At First Tee, we’re empowering kids and teens through the game of golf. Our program is available to all children and youth ages 4 -17 at the Jersey Shore.

Clubs and other equipment are provided by First Tee if needed. Golferships are available for anyone in need - we will not turn a child away due to financial hardship. Classes are taught under direction of First Tee trained coaches and our life skills curriculum is woven into every session.

🌧️⛳️ RAIN OR SHINE, NOTHING CAN STOP NETWORKING DAYS OF PLAY — POWERED BY WATSON LINKS!

Our participants Jack N., Christian & Dylan were invited by our board member Kevin Hargadon to join him for a day on the course at Beacon Hill Country Club.

An incredible opportunity highlighting the power of access, personal mentorship and relationship building. Kevin’s time on the course with our participants created meaningful opportunities to learn, connect and grow — all while enjoying the game we love.

And we had a special guest appearance from Lily, one of our own young participants — and Kevin’s daughter! ⛳️❤️ She got to learn from her dad, spend time with the “big boys,” and see firsthand what perseverance looks like when the rain starts falling. 🌧️⛳️

A little rain didn’t stop the golf, the laughs or the connections!

Thank you, Kevin, for investing your time and mentorship, and to Watson Links for your partnership, creating opportunities that open doors and provide experiences that go far beyond the game.

Rain or shine, we show up. We play. We grow.
