Meanwhile, the NCBA U.S. Kids Golf Fall Local Tour tournament continues this weekend at the same venue with at least 186 junior golfers aged between 5- and 18-years old set to participate.

The tournament is jointly organized by U.S. Kids Golf and the Junior Golf Foundation Kenya (JKF), with the support of NCBA Bank as part of its continued commitment to supporting Junior Golf development in the region.

The event aims to provide the Juniors with a platform to refine their skills and enhance their competitiveness as well as offer the junior golfers a chance to qualify for international tournaments organized by U.S. Kids Golf by earning points for Priority Status.

The NCBA US Kids Fall Tour has successfully conducted seven major events at Limuru Country Club, Sigona Golf Club, Karen Country Club, Vet Lab Sports Club, and Windsor Golf Club which hosted 3 of the events. Despite some clubs being affected by floods, the resilience and dedication of the organizers ensured the successful completion of these events.

JGF tournament Director Kimani Gicheru said that the Foundation extends its heartfelt appreciations to the NCBA Group for their unwavering support and that the partnership has significantly contributed to the development and nurturing of young talent in the sport of Golf, providing a valuable platform for juniors to showcase their skills.

“Lastly, we commend the junior golfers for their commitment to the sport, adherence to the rules, and for inspiring their peers to take up golf. We also express our gratitude to the parents for their dedication and effort in ensuring that their children participate in these tournaments. Your support is invaluable, “said Gicheru.
