GYSBI golf tournament tees off today

Lusignan Golf Club has announced its partnership with Guyana Shore Base Inc (GYSBI) to present an exhilarating golf tournament scheduled for today (March 23).

With a commitment to fostering community spirit and well-being, this event promises to be a highlight on the golfing calendar.

The tournament will feature a dynamic format: a two-person best-ball scramble over 18 holes with a shotgun start. Participants will experience the thrill of strategizing with their partners to achieve the best possible score.

Handicap calculations will add an extra layer of excitement, with a formula incorporating 35% of the higher partner’s handicap and 15% of the lower partner’s handicap. This ensures fair and competitive play for all participants.

Players are encouraged to register with a partner; however, solo participants need not fret, as the club’s manager will assist in pairing them up on the event day.

Exciting prizes await the winners, including recognition for the best net score, longest drive, and nearest to pin. These accolades add an extra incentive for players to showcase their skills on the course.

Robin Muneshwer, Executive Director of GYSBI, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “GYSBI proudly champions the spirit of community and well-being through our sponsorship of the upcoming Golf Tournament. Just as we prioritize safety and efficiency in our operations, we recognize the profound importance of sports in fostering physical health, mental resilience, and social cohesion through sports activities. With its blend of precision, strategy, and camaraderie, golf exemplifies these values.”

LGC Secretary Chet Bowling added, “The LGC is proud to partner with GYSBI. The partnership showcases GYSBI’s demonstration of their cooperate social responsibility. We are pleased and look forward to future collaborations.”

All participants are advised to coordinate with the club’s manager on tournament day to collect their scorecards, settle tournament fees, and promptly proceed to their designated tee boxes at 12:30 pm.

The crowning moment of the event will be the presentation of prizes, scheduled for approximately 5:30 pm, marking the culmination of a day filled with camaraderie, competition, and sportsmanship.
