Rangel said last year they served over 1,500 kids at the First Tee- Greater San Antonio, a youth development organization introducing the game of golf to young people, located on 915 E Mulberry Avenue.The summer session registration will open next month for participants ages five to 18 years old.Since last summer, eight-year-old Isaac Garcia has been practicing his golf swing at the center.
“Coming here they teach them a lot of values like honesty, being courageous, going out there and participating in sports so that’s what I noticed in Isaac. He’s a lot more outspoke, confident,” Raul Garcia, Isaac’s dad said.“Have fun, be focused and keep practicing,” said Garcia.
