Event Beneficiary The First Tee of Hawaii is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) youth development organization that teaches life skills through the game of golf. Youth ages 7 to 18 learn full-swing, short-game, putting skills, and rules and etiquette. Through the course of golf instruction, they also learn how to set goals, how to evaluate their decision and judgments, and how to have confidence in themselves. The First Tee lessons are taught at local golf courses and military bases and also at our home facility for The First Tee of Hawaii which is located in Waialua, HI. The First Tee of Hawaii was chartered as a Chapter of The First Tee on May 1, 2006 as The First Tee of Oahu. During the first year of programming in 2006 under a Letter of Intent (LOI) The First Tee of Oahu had 12 participants. On May 1, 2008 The First Tee of Oahu became The First Tee of Hawaii, becoming a chapter for all of the islands of Hawaii and there were 112 youth that took part in chapter programs. In 2010, the chapter saw significant growth in the number of participants, which saw 800 youth attend chapter programs. The research, development, and delivery of The First Tee Life Skills curriculum sets The First Tee apart from other junior golf programs and elevates and defines it as a youth development organization. The First Tee of Hawaii currently holds chapter programs on the Big Island of Hawaii, Oahu, Molokai, and Maui. The First Tee of Hawaii delivers outdoor Golf and Life Skills education programs over the course of eleven months, January through November. A staff of dedicated, enthusiastic, well-trained coaches who embrace The First Tee coaching Philosophy and the Life Skills Curriculum is critical to the success and further growth of the chapter. The First Tee Nine Core Values Honesty-Integrity-Respect-Courtesy-Judgment-Confidence Responsibility-Sportsmanship-Perseverance
