“We are extremely thankful to the Dell Technologies Championship for once again helping us put on the Youth Golf Day here at The Links” said Kyle Harris, Director of Operations of The First Tee of Massachusetts. “We’re really looking forward to another exciting day for our participants. The kids will have the opportunity to receive some skill instruction and be further exposed to our core values and life skills.”
Located just four miles away from TPC Boston, The Links at Mass Golf, which includes an 18-hole par 3 course, serves as the headquarter facility for The First Tee of Massachusetts.
Over the course of the one-hour clinic, participants will be reminded about The First Tee Nine Core Values- honesty, integrity, sportsmanship, respect, confidence, responsibility, perseverance, courtesy and judgement.
Approximately 90 minutes later, participants will gather and enjoy an exhibition by a member of the PGA Tour, who is part of the 2018 Dell Technologies Championship field.
Previous PGA TOUR guests include: Shawn Stefani, Patton Kizzire, Erik Compton, Ken Duke and Freddie Jacobson.
“The opportunity for the kids to interact with the PGA TOUR players is always a lot of fun for our kids,” said Harris, who stated that there are always plenty of autograph and photo opportunities for participants. “The players have always been gracious with their time and really help to make it a special event.”
The Youth Golf Day & PGA TOUR Player Exhibition is open to families and kids of all ages and abilities. Harris encourages everyone to stop by The Links at Mass Golf in Norton on August 30th.
“We hope to use this fun event to expose as many local children to the game of golf as possible. Players of all skill levels can have fun participating in the clinic, and watching the pros hit shots is always very impressive.”
