TOTS on the Tee: $250 (Ages 3-4)

You can expect participants to discover and explore the very basics of the game of golf through station/game-based learning, also developing their athletic and life skills. This is a 6-week program, you will see golf-based stations and athletic based stations as we believe in the ADM (American Development Model) which focuses on appropriate activities based age of participants.

FUNdamental Movement: $270 (Ages 5-10)
The FUNdamental Movement class is designed for children ages 5-10. The session contains 8 hourly classes. You can expect to see participants experience, discover, identify, and demonstrate fundamentals of the game of golf, incorporate First Tee Core Values and develop athletics skills as we strongly advocate participants should become great athletes as well as great golfers. At the end of this class, we are confident that participants will be able to name the parts of a golf club, understand how to safely use a golf club, have a basic understanding of what club to use for different golf shots, and have an increased ability to perform athletic skills.

PRE-TEEN Get Course Ready: $250 (AGES 7-12)
Pre-Teen Get Course Ready is broken into 6-week sessions where you can expect the participants to be developing all fundamental facets of the game of golf to start their on-course journey. They will learn the life skills of First Tee, and develop athletic skills and movements which are critical in becoming a healthy and happy child, along with a more coordinated golfer. During each class participants are split into 3 to 4 smaller groups, typically chronologically and developmentally skill appropriate, allowing for a more efficient learning environment. We will create a fast paced, fun environment through station/game-based learning. Students will be exposed to all core skills that are necessary to play on the golf course from full swing, pitching, bunkers, chip shots and putting and they will be exposed to playing our state-of-the-art academy holes to begin their on-course experience. 
LOCATION: Tuesdays and Thursdays at Bing Maloney GC / Wednesdays at William Land GC

Little Linkers: $400 (Ages 7+)
This program is an on-course, developmental, skill-building based program. The class is on Saturdays during the spring and fall and it is on Tuesdays during the summer, with tee times starting at 1pm. Each week participants will be learning to track key on-course statistics for improvement, keeping their score (with the help of a coach), learning, and experiencing important rules and pace of play strategies.
Our spring/fall sessions are built for technical and rules/etiquette development. Whereas our summer session has more of a tournament feel. During the spring and fall participants tee off from different distances depending on skill level and will move depending on their development. Whereas, during the summer participants play from First tee age related yardages, helping them become more comfortable in tournament conditions.
