Mission Statement
To impact the lives of young people by providing educational programs that build character, instill life-enhancing values and promote healthy choices through the game of golf.
Description
The First Tee of Tucson (FTT) chapter was established in 2004 by the Tucson Conquistadores. For over a decade, FTT has provided daytime, after-school and weekend golf and life skill programming to children ages 5 - 18 at an increasing number of program locations in the greater Tucson community. FTT currently operates seven (7) program locations and engages thousands of children annually from all corners of the Tucson community, especially disadvantaged children, as participants in our programs.
The overarching goal of The First Tee program is to use age and skill appropriate activity-based learning approaches. These curricula shape the lives of young people from all walks of life by reinforcing values like integrity, respect and perseverance through the game of golf. Year-round, the Tucson First Tee programs create an environment where young people are introduced to a lifelong sport while learning the basic golf motor skills and the inherent values of the game. Each program session introduces and/or reinforces participants’ knowledge of and facility with the First Tee Nine Core Values and Nine Healthy Habits while learning the game of golf. The Nine Core Values include: honesty, integrity, sportsmanship, respect, confidence, responsibility, perseverance, courtesy, and judgment. The Nine Healthy Habits include: play, energy, safety, mind, family, vision, friends, school, and community.
