SBM Bank has pumped 1.5 million Kenya shillings in sponsorship to the annual prestigious Muthaiga Golf Club Lady Captain’s Prize Golf Tournament that teed off on Monday and i set to culminate on Saturday.
The sponsorship includes 1 million Kenya shillings in cash and 500,000 Kenya shillings in kind, as SBM Bank continues to reinforce its partnership with the club as well as its dedication to supporting the sport.
The week-long tournament teed off with the Caddies Tournament to give the unsung heroes of golf a chance to play followed by a financial literacy training session courtesy of SBM.
Tuesday was a day for the ladies as they engaged not just on the golf course but also through different fun activities followed by an experiential session by SBM at the end of the day before paving way for the usual Club Nite on Wednesday.
On Thursday, the senior members at the club, aged above 60 years, will have the chance to play against their peers in the one-of-a-kind Seniors Tournament to appreciate the role the game continues to play in helping keep the seniors healthy.
Sponsors and other invited guests are set to take to the greens on Friday before ushering in the Lady’s Captain prize giving night on Saturday that will see ladies constitute the most golfers on the day.
Speaking at the club on Monday during the presentation of the sponsorship, Muthaiga Golf Club outgoing Lady Captain Regina Gachora outlined the significance of the support from SBM, noting that it will go a long way in helping achieve the week’s goal.
“We are grateful to SBM bank for their support in this year’s tournament. This will go a long way in helping us execute the series of events we have lined up for the week. We have so many members who would like to participate and therefore we saw it fit to make it a full week event to allow them the opportunity to feature,” she said.
SBM Bank Director Consumer Banking Beth Muthui noted that the sponsorship was geared towards continuing the partnership with the club as well as supporting the growth of the sport, specifically among women.
“This sponsorship underscores SBM Bank’s commitment to work with Muthaiga Golf Club as well as supporting the development of the game in Kenya. We look forward to an exciting and successful tournament that will see everyone involved make meaningful connections. Golf for women continues to grow in Kenya and we are proud to play a part in making that happen,” she said.
SBM continues to work closely with Muthaiga Golf Club including offering golfers a 40% discount on green and training fees when they pay using their SBM bank card in an agreement that is set to run until July next year.
