The Fabulous Females of Golf is proud to announce the benefactor of the 2013 Charity Golf Outing is The First Tee of Houston/F.M. Law Park (www.thefirstteehoustonfmlawpark.org).
The First Tee is a youth
development initiative of the World Golf Foundation and is supported by the
leading organizations in golf including the Masters Tournament, LPGA, PGA of
America, PGA TOUR and United States Golf Association. There are nearly 200
chapters of The First Tee located throughout the country and in five
international locations. The F.M. Law Park Chapter is based out of the Houston
Park and Recreation Junior Golf Learning Facility.
Houston Parks and Recreation Department’s Junior Golf
Program became home to The First Tee of Houston at F.M. Law Park when the
Houston Parks Board, Inc. was awarded its Chapter license in October 1999. The
First Tee of Houston at F.M. Law Park provides a place where youth not only
learn to play golf, but also learn invaluable life skills. The First Tee's
research has proven that our participants are learning and using life skills
such as goal setting, interpersonal communication, self-management and
resistance skills in their daily lives.
Through The First Tee Life Skills Experience, The First
Tee of Houston at F.M. Law Park teaches participants the importance of
maintaining a positive attitude, making decisions, setting goals and
transferring values such as responsibility, honesty, and respect from the golf
course to everyday life. Participants progress through The First Tee
certification levels of PLAYer, Par, Birdie, Eagle, and Ace while being
introduced to different golf and life skills.
The
First Tee of Houston at F. M. Law Park relies on individuals and organizations,
both locally and on the national level, for funding to make the program
successful and accessible to young people in Houston area.
Join The Fabulous Females of Golf in supporting such a worthy cause. Personal donations can be made directly on the company website. A portion of all proceeds from the 2013 Charity Golf Outing will be donated to The First Tee Houston/F.M. Law Park.
