Tee Time Tutoring (TTT) is a program developed to assist our members with academic support by pairing them with a staff member or college or high school volunteer to work one-on-one for 30 minutes to an hour each week. Members that are in need of academic support can sign up by filling out an application detailing their need along with their current grades. Once we have paired a tutor based on time availability, we have a meeting with the parent, student, tutor, and staff member to make sure that we have communicated goals and expectations, set a Personal Par for achievement, and obtained a commitment to attend for the duration of the tutoring. Tutoring can be a commitment of 4-8 weeks. After the 4-8 weeks, we reevaluate and determine with the parents if they would like to continue with the same tutor for an additional 4-8 weeks as well as reevaluate their Personal Par.

The Clubhouse to College/Clubhouse to Career (C2C) is a team comprised of teenage participants from The First Tee of Monterey County. The goal is to provide resources to our members for college prep, tours, help with SAT/financial aid, and scholarships.
In addition, we would like to inspire members to explore the many fields of design in the technology industry. We plan to meet monthly, including parents, to discuss projects and field trips!

PLAYer is the introductory level of the program for ages 7-17 years old. Beginning January of 2009, all participants will enter The First Tee Golf and Life Skills Experience at the PLAYer level. PLAYer introduces how to play the game of golf with special emphasis on learning golf and The First Tee Code of Conduct, appreciating the rules and etiquette of the game, as students develop their game in golf and life.

Builds on the PLAYer level with continued exposure to the game of golf, focusing on two general life skills: Self-Management and Interpersonal Skills.

Centers around goal setting to provide participants a greater sense of purpose, direction, and motivation.

Designed for participants who have demonstrated a commitment to both the game of golf and to attaining an associated set of life skills. These participants have demonstrated their ability to apply life skills, displayed a progression of golf skill acquisition and performance, and been a role model for The First Tee Code of Conduct.

This level offers advanced, post-EAGLE instruction and practice in many of the life skills introduced in the PAR, BIRDIE and EAGLE levels. Ace focuses on personal planning and reinforces interpersonal communication, self-management, goal-setting, self-coaching and resistance skills that were applied in the earlier levels.
