David Cohn, CEO of First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin, joined Rob Hernandez on Talking.Golf, a Wisconsin.Golf podcast, to share what our chapter is all about.

Golf is the vehicle, but character is the destination. David talked about how First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin serves young people ages 4 to 18 across ten counties through on-course programs, a school program reaching more than 100 partner schools, and community partnerships that meet kids where they already are.

In 2025, we impacted 45,514 young people across Southeast Wisconsin. Give it a listen to learn more about how it all works and how you can get involved.

What a way to wrap up the year! Our First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin family came together for our end-of-year cookout to celebrate the friendships, growth, and good times we’ve had on and off the course this year.

It was our biggest turnout yet, families played a round together, then stuck around to relax, play games, and enjoy the afternoon.

We are grateful for our kids, families, volunteers, and coaches who made this year one to remember.

Thanks to Jason Jahnke for sharing these awesome shots he took that day!

Another summer in the books at First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin!

Over the past few months, our kids showed up ready to learn, grow, and have fun. They worked on their swings, but more importantly, they worked on themselves. Confidence built one putt at a time. Friendships made on the driving range. Life skills that will carry them far beyond the course. We are so proud of every young person who picked up a club with us this summer.

Here's a look back at some of our favorite moments from the summer. Swipe through and see the joy for yourself.

The fun doesn't have to stop here! Fall registration is open now, and we would love to see your golfer back with us. Spots fill up fast, so sign up today at go.firstteesew.org/programs!

First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin was thrilled to support Bank of America's Golf with Us Clinic, alongside Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Milwaukee!

Kids got to learn golf skills and life skills side by side, with a special appearance from former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson. From first swings to big smiles, this clinic was all about showing kids that golf truly is a sport for everyone.

Thank you to Bank of America for making days like this possible for our community!

When it rains, our kids turn into golf course architects.

During today's rain delay, our coaches gave participants a fun challenge: design your own golf hole. The results were incredible. Yardages, out of bounds markers, water features, and one very determined "Big Tree" guarding the fairway.

Moments like this show how First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin builds more than golf skills. It builds creativity, critical thinking, and a genuine love for the game.
