First Tee - Central Valley

When women come together, incredible things happen—and Ladies on the Links is proof.

This tournament is about more than a day on the course. It is about purpose, passion, and creating real impact in our community. Every swing, every putt, and every moment shared helps raise funds that go directly back into First Tee – Central Valley. Providing young athletes with the clubs, coaching, and equipment they need to grow and succeed.

Because access changes everything, when girls are allowed to play, they’re not just learning golf; they’re building confidence, resilience, leadership skills, and a belief in themselves that goes far beyond the game.

With your support, we are helping shape the next generation of women golfers! Young, driven leaders who are ready to take over the course, their communities, and the world.

This is bigger than golf. This is how we grow the game and create lasting change.

Sign up today to be part of the change.

It Starts With a Golf Club… But It Becomes So Much More

At First Tee – Central Valley, we often say that golf is just the vehicle. What we’re really building is community.

First Tee is a youth development organization that uses the game of golf to help young people build confidence, character, and life skills that will carry them far beyond the course. But if you ask our participants, parents, coaches, or volunteers what makes First Tee special, many of them won’t start by talking about golf. They’ll talk about the people. The friendships. The mentors. The feeling of being known, supported, and encouraged to grow.

That’s because First Tee was never designed to simply create better golfers. It was created to help build stronger kids, stronger families, and stronger communities.

Every time a child steps onto one of our practice tees, they’re stepping into something bigger than a class. They’re entering a space where they learn how to work with others, overcome challenges, communicate with confidence, and lead with integrity. They’re surrounded by coaches who know their names, peers who cheer them on, and a community that believes in who they are becoming.

And the impact doesn’t stop with our participants. It reaches parents who find support in other families. It reaches volunteers who discover purpose through mentorship. It reaches local businesses and partners who choose to invest in the next generation. It reaches our entire Central Valley community.

In a world that can sometimes feel disconnected, First Tee is working to create something different—a place where kids spend less time behind screens and more time building real relationships, learning real life skills, and becoming young people who will one day lead the communities around them.

So what is First Tee?
It’s a golf program.
It’s a mentorship network.
It’s a safe place to grow.
It’s a family.
It’s a community.

And every day, together, we’re building Game Changers. 💚
