About Golf

Golf is a precision club and ball sport, in which competing players (golfers) use many types of clubs to hit balls into a series of holes on a golf course using the fewest number of strokes. Golf courses each feature a unique design and typically consist of 9 or 18 holes. Special Olympics Wisconsin offers 9-hole stroke play for individual golfers, and alternate shot competition for unified pairs.
