On November 7, 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 November 8 before ushering in the Lady’s Captain prize giving night a day later that will see ladies constitute the most golfers on the day.
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.
