Second NCBA Interschool Golf Tournament held at the Windsor Golf Hotel & Country Club
Junior Golf is set to continue this weekend, as 168 juniors from 27 schools are set to compete in the second NCBA Interschool Golf Tournament to be held at the Windsor Golf Hotel & Country Club on Friday, May 16, 2025. This is the second edition of the event this year, organised by the Junior Golf Foundation Kenya (JGF), in partnership with the NCBA Bank.
The event has seen the entry of new schools, including the Consolata School Nairobi, Nova Pioneer-Tatu Primary, Pioneer Junior School, and the Sun and Shield Primary & Junior School in Nakuru.
Designed to cater to both handicapped and non-handicapped juniors, the tournament continues to expand the reach and accessibility of golf among school-going children. It serves as a key component of JGF’s Get Into Golf Initiative, a national movement aimed at growing junior golf from grassroots to elite levels.
The competition is structured into four main categories:
- 10 Years & Under
- 11-12 Years
- 13-14 Years
- 15-18 Years
Schools field teams of four players in the categories, where the best three scores count for the team.
The participating schools are: The Banda School, Braeburn Garden Estate, Braeburn Gitanga Road, Braeside Lavington School, Consolata School Nairobi, Crawford International School, Faith Ventures Academy, Hillcrest Preparatory School, Hillcrest Secondary School, Home School, International School of Kenya, Kenton College, Kiota School, Lenana School, Limuru Children Centre, Makini School, Montessori Learning Centre – Prep, Nova Pioneer-Tatu Primary, Peponi School, Pioneer Junior School, Premier Academy, Rosslyn Academy, Rusinga School, St. Austen’s Academy, St. Ruth School, Sun and Shield Primary & Junior School, The Nairobi Academy.
The schools include St. Ruth School, which won the 10 years and under category, and the Home School, whose teams dominated the 11-14 and 15-18 years categories in March 2025.
NCBA’s continued sponsorship has been instrumental in supporting JGF’s mission to make golf a sport for all, including initiatives that empower girls, differently abled juniors, and underprivileged youth. Their partnership reflects a long-term investment in the development of not only golfers but also disciplined, focused, and responsible future leaders.
Speaking ahead of the tournament, JGF President Vincent Mukiri remarked:
“The beauty of the NCBA Interschool Tournament lies not only in the competition, but in the collaboration. By getting more schools involved, we are building a sustainable future for junior golf in Kenya. Through our ‘Get Into Golf Initiative,’ we’re making sure every child, regardless of background, gets a chance to learn, play and thrive through golf.”
The tournament is the second of three interschool tournaments. The third is the historic NCBA Lisle Shaw Interschool Tournament set for October 2025, which will be open exclusively to juniors with official handicaps. This upcoming event will serve as a more competitive platform, allowing juniors to test their skills against their peers on a national stage
