OUR IMPACT ON VETERANS

The Salute Military Golf Association aims to meld a love of country and love of golf in an effort to support the mental and physical rehabilitation programs of post-9/11 wounded and injured veterans. SMGA golf professionals, skilled in teaching adaptive golf, understand the unique needs of veterans returning home from service and have witnessed first-hand the powerful benefits the game of golf can provide in improving quality of life of wounded service men and women.

PHYSICAL & MENTAL REHABILITATION

Golf embodies strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, and mental discipline, all central qualities of a successful rehabilitation program. The camaraderie and lasting friendships SMGA warrior golfers forge among themselves have helped many return to active duty or successfully reintegrate into civilian life.

Military Families Serve Too

The SMGA recognizes that when our nation’s men and women serve our country, their families do too. Since 2001, over 2.5 million service members deployed in support of the wars. These long deployments are often stressful for those family members left to support the family and home. Because of this, the SMGA promotes a family-inclusive golf instruction environment and encourages clinic participation from our veterans’ families. All family and caregivers can participate in our clinics at no cost.

The SMGA provides our proven adaptive golf programs to wounded and injured veterans in every state in the country. No matter where you are, the SMGA has a program for you
