Local blind/deaf golfer completes another successful season
By Fred Sherwin
Aug. 29, 2025

Local blind/deaf gofer Kevin Frost added another title to his collection this past summer after winning the Ontario provincial championship in his sight category. He also placed third in his sight category and eighth overall at the Canadian Open Blind Golf Championships in Simcoe earlier this month.

Unfortunately, he missed out on repre-senting Canada at the ISPS Handa World Championships which were also contested in Simcoe immediately after the Canadian championships.

But his proudest accomplishment this summer was in hosting a series of six youth blind golfing camps at Anderson Links.

“That’s a medal in itself,” says Frost about the camps. “Just watching the kids hit the ball for the first time and do their own par 3, it’s just fun to watch them and learn the game. It’s more uplifting than anything this season for me.”

Twenty-two kids in all attended the six camps. Some of them attended more than one camp and there were several returnees from last year.

For a majority of the kids, however, it was their first time holding a golf club and hitting a golf ball.

The camps are fully funded by the Ottawa Senators Foundation and are co-run by Frost and professional golf instructor Steve Oostrom from the Ottawa Golf Academy.

One of the first time golfers was nine-year-old Hannah who said she had “a lot fun” and plans to come back next year.

“I loved it,” Hannah said when asked to describe her experience.

This was the second year the youth blind golf camps have taken place with the support of the Ottawa Senators Foundation, and Frost is already looking forward to holding the camps again next year, as are many of this year’s participants.
