Leadership Considerations:
When playing the game of gold with participants with physical limitations it is important to create
adaptation to increase the persons mobility. The integration of a mobile wheel chair can help
individuals with paraplegia reach areas in the course where they never thought possible. Also adding
grips to the clubs can increase grip strengths and increase accuracy. This works well with people who
have Arthritis amputations, stokes and birth defects.
