The Demerara Mutual and Demerara Fire and General Insurance Companies have teamed up with the Lusignan Golf Club to host their annual golf tournament today, (Saturday, February 25) from 12:30 hrs.
The format will be 18 holes, which will be divided into front nine and back, and prizes will be awarded for the net score for both divisions.
There will be an overall prize due to the combination of front and back nine for first, second and third; in all, six prizes will be up for grabs, as it will be a shot-gun start.
Speaking on behalf of the LGC, PRO Paton George said, “This is DemLife’s second year with the LGC. We are expecting a full turnout, with a points’ chase that will excite all the golfers.
“To recap the points system: the winner of every tournament will receive 10 points (from) their best ten tournaments of the year, and the overall winner and top five at the end of the year will receive entry into the Suriname Invitational Golf Tournament, free entry into the GTT Guyana Open, and free entry into the MACORP Tournament,” George explained.
George noted that these tournaments are packed to capacity with a plethora of players from around the world. He explained that the DemLife tournament is part of the year-end chase as the three major tournaments approach. George further related that each sponsor that comes onboard with the LGC plays a major contribution in support of the kids’ golf activities, which are expected to be held on Easter Saturday free of cost.
All participants are advised to contact the club’s manager on the day of the tournament to collect their score cards, pay the tournament fees, and proceed to their allocated tee boxes to tee off at 12:30pm.
Persons were asked to contact the Lusignan Golf Club on 220-5660 to register. Registration closed on Friday 24th February.
