First Tee - Greater Seattle

What an incredible day at Ladies on the Links!

Thank you to every woman who joined us, our generous sponsors, auction donors, and the team at Broadmoor for making this day possible. Because of you, more girls will have the chance to learn, lead, and thrive through First Tee - Greater Seattle!

We look forward to seeing our new families this week at our new family orientations! Join us to get familiar with your new facility and meet some of the coaches your participant will spend their time in classes with. Summer classes begin next week!! ⛳️

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our 11th Annual Drive, Chip & Putt Clinic!

This clinic is all about helping young golfers develop their driving, chipping, and putting skills while learning in a fun and supportive environment. Participants spent the day practicing alongside experienced coaches, building confidence, and challenging themselves to try new things.

Good luck to all of the participants competing in local Drive, Chip & Putt qualifiers this season. We are excited to see all that you accomplish and will be cheering you on every step of the way!

Today we spotlight Coach Geno! His positive attitude and attentiveness make him a wonderful coach and someone that both coaches and participants can look up to. He always shows up with a smile. We are so lucky to have him on our team.

Make sure you say hey to Geno when you see him this summer!

Hole in One alert!!! Congratulations to Evan C. on his hole in one at his PGA Jr. League practice at Jackson Park Golf Course this Sunday!

The first Hole in One of the season, Evan earned his team, the Par-Tee People, a pizza party after their game this Sunday!

We are thrilled to celebrate First Tee participant Lucas Kornylo, who has been selected to attend this week's Congaree Global Golf Initiative (CGGI) Camp in South Carolina! 🎉
