We are looking for coaches and volunteers – all experience levels are welcome
At First Tee – Greater Philadelphia, we help kids discover what’s inside of them, guide them to strengthen it and mentor them to put it into action in everything they do.
To do this, we need enthusiastic and caring individuals to serve as positive mentors and role models to kids and teens of various backgrounds. Our coaches’ ability to develop impactful relationships with our participants is the backbone of our program.
You don’t have to be a golf pro (or even a good golfer), we will provide the training you need! Our training system is built on research-proven methods of positive youth development, providing coaches with the tools to make kids feel safe, included and empowered.
Our chapter relies on volunteers year-round to accomplish our mission. With opportunities available from Greater Philadelphia to South Jersey, there’s a place for you in our community.
Volunteer Role
- Deliver First Tee Program to kids and teens (we’ll provide training!)
- Ensure a safe and inclusive learning environment
- Assist with setup and breakdown of activities
