15 Year Anniversary Perseverance Campaign

Want to know what the First Tee – Coastal Carolinas is all about? Check out this video!

First Tee – Coastal Carolinas’ top priority is the health and safety of our participants, employees, coaches and volunteers across our territory. We have built lesson plans and activities to reflect the local, state and CDC guidelines due to COVID-19. Our coaches are wearing masks during activities and ensuring that the participants practice social distancing.  Our chapter staff is currently working remotely to do our part, but we do have one staff person in the office Monday-Thursday for your needs.   If you need to contact a member of the staff, please see the Staff Page for direct email.

 What We Do

In 2020,  First Tee – Coastal Carolinas;

The Grand Strand, Brunswick County, & Eastern North Carolina

will be working to expand our Life Skills Experience programs throughout our footprint in partnership with our schools, volunteers, golf industry leaders and the business community at large. Our goal is to reach at least 30,000 youth in 2020.

Our Nine Core Values™ –

Honesty, Integrity, Sportsmanship, Respect, Responsibility, Courtesy, Confidence, Judgment and Perseverance

– are embedded in all First Tee programs.

We provide these Character Building Lessons across the Carolinas through 3 main program types:

SCHOOL PROGRAM

The School Program is taught by Elementary School Physical Education teachers across our counties and is prevalent among many of First Tee chapters across the United States. The program is taught by Physical Education teachers because it is conducted within the schools during scheduled weeks of P.E class, grades K-5.

 SCHOOL DAY PROGRAM

School Day Programs takes place once a week for 4 weeks in the Fall and 5 weeks in the Spring. The difference between this and The School Program is that this program is for fourth graders, and taught by trained First Tee local coaches at green grass facilities. Fourth graders from each school are bussed out during school to receive 90 minute programs of Core Values, Golf Activities, & most importantly FUN!

AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS

The After School Programs are offered in all 3 of our regions. They consist of 8 sessions in the Spring and Fall, which consist of  face- to- face character building activities geared to providing a fun, life improving experience utilizing golf as an outlet in educating youth on our patented 9 Core Values.
