The United States Adaptive Golf Alliance (USAGA) intends to make playing golf a reality for the 18 million physically disabled who would like to play the game. Founded in 2014, the United States Adaptive Golf Alliance:
is a 501(C)3 national coalition of adaptive golf organizations with common goals and objectives.

Members are “grass roots” nation-wide adaptive golf organizations working together so their current successful programs and tournaments can be expanded and run more effectively with shared resources and larger outreach programs for the special needs community.
