Welcome to First Tee - Jersey Shore

First Tee is a youth development organization that enables kids to build the strength of character that empowers them through a lifetime of new challenges. By seamlessly integrating the game of golf with a life skills curriculum, we create active learning experiences that build inner strength, self-confidence, and resilience that kids can carry to everything they do. We’re Building Game Changers through our junior golf programs.

At First Tee – Jersey Shore, we’re Building Game Changers by empowering kids and teens to be the best version of themselves.

By seamlessly integrating the game of golf with character-building, we create learning experiences that help kids uncover their inner strength, self-confidence, and resilience that they can carry to everything they do. Through our program, kids will learn skills that stay with them for life:  understanding and managing emotions, resolving conflicts, setting up step-by-step goals, planning for the future, appreciating diversity, and golf fundamentals and advanced techniques.
