Scratch Golf

Scratch Golf provides the opportunity for children and teens with congenital heart disease or who are at risk for heart disease to be considered for a FREE golf camp that takes place each summer.

Scratch Golf is open to patients ages 6-17. Consideration for admittance to camp is based upon review from the patient’s medical staff. Participants must commit to the multi-day Scratch Golf camp, followed by a multi-week clinic at First Tee to continue the fun and golf instruction. Each First Tee chapter has numerous program locations to allow a family to choose what’s most convenient for them.
