About Us

We enable kids to build the strength of character that empowers them through a lifetime of new challenges. By seamlessly integrating the game of golf with life skills curriculum, we create learning experiences that build inner strength, self-confidence, and resilience that kids carry to everything they do.

First Tee – Jersey Shore was founded in 2005 as Jersey Shore Junior Golf.  There are two main learning facilities – the First Tee learning facility at the William Larkin Golf Course @ Colonial Terrace (Ocean Township) and the First Tee/JR Smith Learning Center at Ocean County Park.  

First Tee – Jersey Shore serves all children, ages 4-17.  For more details about our facilities and programs, please contact our offices at (732) 759-2170 or e-mail us at [email protected].
