Overview
The First Tee of San Jose is to develop youth through golf throughout the South Bay. Our mission is to impact the lives of young people by providing learning facilities and educational programs that promote character development and life-enhancing values through the game of golf.
Participants learn to appreciate diversity, resolve conflicts, build confidence and set goals for their future. Programs focus on Nine Core Values – honesty, integrity, sportsmanship, respect, confidence, responsibility, perseverance, courtesy and judgment.
The key components of our programming consists of classes, certification, outreach, instruction, events, and opportunities. |

Classes
We offer classes in the spring, summer and fall over a 9-week period and 1-week camps in the summer. Classes are from an hour to an hour and a half long. The cost is $60 for each class session and $75 for each camp. Contributions are welcome. The First Tee does not turn away any student because they can not afford the class. Scholarships are available upon request.
The Summer 2010 Class Schedule will be released May 1, 2010.
