The First Tee junior golf program doesn’t just get kids on the course, it offers them exciting opportunities for growth. With the help of The First Tee national corporate partners, more advanced participants can apply to attend these golf and leadership events. These events often become life-changing experiences allowing them to meet new people, play some golf, achieve greatness, and show off our Nine Core Values in action.

Participant Recognition

A/B Honor Roll The First Tee recognizes outstanding academic achievement of all participants through its A/B Honor Roll program. All participants, regardless of age, are eligible for this recognition. At the end of each semester, participants should bring their report card to their chapter. The First Tee Scholars Program The Scholars Program is a distinction awarded to participants who excel in academics, leadership, character development, and chapter and community involvement. The designation of Scholar brings with it eligibility for scholarship opportunities and national events. Kasserian Ingera Scholarship The First Tee Staff Giving Campaign raises money for The First Tee Scholarship Fund, “Kasserian Ingera” which will provide a scholarship for up to two participants to help fund their education after high school (college, community college, or vocational school).
