Daren Ganga Foundation Golf Tournament at Trincity

Over the seven years since its inception, this tournament has become one of the most popular and anticipated events on the local golf calendar as golfers, including youth players vie for top honours on the course throughout the day, as well as the opportunity to score bragging rights by trumping local sports celebrities and personalities.

Teams placing in the top seven will be awarded highly attractive prizes including plane tickets, hotel accommodation, other electronic devices and hampers.

After the 18th hole, the competition will continue off the course at the dinner and awards ceremony, where radio personality Kerron “Sunny Bling” Sealy will once more chair the proceedings.

In keeping with tradition, cricket and golf memorabilia will be auctioned off.

To close off the evening, guests will be treated to an evening of fun and entertainment.

All proceeds of the annual DGF Golf tournament go towards the Foundation’s Scholarship programme.

Each year, the DGF selects a cohort of primary school children who demonstrate exceptional talent in an extra-curricular activity (sports, music, dance, performing arts) and grant them a three-year scholarship whose programmes and resources are dedicated to and focused on the development of their talents, academics, character, life skills and overall well-being.

“This is not just about developing a skill or honing a talent.

The DGF seeks to promote the development of good citizens and excellent human beings,” said Ganga, the ex-Trinidad and Tobago and West Indies batsman and captain.

This flagship fundraiser ensures that the scholarship programme can continue into the medium term.
