Over 200 players are set to compete in the 17th leg of the 2024 NCBA Golf Series, taking place this Saturday, August 10, at the 18-hole Limuru Country Club.
The series, which kicked off in March, has traversed Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Rwanda, attracting over 2,000 thousand golfers.
The event offers golfers a chance to qualify for the grand finale, scheduled for Muthaiga Golf Club in November.
Six players from each qualifying event – including the top male and female finishers in Divisions One, Two, and Three, as well as the overall Junior winner – will advance to the final round.
To date, 102 golfers have qualified for the grand finale based on their performance in previous series events.
Speaking ahead of the upcoming tournament, NCBA Group Managing Director, John Gachora, said they are thrilled to bring the NCBA Golf Series back to Limuru.
“This series has exceeded our expectations as it has created a vibrant golfing community and provided us with invaluable opportunities to engage with our customers,” said Gachora.
He said they are looking forward to witnessing exceptional talent on the course and strengthening their bonds with the golfing fraternity in that region.
NCBA will plan 100 indigenous trees at Limuru Country Club as part of the bank’s commitment to environmental sustainability:
“As part of our corporate social responsibility, we are planting. This initiative aligns with our broader sustainability goals and contributes to the preservation of our natural environment,” said Gachora.
The Limuru event follows successful tournaments at Thika Sports Club and Jinja Golf Club in Uganda.
