3rd AmCham Golf tournament tips for this Saturday

The Lusignan Golf Club will come alive this Saturday with hundreds of spectators and competitors flooding the lush greens for the Third annual American Chamber of Commerce Guyana (AmCham Guyana) golf tournament.
The competition will be hosted at the Lusignan Golf Course (LGC), East Coast Demerara, and will welcome in excess of 100 competitors on the greens for a day of competitive action and networking.
According to the entity, the tournament is now firmly established on the corporate calendar, becoming a sought-after platform for connection and collaboration. This year’s edition is oversubscribed, reflecting the strong and growing demand within Guyana’s Private Sector for high-quality networking opportunities that combine professional engagement with collegial competition.
With the inaugural tournament, hosting some 20 teams (80 players), and the 2025 edition registering 26 teams and 104 competitors, AmCham noted that such steady expansion underscores not only the rising prominence of the event but also the increasing relevance and convening power of AmCham Guyana within the national business landscape.
As such, during the event’s launch this week, AmCham President Iman Cummings also highlighted the competition’s steady growth.

“This is a highly anticipated sporting event that has become very popular amongst the corporate community. The event has grown significantly over the past three years; this year we have 112 participants and 28 teams with more than 250 spectators expected to come out,” Cummings shared.
She added, “We remain ever so grateful for the support from the corporate community, from our membership and from the Private Sector at large. We’re really looking forward to a fantastic tournament this year.”
Meanwhile, AmCham executive director Richard Leo used the occasion to express their commitment to corporate social responsibility.
“This initiative for the annual golf tournament really and truly affirms AMCHAM Guyana’s commitment to building good CSR [corporate social responsibility] and shared values and connecting Guyanese entities as well as US entities but strengthening the bonds through a clean game of golf and sportsmanship,” Leo told the gathering.
While the competition has seen subscriptions from a long list of major business entities, Digicel Business is amongst the title sponsors.
As such, Communications Manager Gabriella Chapman expressed her eagerness to be a part of the event.
Chapman highlighted, “Digicel Business is proud to be one of the title sponsors for the third annual AmCham Golf tournament. We genuinely believe in what this event represents, which is bringing US and Guyanese companies in the same room, on the same field with the same goal, which is building genuine relationships.”

“Guyana is in a remarkable moment of growth, and Digicel Business wants to be a major part of that,” the Digicel manager further stated.
AmCham Guyana noted that they remain committed to promoting healthy lifestyles, sport, and education as integral components of sustainable development and economic diversification. The Chamber continues to serve as a trusted bridge for US firms, policy institutions, and investors seeking to better understand Guyana’s dynamic environment and to navigate opportunities within its rapidly evolving economy. Through these efforts, AmCham Guyana reinforces its role as a valued partner in advancing shared prosperity and deeper bilateral engagement.
More than a sporting event, the AmCham Guyana Golf Tournament serves as a platform for dialogue, partnership-building, and investment facilitation. It provides a unique setting where business leaders, executives, and investors can engage in constructive conversations that often translate into tangible commercial opportunities.
SBM Offshore and Trident BMC / Machine Tech are also amongst the event’s title sponsors.
They are complemented by Hole Sponsors Baker Hughes, Halliburton, MACORP, Marriott Hotel, and United Airlines; Brand Visibility Sponsor BYD – Build Your Dreams; and Foursome Sponsors Keen360, Archer Guyana & Caribbean, ExxonMobil Guyana, NAMILCO, Vista Trading and Logistics (Guyana) Inc, Case International, Airdash, One Communications, and SLB.
