Programs & Instruction

	Programs & Instruction The First Tee Life Skills Experience™ is one of the features that differentiates us from many other successful junior golf programs. The First Tee Life Skills Experience™ is predicated on the belief that if you expose young people to the inherent values of the game of golf, surround them with caring The First Tee Coaches and volunteers, and teach them life skills, then you increase the likelihood they will acquire and demonstrate The First Tee Nine Core Values™.

	Certification In order for a participant to move on to the next level of certification, they must demonstrate that they understand and can apply the life skills and can perform the specific golf skills associated with that certification level.

The First Tee Life Skills Experience

The First Tee Life Skills Experience is one of the unique features that differentiates The First Tee from many other successful junior golf programs. Through the Life Skills Experience, participants learn valuable lessons about the importance of maintaining a positive attitude; how to make decisions by thinking about the possible consequences and how to define and set goals from the golf course to everyday life.

The First Tee Certification Process

The First Tee wants everyone who completes The First Tee Experience to have acquired basic golf skills and to be able to demonstrate certain fundamental life skill concepts – such as interpersonal communication and the importance of rules and etiquette.

The First Tee Coach

The First Tee Coach Program is an educational training program that prepares staff and volunteers at Chapters of The First Tee to deliver The First Tee Life Skills Experience, which includes the TARGET program, as well as the Par, Birdie, Eagle and Ace levels of certification.

Assistant Coach Training

The First Tee Assistant Coach Training for individuals who want to be more involved with the ongoing coaching and mentoring of The First Tee participants at the Chapter level but may not be able to spend the time required to become recognized as a The First Tee Coach.
