This unique course was set up for the physically challenged and is supported by the Edwin Shaw Hospital Foundation. The course consists of three holes with three sets of tees per each hole. There are cart paths with many added adjustments. There are no water hazards, but there are sand bunkers. There are special features including wheelchair-accessible paths, customized golf carts and handrails to the greens. All the front tees have open and direct shots to the greens, so people won't have to overcome the course hazards. Hole #1 plays slightly uphill. Hole #2 requires an accurate shot to hit the smallest of three greens. Hole #3, the finishing hole, has a long, narrow green. The green fees indicated are for playing nine or eighteen holes.
