Over 300 golfers are expected to grace the Course, with home player and 2023 winner in this leg John Odhiambo among the golfers set to battle for the top prize in the club’s leg of the series.
The leg will offer golfers a coveted chance to qualify for the grand finale scheduled to be held at Muthaiga Golf Club in November.


Six players from each qualifying event including the top male and female finishers in Divisions One, Two, and Three, and the overall Junior winner will secure their spots in the final round.


This year’s edition launched at the Royal Nairobi Golf Club in February has transversed beyond Kenya, featuring tournaments in Uganda, Tanzania, and Rwanda, underscoring NCBA’s commitment to promoting golf across East Africa.


Over 100 golfers have already qualified based on their performance in previous events, with the latest qualifiers emerging from the recent regional qualifier in Rwanda, which culminated last weekend.


The Rwanda event last weekend held at the Kigali Golf Resort and Villas attracted over 180 players with three Golfers booking their slots for the upcoming finale based on their average scores from the two qualifying legs held in the Country.


The Golfers include Paul Ntaganda, Murekatete Alphonsine and Bethlehem Umuzabibu who emerged top during the tournament.


NCBA Group Managing Director John Gachora stated, “As we return to the Royal Nairobi Golf Club, where our 2024 series was launched, we are thrilled to witness the growth and enthusiasm in the golfing community. This series is a testament to our dedication to the sport and offers a unique platform for golfers to showcase their skills on an international level. We are proud to support this dynamic sport that fosters community and skill development across the region.”
Further, he highlighted the Bank’s dedication to environmental sustainability which has been a key pillar of the 2024 NCBA Golf Series.
“As part of our corporate social responsibility, we are planting indigenous trees everywhere we set foot, and we will plant 100 trees at Royal Nairobi Golf Club again, just as we have done in previous events. This initiative aligns with our broader sustainability goals and contributes to the preservation of our natural environment and by extension, our playing environment,” said Gachora.
Apart from the Royal Nairobi Golf Club qualifying leg two more qualifier legs, Nyali Golf & Country Club and Great Rift Valley Lodge, are set to be played locally to set the stage for the grand finale.
