CHECK OUT THE NEWS PAGE FOR NEWS ABOUT WAADGA AND RESULTS FROM AROUND THE WORLD A Modification of the Rules of Golf for Golfers with Disabilities This publication contains advice and permissible modifications to the Rules and they provide a means by which disabled golfers may play equitably with able-bodied golfers or golfers with other types of disabilities. “Study the rules so that you won't beat yourself by not knowing something.”
The trend of golfing rules and custom…….is toward elaborate niceness; we repress our coughs while others are swinging, we join in the hopeless hunt for another’s lost ball, and on the green we avoid stepping in another’s putting lines in a veritable Morris dance of exaggerated courtesy. Our behaviour is better here than elsewhere, because we are happier there than elsewhere - John Updike |

Golf is the closest game to the game we call life. You get bad breaks from good shots; you get good breaks from bad shots - but you have to play the ball where it lies.
