please contact directly PGA Coaches Tom Hide, Thomas@coastalgolfacademy.co.uk07940 510450 or Sarah Graves sarahgravespga@hotmail.co.uk 07806 260819 who willbe more than happy to help. www.essexgolfpartnership.com .
