ON-SITE AFTER-SCHOOL CLASSES: FALL 2023
Our onsite After-School Classes are offered for students AGES 7 AND UP at the specific school. Our coaches set up fun and engaging activities and games using modified, hard plastic golf clubs (putters and wedges), tennis-like and wiffle balls, and colorful targets designed for kids. These classes take place outdoors on school property. (In case of bad weather, we will use an indoor/covered location at the school.) Students learn basic golf fundamentals, including how to hold the golf clubs and swing technique for various golf strokes, along with an introduction to the First Tee life skills concepts. All equipment is provided. Classes are organized in multi-week Class Blocks, meeting once per week from 3-4pm, or other designated time dependent on school schedule. Register through the “Register My Child” button above, and choose your class location. Additional details in each Class Block registration listing.
