Launched in 2021, the NCBA Golf Series has grown from a series of local tournaments in Kenya into a regional tour spanning Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Rwanda | uniting thousands of golfers under one banner of competition, connection, and community impact.
The 2025 NCBA Golf Series wrapped up in fashion befitting its growing stature | refined, competitive, and brimming with community spirit. The grand conclusion took place at the Mövenpick Hotel Kigali, where a prize-giving dinner co-hosted by NCBA Bank celebrated how far golf in Rwanda has come.
“Golf, for us, is a reflection of shared aspiration. At NCBA, we believe in walking alongside our customers and communities | in business and in every pursuit that builds connection and progress.”

NCBA Golf Series 2026 is proudly delivered with our partners.
From a series of qualifying rounds in Kenya to a four-country movement | here is how NCBA Golf Series became East Africa's premier amateur golf circuit.
Launched in 2021, the NCBA Golf Series was conceived to unearth golfing talent, promote healthy competition, and build personal and professional networks across East Africa. What began as local tournaments in Kenya has since expanded into a regional tour spanning Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Rwanda | drawing thousands of golfers each year.
NCBA also runs the biggest corporate golf academy in Kenya, with over 4,000 players, underscoring the bank's lead role in promoting youth golfing talent across the region.
In a defining moment for Rwandan sport, NCBA Rwanda and Kigali Golf Resort & Villas signed a transformative partnership promising to “Change the Story” | including how sport can intersect with sustainability and community development.
The inaugural Rwanda edition brought together over 200 golfers across two major tournaments, culminating in a finale where the top Rwandan players earned the chance to represent the country at the NCBA Golf Series Grand Finale at Muthaiga Golf Club in Nairobi.
“Conquer the Course is about more than golf. It's a symbol of our purpose as a bank. We are here to change the story | to make every swing, every tree, every opportunity count.”
Managing Director, NCBA Group
NCBA's regional ESG strategy turning golf into a platform for community impact. Together with KGRV, NCBA has committed to planting over 10,000 trees around the course and beyond | 3,000 are already in the ground | alongside health insurance coverage for over 3,000 residents around the course.
NCBA's flagship annual golf tournament brand, now in its second Rwandan edition. It brings together business leaders and rising local talent on level ground, united by precision and passion for the game.

Playing groups are assigned by the draw, which is published the day before each event. You cannot pre-select your playing partners, but you can indicate a session preference (morning or afternoon) during registration and the draw will try to accommodate it.
The format is 18-hole Strokeplay. Each player keeps their own scorecard and verifies it with their playing partners at the end of the round. Scores are collected and verified by the organising team after each round. Both Gross (actual shots) and Nett (shots minus handicap) scores are recorded.
If you need to cancel, please contact the organising team as soon as possible via WhatsApp on +250 783 987 657 so your place can be reallocated and kit adjusted accordingly.
