The First Tee- Shenandoah Valley is the premier youth development organization that uses a Life-Skills Education curriculum and the Nine Core Values to impact the lives of young people. We provide learning facilities and educational programs that promote character-development and life-enhancing values through the game of golf.
Our program services the youth of the City of Harrisonburg, City of Staunton, Rockingham, Shenandoah, Page, and Augusta Counties. Youth ages 5-17 are invited to participate in our program. In 2024, we had over 12,000 youth participants through our golf course, school, and outreach programs. Currently our school program is being taught through 40 schools across 5 counties in the Shenandoah Valley. The School Program is led by the PE teachers with the help of First Tee staff as part of their yearly curriculum.
Our goal at the First Tee- Shenandoah Valley is to see kids finish high school with a golf club in one hand, and a diploma in the other.
To register a youth for our program, please contact us at The First Tee/Rotary Learning Center or call us at (540) 437-4239. We are located up the hill from Heritage Oaks.
