A starter told me that Volusia is the most popular executive course but he didn't have the actual rounds played.
There were 2,562,000 rounds of golf played on The Villages 42 Executive Courses in 2022. To my knowledge, there's no published available breakdown of individual courses. I'm sure it's public information and available from the Golf office.

Championship courses are a horse of another color, because they are privately owned. I ran thought some number last week, just out of curiosity:


There are approximately 90 Tee Times per 27 Hole Golf Course in Prime Time (1st/2nd Wave). That equals 360 Players per course. There are (10) 27 Hole courses. That equals 3600 players.

Between 8 a.m. & 3:00 PM there are 57 Tee Times at the 18 hole courses. 228 Players/course/per day. That totals 684 Players

Total Available play = +/- 4300 (18 hole rounds) per day.

For discussion purposes, let's assume that 70% of the Championship Course Tee Times are taken on a year around basis. That would mean 4300 x .7 x 364 = 1,095,640 rounds.

Feel free to check my math.
