National program introduces young people to golf.
The Maine Golf Foundation, which is composed of the other major golf associations in the state, signed a letter of intent to take over operations of The First Tee of Maine.
The First Tee is a national program that introduces young people of all backgrounds to golf and the life lessons it teaches. It teaches these lessons through nine core values -- honesty, integrity, sportsmanship, respect, courtesy, judgment, confidence, responsibility and perseverance -- on the course and in class-room settings.
The MGF's goal is to continue to run the First Tee program at Riverside Golf Course in Portland and grow the program statewide.
