⛳️ That’s a wrap on another amazing summer of First Tee!

As we close the book on this year’s summer program, we want to say thank you to everyone who helped make it such a success.

Throughout the summer, our participants didn’t just work on their golf swings—they learned valuable life skills through the First Tee Game Changers. From Honesty, Respect, Energy, and Integrity to Courtesy, Judgment, Vision, and Play, our golfers embraced each lesson while growing in confidence, character, and sportsmanship.

We also spent countless hours developing the fundamentals of the game, from putting and chipping to full swings on the driving range, learning about clubface control, and taking those skills onto the golf course. It was rewarding to watch each participant improve while encouraging and supporting one another along the way.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to our incredible First Tee coaches for investing their time, energy, and passion into our golfers each week. We also want to thank all of our families for their support and for sharing your children with us throughout the summer.

Most importantly, thank you to our participants. Your enthusiasm, positive attitudes, and willingness to learn made every session something to look forward to. We hope you continue to practice, play, and carry the First Tee values with you both on and off the golf course.

Have a wonderful rest of your summer, and we can’t wait to see you back at First Tee next year! 💚⛳️

⛳️ Another great week of First Tee is in the books!

This week, our participants focused on four important First Tee Game Changers: Courtesy, Judgment, Vision, and Play. Through golf activities, games, and challenges, we learned how showing respect, making thoughtful decisions, setting goals, and having fun all help us grow—not just as golfers, but as people.

On the driving range, we also spent time working on clubface control, helping our golfers better understand how the position of the clubface impacts ball flight and how consistent fundamentals lead to more consistent shots.

Unfortunately, we had to miss our Wednesday sessions due to sloppy course conditions after the rain, but we appreciate everyone’s understanding and flexibility. The course needed a little extra time to recover, and we’re looking forward to getting everyone back out there next week.

A big thank you to all of our participants, families, and our incredible First Tee coaches for making this another fun and successful week. We hope everyone has a safe, relaxing weekend, and we’ll see you back on the course next week! 💚⛳️

🌧️ Wednesday Morning First Tee Cancellation 🌧️

Due to wet course conditions and the expectation of continued rain throughout the morning, Wednesday’s First Tee session (July 8th) has been canceled.

The safety of our participants and the condition of the golf course are our top priorities, and today’s weather simply isn’t cooperating.

We hope everyone stays safe and dry, and we look forward to seeing everyone at our next session. Thank you for your understanding!

⛳️ Another great week of First Tee at Edgebrook Golf Course and Brookings Country Club!

This week, our participants continued sharpening their golf fundamentals while building confidence with every swing. It’s been exciting to watch everyone improve through hard work, encouragement, and plenty of smiles along the way.

Our life skills focus this week was Energy and Integrity. We talked about bringing a positive attitude to everything we do, giving our best effort, and making the right choices—even when no one is watching. Those lessons are just as valuable off the course as they are on it.

As we head into the Fourth of July weekend, we hope all of our First Tee families enjoy a safe, fun, and relaxing holiday with family and friends. We look forward to seeing everyone back on the course next week!

❤️🤍💙 Happy Fourth of July weekend!

⛳️ What a great start to our First Tee season at Edgebrook Golf Course and Brookings Country Club.

This week, our participants focused on the fundamentals of golf—grip, stance, alignment, chipping, putting, and making solid contact as we worked to knock a little rust off after the offseason. It was great to see everyone back on the course, learning, improving, and having fun together.

Beyond golf skills, we spent time discussing two important First Tee values: Honesty and Respect. Whether it’s keeping an accurate score, showing good sportsmanship, caring for the golf course, or encouraging fellow participants, these life skills are just as important as any shot we hit.

We’re proud of the effort, attitude, and positive energy our golfers brought to the first week. We can’t wait to see their growth throughout the summer!
