Launching School and Community Programs

We want to introduce the First Tee program into youth organizations and schools all over Puerto Rico. This program is specially designed for kids and teens and provides opportunities for physical education classes, Boys & Girls Clubs, and other youth-serving groups. With the First Tee, young people learn invaluable life skills, such as honesty, integrity, and leadership while also learning the game of golf. We believe this program will positively impact Puerto Rican youth by providing them with a unique experience that develops character and prepares them for life. By 2024, we plan on opening these programs at 5 different locations around Puerto Rico. See other programs to the right. ->
