Blind Golf
Blind Golf Australia was formed to promote the game of golf amongst blind and vision impaired people and to co-ordinate blind golf between the states of Australia.
The organisation aims to represent Australian blind golf internationally and to create and maintain registers of blind golf events throughout Australia with lists of players, sight classifications and handicaps. Blind Golf Australia (BGA), formerly Australian Blind Golf Australia (ABGA) was formed in 1993 with four (4) members. The members were State Associations based in Western Australia, New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia. BGA is also a founding member of the International Blind Golf Association (IBGA).


Rules & Equipment
Rules
The Rules of Blind and Vision Impaired Golf Work in the same way as sighted golf, the only primary difference is that each Visually Impaired golfer will have a guide that assists in the direction that the golfer will swing in, as well as where the ball is and what its lie is.
Caddy
The guide is not allowed to touch the golf club throughout the stroke, only in lining up the golfer and telling them what direction to hit the ball.
