Exciting New Golf Opportunities for the Adaptive Community in Oregon!

Oregon Adaptive Sports (OAS) is making significant strides in promoting inclusivity in the sport of golf, set to launch its 2026 summer community golf season. This initiative aims to provide enhanced opportunities for individuals with disabilities in Central Oregon, showcasing the power of sports as a unifier and a source of joy.

A Warm Welcome for the Community

The summer season kicks off with an Adaptive Golf Community Clinic on May 28, followed closely by a Community Golf Kickoff BBQ on June 2, both taking place at the picturesque Sunriver Resort Meadows Golf Course. These opening events are designed not only to introduce adaptive golf but also to foster a welcoming environment for participants of all abilities.

Building Skills and Connections

During the Adaptive Golf Community Clinic, attendees will focus on skill-building and creating connections within the adaptive golf community. This is a great opportunity for adaptive golf coaches, OAS athletes, and community members to come together, learn, and grow. Registration for the clinic is available online, making it accessible for those eager to participate.

A Commitment to Inclusivity

The free BBQ event on June 2 underscores OAS's commitment to inclusivity, inviting everyone to join, regardless of ability. The festivities will officially mark the beginning of a full season of adaptive golf programming at Sunriver Golf, offering ongoing opportunities for athletes and community members with disabilities to engage in the sport throughout the summer.

With scheduled community golf sessions at Sunriver Resort and continuing programming at Awbrey Glen Golf Club, OAS is dedicated to creating lasting connections through outdoor recreation. One adaptive golf cart will be available during the clinic, and participants are encouraged to bring any personal mobility equipment they may need, ensuring that everyone can participate fully.

This season promises to be a remarkable journey towards increased accessibility in sports and community engagement, furthering the mission of inclusivity and support for individuals with disabilities.
