The Tattersall Youth Development Center at The First Tee Chesterfield Golf Course, as well as the First Tee of Richmond, was established to provide educational golf programs for junior players. This comprehensive learning facility includes an 18-hole golf course, a three-hole practice loop, a large grass practice tee, a putting green, and a short-game practice area. There's also a staff of qualified coaches and golf instructors that can help you improve your score no matter what your weakness is. As a learning course, it might not be what low handicappers are looking for if they want a challenge, but it's a perfect place for beginners and high handicappers to get some practice with the game. The layout is very forgiving with wide-open fairways that offer plenty of room. The greens are fast and sometimes framed with bunkers. There are several par-3 holes that will give you a chance to work on your short game.

Great day on the course

Course was in great shape. The greens were perfect and rolling fast . Plenty of leaves in the fairway making finding a great shot hard. This is to be expected this time of year . Staff was friendly as always. Hit em straight!

A lot of fun.

Very nice short course with a degree of difficulty that keeps it interesting. The sand traps were in good shape too.

Yikes

Yeah this was a dog track. Greens were pretty decent however tee boxes and areas by cart paths were horrendous. Apparently this course is in the process of renovation but I think it’s an absolute rip off to play here considering they don’t have a cart girl or other amenities.

Very Impressed!!

I am from Florida and was visiting my daughter and her family who lives in Midlothian. My son-in-law and one of my grandsons wanted to go golfing. This course was our choice. And I'm glad we chose it. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The clubhouse facilities were very nice but what about the golf course itself? Well, I must tell you I was very impressed with this course. This is pretty special to have a course dedicated to First Tee., and the course isn't an afterthought. The course itself is awesome. The tee boxes, fairways, and especially the greens were in excellent shape. The course is short, but it is a lot of fun to play. I'm glad I got the opportunity to experience this course! And yes, I really recommend this course!!

Beautiful Course, Great experience

While visiting the Midlothian area, I had the opportunity to play this course with my son-in-law and grandson and I sure am glad I did!! What a beautiful course! What a gem!

'd like to start by thanking Colin who was working at the front desk. He was extremely courteous and made us feel welcome. He took time to answer our questions and get us checked in. As for the course, it was immaculate! The tee boxes, fairways, and greens were in great shape. It was quite a contrast from the courses I play near my home in the Tampa, Florida area where the courses have suffered from drought and poor maintenance. I was really impressed with the layout of the course and how well the course was maintained.

I sincerely hope that I will be able to play this course again on my next visit to Midlothian to see my daughter and her family. And as I said earlier, I was really impressed with this course and I am grateful and appreciative to have played it.

I love what you all are doing for the youth in your area! Thank you for the opportunity to play this lovely course!

$50 for a tee time at this course is ridiculous

This course is a short “developmental” course and not by any means a real challenge however $50 for a tee time is ridiculous here. The course is not in great shape and I’ve played way better courses for almost half the price. I’ve lost count how many pitch marks were not repaired, cart paths are horrible - huge bumps, cracks…etc.

There’s no grill, no cart girl, and pace of play was really slow as there are a lot of hackers that play here that don’t have great golf etiquette and there’s no Marshall to enforce this.

Won’t play here again unless it’s a $28 “Hot Deal” because that’s all that this course is worth. Play at The Highlands or Brickshire.

Struggles

The course was in decent shape the dormant tee boxes were very messy and almost bare ground. The for most part seemed that they didn't want to be bothered with customers problems or concerns . They were publicly complaining about customers disturbing them infront of other patrons in the club house and didn't care who was listening

Such a scam

This course used to be a fun place to play and get some practice in. This is a children’s course that is 4600 yards from the tips and it’ll take you 5 hours to play costing you 50 bucks at that which is criminal. No cart girl, refreshments or food. Back when it was 25 -30 bucks to play it was ok but for 50 bucks hitting out of dirt no thank you . Save your money there are way better courses for the money.

Awesome course

This day was a great day to get out and golf. I was impressed that the course was well maintained. The pace of play was great. I noticed a lot of golfers were out so I knew this was a great course to play at. I will be back for sure.
