First Tee - Greater Tyler

First Tee – Greater Tyler helps kids build confidence, character, and life skills through the game of golf.

For many kids in our community, access to structured, positive environments outside of schoo

l is limited. That’s where we step in. Through mentorship, coaching, and consistent support, we give kids a place to belong and the tools to grow into who they’re capable of becoming.

Golf is just the vehicle. What they gain goes far beyond the course.

When you give, you’re helping a kid build confidence, overcome challenges, and see what’s possible for their future.

Testimonials

“Before First Tee, my son was pretty quiet and kept to himself. Now he walks in with confidence, talks to coaches and other kids, and actually believes in himself. That’s the difference this program makes.” - First Tee Parent

“Some of these kids just need someone in their corner. When they realize they have that here, everything starts to change how they act, how they think, and how they see themselves.” - First Tee Coach 

“First Tee gave my child something every kid needs, a place to belong. The confidence and friendships she’s built here go way beyond golf.” - First Tee Parent
