9-hole tournament to be held at Medford Lakes Country Club
On Thursday, April 27, the Middle Atlantic Blind Golf Association (MABGA) is holding a golf opportunity for visually impaired individuals. The event will be a 9-hole golf tournament followed by a luncheon for participants.
The upcoming event will be hosted by Medford Lakes Country Club, located in Medford Lakes.
“We are thrilled to host this event for the Middle Atlantic Blind Golf Association,” said Rob Mondelli, general manager of the country club. “It’s especially exciting for our club and members as our assistant golf pro, Frank Hesson, is the coach for Mario Tobia, one of the best golfers in the country.”
MABGA was formed in 1948, and for over 68 years has been assisting both junior and adult individuals with the sport of golf. Each blind golfer is paired with a volunteer coach who performs as a mentor throughout the golf season. Participants are welcome and can be paired with blind golfer and coach. Spectators are encouraged to come out to the country club and cheer the golfers on.
