WYOMING, Mich. — An adaptive golf clinic gave a dozen people of varying abilities the opportunity to play golf at the Pines Golf Course in Wyoming Tuesday afternoon. Some participants were fitted with equipment that allowed them to play.
Hosted by the Mary Free Bed Wheelchair and Adaptive Sports Program, the clinic helped players with both physical and cognitive disabilities hit the golf course. Volunteers and staff from Mary Free Bed worked with participants both to fit them with equipment and help them play. One of the pieces of equipment allowed wheelchair users to stand upright to swing their club.
