Driving Change: Sport Meets Purpose in Topgolf Dubai’s Partnership with Special Olympics UAE
Friday 16th May 2025; Dubai, United Arab Emirates: Celebrating the power of inclusion through play, Topgolf Dubai has partnered with Special Olympics UAE to launch a transformative and empowering golf training programme for People of Determination.
By increasing accessibility, removing barriers and supporting a diverse community of players, Topgolf Dubai proudly joins the global movement to expand participation for Special Olympics athletes and create meaningful opportunities in sport.
Inclusive Summer Events
Providing state-of-the-art golf training facilities and fostering a welcoming, inclusive environment, Topgolf supports athletes in a no-pressure environment throughout their experience. Beginning 14 May 2025, an eight-week Practice Season programme has been designed to sharpen swings in anticipation of an end-of-season competition. Qualifying players will then join participants from around the world for an International invitational tournament to be held on 26 July 2025, followed by a celebration of the stories and successes from the year.
Support For Every Need, Empowering Every Player
Rooted in a mission of inclusivity, Topgolf Dubai welcomes guests of all ages and abilities, from families with newborns to guests in their 90s and including People of Determination. “Topgolf Dubai was built with one clear mission: to welcome everyone,” said Mike Walton, General Manager of Topgolf Dubai. “Inclusivity isn’t just a concept here; it’s a commitment embedded into every aspect of the venue.”
That ethos is reflected in the venue’s accessible layout, cutting-edge technology, and a culture that celebrates community, inclusion and participation. Mike adds, “Since opening in 2021, we’ve witnessed the incredible power of sport to connect, uplift, and inspire. We believe these opportunities should never be limited by ability or access. That’s why we’re especially proud to work alongside Special Olympics to welcome new athletes to our venue and into the world of golf.”
“This partnership is an important step for extending our commitment to providing year-round training and competition for children and adults with intellectual disabilities,” added His Excellency Mohamed Khalifa Al Nuaimi, Board of Trustees Member, Special Olympics UAE. “Through technology, accessibility and community, Topgolf Dubai is helping create an essential new avenue to participation in competitive sport and the multiple benefits that will deliver.”
