2010 General Information
The First Tee of Charlottesville will once again offer four Sessions - Spring, Summer I, Summer II and Fall. Each Session will have a Class for Linksters (5 & 6 years old) with maximum size of 24 and a Class for TFT Golfers (7 to 17 years old) with a maximum size of 120. The TFT Golfer Class will be divided into 4 to 6 sub groups based on age and Certification level (Golfer, Par, Birdie, Eagle and Ace). All new participants in the TFT Golfer Class will start in one of the Golfer sub groups.

We will hold a Meet & Greet prior to each Session to introduce the participants to the Coaches, familiarize the participants and parents with our facilities and operating rules and to allow time for questions.

Please note:

Fees have increased. Scholarships are available - contact Phillip Seay.
Registration must be made on-line using the City of Charlotteville Parks and Recreation Rec Trac system. Instructions are available below.

The First Tee Life Skills Experience

The First Tee Life Skills Experience is one of the unique features that differentiates The First Tee from many other successful junior golf programs.  Through the Life Skills Experience, participants learn valuable lessons about the importance of maintaining a positive attitude; how to make decisions by thinking about the possible consequences and how to define and set goals from the golf course to everyday life.
The First Tee Certification Process

The First Tee wants everyone who completes The First Tee Experience to have acquired basic golf skills and to be able to demonstrate certain fundamental life skill concepts – such as interpersonal communication and the importance of rules and etiquette.
