Golf Industry News - Paragolfer

The Paragolfer is an all-terrain wheelchair that raises the user into a standing position, allowing a safe and conventional golf swing.  The sponsored machine was introduced at a special event hosted by The Golf Trust

Over 250 wheelchair users were given the chance to try golf for the very first time this week, as The Golf Trust delivered Paragolfer sessions at The London WheelPower Sports Festival. 

The Golf Trust has secured Sport England funding for its national Paragolfer project. Starting this month, physically inactive disabled adults aged 14-65 will be introduced to golf by 10 Golf Trust PGA coaches at three venues across the country.
