The
2017 The First Tee Metro Tour schedule is below for your information. Please note that we have scheduled more events this year, and have included multiple events for each level.
Except for certain events (Par and girls-only events), participants must be at least 12 years of age and currently in Birdie, Eagle, or Ace levels of The First Tee. We cannot make exceptions to these criteria due to the need to maintain pace-of-play in return for the kindness of our hosts. For girls-only and Par level events, participants must be 9 years of age and participating at Par level (or above as indicated).
Participants are expected to walk and carry their own clubs throughout each event, and be able to play without assistance while maintaining pace-of-play of approximately 12-14 minutes per hole over 9 holes. Tournaments are 9-hole events unless otherwise indicated in the schedule.
The Team Event (#17) and the Caves Valley event (#19) are not shown on the
registration page. The players for these events will be chosen by their chapters based on ability and number of events supported during the Metro Tour season schedule.
Fees include Metro Tour membership of $20 for the season, in addition to $10 per event, advance registration required. Participants wishing to play must
sign up online. The fees help to defray costs. The number of players for most events will be restricted to ten from Howard County.
