Heather Farr Blind Golf Clinic
Moon Valley Country Club
April 12, 2017
Wednesday, April 12th, the Heather Farr Blind Golf Clinic presents our
visually impaired guests the opportunity to share their skills with
kids, veterans and other visually impaired adults.  The clinic will be
held at the Scottsdale TPC Champions Course - at their various
practice facilities.

We honor Heather Farr for her bravery, passion, strength and talent.
She will be forever missed.

These are only three guidelines:

1.    The golfer must be able to walk guided, but unassisted.

2.    Please follow all instructions, ask questions if not certain for
any item, safety is our #1 priority.
3.   Have FUN!!!

If possible each golfer should provide his/her own coach if this is
not possible we will do everything in our power to provide a volunteer
coach to form a team; 4 or 5 teams will compose a small group, each
led by a golf instructor.  These instructors will provide direction to
golfers and coaches at each station. Successful blind golfers will
offer additional support and instruction.   Each team will receive
instructions at each of the 3 stations by a golf instructor and a
blind golfer and coach. (Putting, Chipping/Pitching, and Full swings
on the driving range)
