Thank you for visiting the homepage of the United States Blind Golf Association. We hope you find the links below informative about the sport of blind golf and how it is played. As you explore the links to various pages, you will find that blind golf strictly adheres to the rules set forth by the United States Golf Association (USGA), which also include “A Modification of the Rules of Golf for Golfers with Disabilities”. The modifications have just one major exception; a blind golfer may ground their club in a hazard such as a sand trap. USBGA members pride themselves by playing the game exactly how it was intended!
A New Initiative for 2008!
Support Membership Campaign
The Board of the United States Blind Golf Association is very proud to recognize those individuals around the country who have chosen to join our organization as Support Members. Through their patronage, the USBGA continues to provide quality tournaments and instructional golf clinics to those who deal with the loss of sight. Thank you from the entire organization.
