The showcase event, set for February 28 th, on the Club’s 18-hole course, caps off a packed programme blending competition, community engagement and celebration, a reflection of a tenure widely credited with elevating the profile of Ladies’ Golf at the Club.
Festivities tee off on February 23 rd, with a Caddies and Staff Golf Day, recognizing the critical role played by support teams in the Club’s day-to-day operations.
The following day features a Senior Golf Day and Mini Clubnite, offering competitive and social engagement for members.
Lady Captain Rodah Mukami said, “This tournament is not just about my exit, but it is about the incredible journey we have walked together as a club. Over the past two years, we have seen our ladies grow in confidence and competitiveness, and our juniors step up with remarkable promise. That is the true victory.”
On February 25 th, attention shifts beyond the course with a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative alongside a Greensomes tournament.
The Lady Captain’s Prize curtain raiser follows on February 26 th, before a Koroga-themed Chip and Putt event on February 27 th, which injects a social and family-friendly element into the build-up.
The main tournament on February 28 th, is expected to attract a field of 300 players, marking one of the largest turnouts in recent memory.
The Golfing festival concludes on March 1 st, with a Juniors Mug Tournament, underlining the Club’s growing investment in youth development.
Mukami exits the office having presided over notable milestones with Ruiru Golf Club which has recently marked significant milestones in women’s Golf, firmly establishing itself as a leading venue for prestigious competitions.
The Club hosted the KLGU Ladies 54-Hole Tournament, alongside the inaugural Kenya Ladies Golf Union (KLGU) Golfer of the Year (GOTY) event, putting Ruiru on the National map for high-profile Golfing events.
In September last year, the club also hosted the Pendant Tournament for the first time, one of the oldest and most respected medal-style competitions on the KLGU calendar, further underscoring Ruiru’s growing prominence in the Golfing community.
Beyond hosting tournaments, the club has remained committed to broadening access to the sport for women and youth while simultaneously raising performance standards.
This vision is already yielding tangible results with Ruiru now boasting of two female Golfers in its elite team and an increasing number of young Lady Golfers who are actively developing their skills.
Many of these Juniors are steadily progressing toward single-handicap status, positioning them as the future ambassadors of the game.
The tournament has attracted strong Corporate backing, led by Family Bank as the key sponsor with additional sponsors that includes Dhahabu Land Ltd, Croton Motors, Aurora Scents, Lady Captain and Friends, Compnet Advisory Systems, Fantom Estates, Auto Master and Shell, a sign of growing commercial confidence in the club’s flagship event.
Ruiru Sports Club is a private member-owned corporate and family-oriented Club with an elite, culturally diverse membership.
It is an all-round sports facility that caters to individuals of all ages, offering opportunities to explore and improve in a variety of sports while promoting a culture of fitness, growth and healthy competition and the Club is among the most promising clubs within the area.
With a huge acreage of land, it has growth potential and the club is also strategically located on the Thika Superhighway.
