The 2016 Canadian Amputee and Disabled National Open (CADNO) is coming to Surrey, BC at the Northview Golf & Country Club from August 22-25, 2016.

The CADNO is sanctioned by the Canadian Amputee Golf Association (CAGA) and is a National Open Championship for Amputee and Disabled golfers, with participation of international players.

A Board of Directors, consisting of representation from various parts of Canada, operates the Association for the benefit of all amputees. CAGA’s priorities are to encourage more amputees to get involved with sport and recreation as part of their rehabilitation and future success going forward in life.

C.A.G.A. is the Canadian Amputee Golf Association and was formally incorporated (along with the acronym) with Industry Canada on October 18th, 2000. The Association was formed both Federally and Provincially, with the following Objectives of the Association being filed with Corporate Registry:

  • Assisting amputees and their families in the rehabilitation process, by giving them personal support – both physically and morally – through interaction with other amputees
  • Promoting awareness of amputee issues to the general public
  • Educating amputees in the latest developments in technology
  • Introducing amputees to the sport of golf as not only a means of recreation but also as a tool in the rehabilitation process
  • Promoting amputee golf throughout Canada
  • Bringing together amputee golfers from across Canada, to share their passion for the game of golf, in the spirit of friendship and competition

CAGA receives the support of many other Amputee organizations. All are interested in similar objectives – to get the amputee involved with other amputees, so that they can realize that their quality of life, is enhanced through their interaction with other amputees, as well as getting back into the able-bodied society.
