Equipment Donations

In-Person Donations

First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin prides itself on being able to provide the proper equipment to all of our many program participants.  This is made possible through the generous donations of new and gently used equipment from our community.

We currently accept donations of the following items:

General Golf Equipment

  • Junior golf clubs
  • Junior carry bags with stand
  • New or like new golf balls (in small boxes or bags)
  • New golf gloves
  • New youth & junior golf shoes
  • Training aids
  • Adult golf clubs manufacturered in the last 20 years
  • Adult carry bags with stand
  • Range finders
  • Shag bags

Due to limited storage space, please consider donating adult clubs through the Next Round Club Donation Program.

To ensure our participants have access to the most developmentally appropriate equipment, we kindly request that all donations have been manufactured within the last 20 years. This helps us maintain a consistent level of quality and ensures that our young golfers are equipped with clubs that meet modern standards, enhancing their learning experiences and enjoyment on the course.

Used Golf Balls

BreakfastBalls.Golf is the Official Used Golf Ball Recycling Partner of First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin.

Have a bucket of range balls collecting dust in your garage? Put them to work. When you donate used golf balls to First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin, our program participants get first access to what they need. Any excess inventory is then collected and processed through BreakfastBalls.Golf, a company dedicated to giving pre-loved golf balls a second life. Proceeds from those sales come back to support our programs serving kids across Southeast Wisconsin.

How It Works

Donate your used golf balls at any of our drop-off locations. We make sure our program participants are fully equipped first, then BreakfastBalls.Golf coordinates regular pickups of surplus inventory throughout the year. Proceeds from ball sales are remitted directly to First Tee — Southeast Wisconsin to support local programs. Please bring your balls in a box, bag, or other container, as we don’t have receptacles on-site.
