SAN JUAN COUNTY LIFE SKILLS FOUNDATION

Empowering Youth. Supporting Veterans. Building Community.

At First Tee Four Corners, we believe in the power of golf to shape lives. By seamlessly integrating the game with a proven life skills curriculum, we help young people build character, confidence, and resilience—tools they can use both on the course and in everyday life. Golf mimics life: it teaches patience, focus, integrity, and how to bounce back from setbacks. And best of all, it's a sport people can enjoy at any age.

Our programs serve youth ages 6–18 across the Four Corners region, with a special focus on inclusion. We partner with organizations like Special Olympics and Big Brothers Big Sisters to ensure every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive. We also work closely with schools on the Navajo Nation to deliver culturally aware programming that builds leadership and life skills for Native youth.

In addition to our youth work, we offer the First Tee Veterans League—a community-based program that provides camaraderie, purpose, and healing for military veterans through golf.

Whether it's a 10-year-old learning perseverance or a veteran rediscovering joy through sport, First Tee Four Corners uses golf as a powerful tool for personal growth—and we’re just getting started.
