‘More than a game’: impact of The First Tee life skills programme on positive youth development: project introduction and Year 1 findings
Abstract
This manuscript introduces our long-term project and provides Year 1 data on evaluating the effectiveness of The First Tee life skills programme in promoting positive youth development. To set up subsequent articles on this multi-phase project, we provide: (a) a review of the positive youth development theoretical framework and studies in the physical domain, (b) an in-depth description of The First Tee, a sport-based youth development programme, (c) overall project purposes and research design, (d) Year 1 samples, methodology, procedures and evaluation methods and (e) Year 1 findings for learning and transferring interpersonal and self-management skills that were taught in the programme. Findings provide initial data-based evidence that The First Tee is having a positive impact on promoting youth development in the golf context and in the transfer of life skills to other domains.

It was not possible to calculate precisely the total number of participants who provided data in the reviewed studies.
“It was not possible to calculate precisely the total number of participants who had provided data, because two studies (Armour & Sandford, 2013; Armour et al., 2013) appeared to draw participants from the same sample (of 486 students), one study (Weiss et al., 2013) reported 95 youth and 36 coaches in the total sample, but it was not clear which individuals provided qualitative data, and one study”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
