Special Olympics Iowa Unified Golf pairs individuals with intellectual disabilities with Unified Partners (golfers without intellectual disabilities) to compete in a team environment. Unified Sports are crucial to our mission as they promote inclusion and friendship for all.
Several skill levels are offered to meet the skill level of any athlete:
- 9-hole: Pro (knows the game and skills for a full golf game)
- 6-hole: Intermediate (knows the basics of golf but still improving skills)
- 3-hole: Beginner (just learning the game of golf)
There is no charge to participate. Lunch and water will be provided along with a tournament t-shirt and awards at the end of play.
Unified Golf events are held each year in:
- Sioux City
- Cedar Rapids
- Davenport
- Dubuque
- Granger/Jester Park
- Muscatine
- Spencer
- Vinton
