IBB Captain’s Inaugural Golf Tournament kickoff on Friday
“We are hosting the captains’ inaugural tournament, which is to usher in the new EXCO that was elected in April this year. It is a tradition that we do every year.
After the inauguration of EXCO, a tournament is held to showcase the golfing prowess of our members.
The EXCO normally lay out their programmes for the tenure, as you can see that the paramount programme is the maintenance of the course, the improvement of the course, and work as started in earnest.
“During our campaigns, we also talked about zero tolerance for waste, especially plastic, we have started implementing it. We will also upgrade the clubhouse, among other numerous things,’’ he stated.
Also, the Lady Captain, Dame Julie Donli, OON, said that this year’s inaugural was going to be unique.
“Captain’s inaugural is usually organised by the Captain of the club. “This inaugural is used to usher in the one-year tenure of the captain, and to unfold the yearly plans, we are able to tell everyone what we have in stock for them.
We are able to meet all the members and golf with them. Basically, that is what the captain’s inaugural is all about.”
Donli also mentioned that golf is absolutely essential to the mental health of every human being.
The prize and award ceremony is billed for Sunday, August 25.
