Our mission is to positively impact the lives of young people from all backgrounds by providing educational programs that build character, instill life-enhancing values and promote healthy choices through the game of golf. First Tee uses golf as a platform to provide character education to kids through integrating key lessons of the game with life lessons. First Tee Life Skills Curriculum also instills in kids the Nine Core Values of honesty, integrity, perseverance, confidence, respect, responsibility, courtesy, judgment, and sportsmanship. The program serves more than 2,000 kids annually in winter, spring, summer, and fall youth development programs at 12 golf facilities throughout King & Snohomish counties.
