Italy; IBGA Member Country
Blind Golf Italy is an Association created to promote the golfing activity of blind Italian athletes - association created to promote golf for the blind in Italy and abroad.
Blind Golf Italy was established in November 2013 by Chiara Pozzi Giacosa and Andrea Calcaterra with the intent and conviction of being able to better interact with the sports activities of Italian players both nationally and internationally.
During 2013 the Italian Federation of Disabled Golf, on which the Blind Department depended, ceased its activity, being absorbed by the Paralympic Sector of the Italian Golf Federation.
An agreement was signed between the parties, with responsibility for Blind Golf Italy to manage, in synergy, the activities related to the Blind golf world.
