After sponsoring a senior golf tourney at Blantyre Sports Club, Sparc Systems Limited funded another tournament which involved youngsters at the same venue where 48 junior golfers took part.
The event was hailed by Golf Union of Malawi Development coach Dingani Chirwa who said the number is the biggest to have been recorded in junior tournament in recent times.
“This is encouraging and we applaud parents for taking an interest in junior golf. The golfers are learning things very quickly and you will be surprised with how some of these players will perform in the years to come,” said Chirwa.
The company’s Technical Sales Manager Alena Chiwaya said they want to help build the future of golf in the country.
“Recently, we supported junior tennis because we were impressed with their strategic plan. Now we are also investing in the junior golf as some of us started golf two or three years ago and we expect miracles to win yet we didn’t master the sport at a tender age. Our mission is like in two or three years, we should produce good golfers. As a Malawian firm, we are trying to show that Malawians can support each other to improve the standards of different sport codes in the country,” she explained.
