THE PHIT ACT: GREAT FOR GOLF
With nearly 83 million Americans who are
physically inactive, golf is one outlet that can
be used to help get Americans of all ages off
the couch and moving.
“The best way to address our health care
crisis is to improve health through exercise
and physical activity,
” says Tom Cove,
president/CEO, Sports & Fitness Industry
Association (Silver Spring, MD).
“Golf is a lifelong physical activity that can
make a difference in the health of Americans.
The PHIT Act will encourage increased
participation in the sport.”
To encourage your local Congressman and
two U.S. Senators to back the PHIT Act, PHIT
America has created an electronic letter on
its website
(PHITAmerica.org) which can
be sent to members of Congress on Capitol
Hill, asking them to co-sponsor and vote for
the PHIT Act.
