I thank God for this,\u201d Lim Lim said while receiving his prizes.Over 61 golfers from various clubs in Uganda participated in the tournament. Mugoya, also the Mbale Golf Union Treasurer, called on corporate companies and sports lovers to join the Golf Club.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome people have encroached on the club land but we are engaging them to make sure they leave the land in peace without pulling ropes,\u201d MUgoya said.\u201cWe also have a problem with the neighbouring community who graze their animals in the golf land. This affects the green belt.\u201dMugoya is also aspiring to become the president of Mbale Sports Club at a time when the golf club faces challenges of encroachment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also don\u2019t have permanent sponsors to organize such games. We volunteer ourselves and we pull our money to organize any events which is costly, \u201che said.Mbale Golf Union is the only surviving golf club with a big belt in the country. They have also introduced a program of nurturing children between the ages of 7-13 years.\u201cWe want to nurture their talents so that when we leave, they will take over. We want them to know and love golf,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Okuiring, the Mbale Golf Club Captain, said there is a problem of misinformation in the Golf Club.\u201cThe announcement for any event should be done by Uganda Golf Union to avoid colliding while organizing such events. We need to have unity within us,\u201d Okiring said.Barbra Kwaga, the acting president of Mbale Sports Club, thanked all golfers who managed to come and participate in the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>MBALE GOLF CUP<\/p>\n<p>Net Winner: Dr Lim Lim 72LadiesSharon Kawanyi 75Juliana Nampewo 86Men Group CMugoya Uthman 76Duncan Emegu 76Group BGeorge Magombe 79Emmnaule Wamimbi 77Group ADaniel Ochieng 83Collins Bulaffu 83Seniors WinnerPaul Okiring 76<\/p>\n<p><b>ykitunzi@ug.nationmedia.com<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
