The First Tee program is unique because the curriculum teaches golf and life skills, using golf as a vehichle to do so. The lessons and learnings extend well beyond the golf course. The First Tee program is committed to reaching youth who otherwise would not have an opportunity to participate in the sport of golf, primarily due to financial barriers. The teachings build upon each other, enabling our students to progress in golf and life skills.

Our teaching location is the PGA Golf Center.

At the First Tee of Olympia, we conduct three six week sessions in spring and fall....

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.
