First Tee Tennessee - Greater Knoxville

First Tee Tennessee - Greater Knoxville First Tee provides young people with the opportunity to learn nine core life-enhancing values!

The First Tee of Greater Knoxville was created in 2004 to provide young people with the opportunity to learn nine life-enhancing “core values” such as honesty, integrity, and sportsmanship. Our goal is to help at-risk youth make a successful transition into adulthood by teaching them to set and achieve realistic goals, deal with conflict and challenges, and develop critical life skills. Our program is based at the Williams Creek Golf Course in East Knoxville. In 2011, based upon our record of success in the Knoxville community, we were asked by The First Tee National Office to geographically expand our efforts by becoming The First Tee of Greater Knoxville to promote the First Tee curriculum into the counties surrounding Knoxville. Over a 5 year period, this expansion will enable us to reach over 20,000 young people in 25 youth-serving organizations at 10 different facilities in 50 elementary and middle schools. Since 2012, we have expanded our program to 4 new facilities in Knox County 1 in Blount County and 1 in Sevier County.

First Tee members like Jansen embody the First Tee game changer mentality.

Jansen set out this July to raise money for the next generation, playing as many holes of golf as possible to help fund the future. Jansen surpassed his fundraising goal! Thank you, Jansen, for making such a positive impact on the program!
