Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>US Kids Golf in partnership with the Junior Golf Foundation (JGF) and NCBA Bank haVE announced the launch of the 2022\/23 NCBA \u2013US Kids Golf Nairobi Local Tour.<\/p>\n

The junior tournament aims to tap, nurture and grow talents among young golfers across the country and will be played across several golf clubs within Nairobi.NCBA Bank has sponsored the tournament to the tune of Sh2 million which will go towards the organisation of the events which will run until January 2023.<\/p>\n

The eight-leg junior series will tee-off this Sunday at the Thika Sports Club, before heading to Windsor, Karen, Muthaiga, Sigona, VetLab and Royal Nairobi. It will then return to Muthaiga for the final.<\/p>\n

The events will feature both boys and girls aged between five and 18 years who will compete in age-appropriate competitions.<\/p>\n

NCBA Bank’s Jacque Muhati said: \u201cThis is part of our long-term commitment to the growth and development of the game of golf in Kenya, which has great potential for growth. We want to make the sport more inclusive by involving young kids. This will be an opportunity for the young lads to learn more about the sport and also help them hone their skills.”<\/p>\n

So far, the 2022 NCBA Golf Series has featured two junior tournaments with the first event having been held in Serena, Uganda and at the Karen Country Club.<\/p>\n

The third junior competition will be held on December 15 and 16 at Limuru Golf and Country Club.<\/p>\n

James Ondigo, the Junior Golf Foundation Tournament Director, said: \u201cNCBA has once again demonstrated to be a valuable partner when it comes to supporting the growth and development of junior golf in Kenya. We are delighted that once again, the company has moved in to support this tournament which we believe will go a long way in taking junior golf to the next level.”<\/p>\n

Registration for the tournaments is open through the website: www.uskidsgolf.com.<\/p>\n
