(First Tee – Silicon Valley 2025 Annual Review Published 1/28/2026) In 2025, 5936 Course Participants and School Students, who were 85% Ethnically Diverse and 64% Low-Income, experienced our life skills and golf skills program. All of our youth development programs (on-course, in-school, and after-school) experienced growth during the year.
Expanding our course program at Rancho del Pueblo Golf Course continues to be a top priority. About 5% more kids and teen participants took classes in 2025 vs. 2024. Our school program also grew 8% in 2025 vs. 2024 as we served students in more Title 1 schools than ever before.
Our central business challenge is to adequately invest in our capacity to serve the growing number of youths in our programs while increasing the quality of what we do. As a mentoring organization, our people are key to that quality. We are extremely proud of our 2025 full-time program staff (11), part-time instructors (34), and volunteer coaches (215) for their commitment and care. In 2026 we will continue to support and provide them with the resources needed to make a positive impact.
