Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>The first season of the Katogo Invitational Golf Series will wrap up at Entebbe Golf Club in yet again an interesting format Saturday.<\/b><\/p>\n

The quarterly event\u2019s final round presented by I&M Bank is expected to attract a field of more than 100 players to the par-71 course in a new format called \u2018Oh Gosh\u2019.<\/p>\n

The playing format, again far from usual, is designed in a way that the field will compete in pairings and each individual\u2019s score per hole mattering, according to tournament director Paul Kaheru.<\/p>\n

\u201cForm teams of two players each. Record your individual nett score on each hole. The worse nett score of the pair on each hole is the score that will count,\u201d said Kaheru.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, each team has a choice of six Holes where the better score counts. But, you must declare this to your marker before you tee-off at the next Hole,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

For players, who will will largely come from either the Katogo or Kabalaza teams, getting familiar with the rules will be key yet wrapping up the championship is equally important.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been a memorable year with the Katogo Invitational. Friends have been made, a lot has been won while battles on the greens have turned into friendships at the 19th hole,\u201d said I&M\u2019s head of marketing and corporate communications Annette Nakiyaga.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are doing it all over again this Saturday (today) for one last time and it can only get better,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

Other tournament partners Merca Limited who distribute cars from Victoria Motors, in partnership with GA Insurance, have staked a new Renault car for the hole-in-one prize and other winners will take home air-tickets courtesy of RwandAir.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are yet to know the hole though (for the car),\u201d said Katogo chairman Hannington Mpima.<\/p>\n

Katogo, whose patrons are Kiryowa \u2018K.K\u2019 Kiwanuka and Edward Kabuchu, is an Entebbe Club member group comprising about 100 members since 2008 and they would come together for a meal after a round.<\/p>\n

Katogo\u2019s rivals are Kabalaza, who relax at the balcony at the clubhouse parallel to the Entebbe Airport route.<\/p>\n
