What We Do
The Children’s Course, home to First Tee – Oregon, is located in Gladstone, OR, between the Clackamas and Willamette Rivers. The property features a 9-hole par-3 course, an outdoor learning facility, an indoor Youth Learning Center, and an Event Space — and it proudly serves as Oregon’s home of the First Tee.
We offer year-round junior golf programs for children ages 5 to 18 at courses in Portland, Eugene, and beyond, including in-school programming. Golfers of all skill levels are welcome, and financial aid is always available to ensure that every child has the opportunity to participate.

We teach life skills and core values through the game of golf and help kids become Game Changers in Life.
Thanks to our team of dedicated coaches, volunteers, staff and board members, we are able to offer year-round junior golf programs at golf courses (in Portland and Eugene), in schools and through community partnerships. Participants include golfers of all skill levels, ages 5 through 18! Financial aid is always available.
We are grateful to have volunteers assist with our mission in roles that range from golf assistant coaches (you don't even have to be a good golfer) to golf course clean-up and maintenance, special events, retail, marketing, design, PR, admin and professional services.
