Be a Game Changer. Become a Coach

Our Philosophy

First Tee – Greater San Antonio is about so much more than golf – it is about strengthening our community. Without caring mentors, positive youth development just does not happen. We believe that a meaningful, quality relationship between mentors and participants is vital to our program.

As you consider being a part of our chapter, know that the safety of our kids is our priority. Please read our Prevention Policies to see how we conduct programs and activities at our chapter.
