Golf
The Special Olympics Massachusetts golf program is centered on two educational phases designed to encompass all skill levels: learning to swing a golf club and learning to play the game.
Special Olympics Massachusetts currently offers multiple levels of golf competition: Individual Skills competition, 9-hole competition and 18-hole competition.Â
In addition to traditional events, athletes can participate in Unified Sports team play. Unified Sports is a program that assigns Special Olympics Massachusetts athletes and athletes without intellectual disabilities (Unified partners) to the same teams for training and competition. In Unified golf, teams consist of one Special Olympics Massachusetts athlete and one Unified partner, and the team plays in the Unified Team Play competition event and alternate shots.
