Brooks Ward
Head Golf Professional, Elson Redmond Memorial Driving Range

Brooks joined the First Tee – Greater Richmond team in May 2023 as the Senior Assistant Golf Professional at Belmont. He is now made his way over to Elson Redmond to be our Head Golf Professional! Prior to joining us, Brooks worked as a Golf Instructor at The Edge Golf Academy in Richmond. During his time, Brooks had the opportunity to work with Coach Lee Coble and the Virginia Union golf team during their 2023 Spring season.

Brooks is a graduate of James Madison University. His favorite course is Lakeview Golf Course in Harrisonburg, VA because that’s where he learned to play the game of golf! Some of his hobbies include riding rollercoasters all over the USA, photography and reading.

“I’m excited to be working for an organization that provides inclusive and inviting spaces for everyone to experience the joy of golf.”
