Winter Training Focuses on the “Why”

On Saturday November 23^rd, 10 TFTSV Instructors and 19 Mentors attended the Winter Season Training at Rancho Del Pueblo Golf Course. TFTSV instructors & mentors meet once before every season to engage in our coaching philosophy, policies, and best practices. For our most recent training our Instructors and mentors explored the “why” of our organization – why The First Tee of Silicon Valley exists and why we coach what we do. From there, our instructors and mentors explored the “how” which included building relationships, creating a community of inclusion and teamwork, and setting an engaging learning environment for our participants. The First Tee of Silicon Valley believes positive youth development happens through a meaningful, quality relationship between the coach and participant. Mentor coaches are critical to ensuring our participants have an optimum and enjoyable learning environment. Therefore, we are always looking for high quality volunteers to serve as mentor coaches. Consider volunteering for the Spring Season from March 10^th  to May 9th, 2020. Click here to learn more.
