Organizers announced the launch of an adaptive golf community program at Stonebridge Golf Club in Rome, saying the Georgia State Golf Association has supported adaptive golf for 11 years. The presenter called the launch "a long time coming" and described the program as a community effort to expand access to golf for people with disabilities.
The presenter said, "This is a really huge treat for us to start our adaptive golf community program here in Rome at Stonebridge Golf Club. This is a long time coming. Um, our Georgia State Golf Association has embraced the adaptive golf community now for 11 years." The remark framed the event as the local start of a practice the association has supported statewide.
A questioner asked about prior golf experience and how the participant decided to try adaptive golf after an injury. A participant said family motivated them to return to the game: "My uh grandsons in PGA Juniors uh 9 years old and just wanting to get out and play with him, my son, son-in-laws." That participant also indicated family involvement shaped the decision to participate.
The transcript includes an incomplete closing remark — "We're going to study" — but does not specify next steps, a schedule, registration details, or funding sources. Organizers did not provide enrollment or timing information in the recorded remarks, so those details are not specified.
