Delta, B.C. February 28, 2023 - British Columbia Golf is pleased to announce the inaugural All Abilities Golf Championship taking place at McCleery Golf Course from June 12 - 13, 2023.
“It’s an exciting time for British Columbia Golf and the 'Golf, Accessible For All' committee as we embark on a groundbreaking tournament in British Columbia," said British Columbia Golf Director Joe Higgins.
"The event will be a celebration of adaptive golf, and what’s possible when so many work for a common goal. We have lots of work ahead and we’re excited for what’s to come."
Added British Columbia Golf CEO, Kris Jonasson, "British Columbia Golf has marvelled at the work being done by the European Disabled Golf Association and through that work the number of events worldwide now being held. Adaptive golf opens the door for many to come enjoy the game whether recreationally or competitively.
"When you couple the championship with a 'Try Golf' component we can start a whole new group of golfers on a journey into the game. We thank the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation for hosting us at their venue for the inaugural event."
