KCB Bank Uganda is excited to announce the upcoming Uganda leg of the 2025 KCB East Africa Golf Tour, set to tee off on 28th June 2025 at the prestigious Lake Victoria Serena Golf Resort & Spa. Under the inspiring theme, “Roar on the Green,” this year’s tournament promises to deliver exhilarating golf action, fierce competition, and a celebration of regional talent.
The Uganda leg of the 2025 KCB East Africa Golf Tour is supported by key partners ICEA Lion and Kenya Airways, whose sponsorship significantly contributes to the tournament’s success, reinforcing a shared commitment to nurturing talent and fostering regional unity through sport.
Golf enthusiasts can expect a dynamic contest featuring four-ball teams competing under the Stafford format, where the best three scores per hole contribute to the team’s total. This format demands not only individual precision but also seamless teamwork, course management, and tactical shot-making, all of which are elements sure to keep spectators on the edge of their seats.
Players will navigate challenging fairways, tricky water hazards, and fast greens, aiming for birdies and clutch putts that could turn the tide of the competition. Golf enthusiasts should watch out for powerful drives, deft approach shots, and nerve-testing up-and-downs as teams battle for every stroke.
Uganda enters the 2025 tour with high expectations, following an impressive victory at the 2024 Grand Finale held at Sigona Golf Club, Kenya. The Ugandan team; Cywaai Joseph (HCP 5), Peace Kabasweka (HCP 2), Babirye Martha (HCP 4), and Abdul Nasser Kakeeto (HCP 3) clinched the title with a remarkable team score of 109 points, narrowly edging out Tanzania’s 106.
Their win brought home a KES 1 million prize to support sustainability initiatives but also earned them an all-expenses-paid trip to the distinguished Rwanda Open Golf Tournament. This stellar performance has set a high benchmark for this year’s competitors and adds an extra layer of excitement as players vie to uphold Uganda’s proud legacy.
Beyond the competition, the event will unite corporate partners, regional stakeholders, and golf fans in a shared celebration of sport and community development. KCB Bank Uganda will continue its Go Green Campaign with tree-planting initiatives at the venue, reinforcing its commitment to environmental stewardship. Whether you are a dedicated golfer or a passionate fan, the 2025 KCB East Africa Golf Tour Uganda leg promises thrilling moments, exceptional sportsmanship, and a platform showcasing the region’s finest talent as they compete for glory and a coveted spot at the Grand Finale in Nairobi this December – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8LPleFqdJg&t=318s
