We continue our partnership with Special Olympics and started a four-week golf program at Topgolf Pompano.
12 Special Olympics athletes attended the program taught by Chapter coaches Robert Ferzoco and Greg Mingo.
Two more Special Olympics programs have been approved and scheduled for September and December.
Special thank you to Andrea Augustine and the Topgolf Team for donating the hitting bays and welcoming our athletes.
Chapter student Hudson McDuff started playing golf a little over a year ago. He joined our program at AllGolf at C.B. Smith Park. Ever since Hudson has been bitten by the golf bug! He practices all the time, created a self-made practice facility at home, and maintains his own Instagram handle that showcases his progress (@hudsongoesgolfing).
Hudson has exceeded expectations by selflessly volunteering his time every Sunday at AllGolf. He is a prime example of what can happen when goals are set and plans are executed. Keep up the great work!

Join our Ace Program! Ace is an additional capstone program built for teens to help them game-plan what’s next. It integrates the skills and inner strengths they’ve developed at First Tee and points them toward exploring, investing in, and building a clear plan and assets for their next step. In 2024, there will be 7-10 “ACE Days” that will take place during a day off of school where students will gather to complete projects and play golf. This is a program that is a benefit to your eligible students and is in addition to your already existing First Tee program. Students must be 16 years old and an active participant in our program for at least 3 years. Please visit our registration website.

Elleson Mccumber, a student at The Benjamin School, hosted a Day of Service at Dyer Park. Elleson recruited students from the school and visited our facility to assist with programs. The group assisted the junior classes, special needs participants, learned about teaching kids how to play golf, and helped maintain the facility by filling divots and picking up stray balls, broken tees, and trash off of the driving range.
Preston McGhan, Coach Glen’s youngest golfer, is beginning to throw his hat into the competitive golf arena. He started playing the Links Tour for fun and will be starting private lessons soon. He has a long and bright future ahead of him.
While it is great to medal, sometimes it is better to compete and learn more about your game. Danny Tadeo and Mateo Muñiz were disappointed in the outcome of their rounds, but we are glad to hear of their constructive feedback about their gameplay. Neither had excuses, instead, each of them walked away with an improvement plan.
We have another student joining the world of competitive golf. Congratulations Kaden Shabaj!! You have a lot of talent, and you can go very far.
DeMarco Satterfield set a goal to start playing tournaments this year. While his first tournament did not go as well as he hoped, we are very proud of DeMarco for competing in his first tournament.
We captured a candid moment! Judah Lang carded his first Birdie in tournament play this month.
Elise Mucklow had to miss some golf classes because she was preparing to compete in Robotics tournaments. On March 22nd, she was asked to sing the National Anthem at the FIRST Robotics competition at UCF. She is a young woman of many talents.
