Our Philosophy
Without caring mentors, positive youth development just doesn’t happen. At First Tee — South Puget Sound we take coaching seriously. We believe that a meaningful, quality relationship between coach and participant is vital to our program.“Young people don’t care what a coach knows until they know a coach cares.”
As you consider volunteering for our chapter, know that the safety of our kids is our first priority. Please read our Prevention Policies to see how we conduct programs and activities at our chapter. Prevention Policy
