MBABANE – Mbabane Golf Club were handed a major boost by giant mobile phone company MTN, with E120 000 sponsorship for Monthly Masters tournament.


The company’s Chief Marketing Officer Khulile Dlamini, announced the improved package shortly after yesterday’s March Masters competition, which attracted a field of over 30 golfers.


Last year the company had forked out about E80 000 for the tournament and the current deal has made MTN the biggest sponsors of the most active golf club in the country.


“I would like to first apologise on behalf of the CEO, who was suppose to be the one officiating in the launch of the new sponsorship. But let me state that we had considered not to renew the sponsorship but as the competitions continued over the year, it was becoming clear that this was a place to be for us,” he said.


He announced that the company has lined up a series of events to spice up its 13 year partnership with Mbabane Golf Club. Among them will be the champ of champ tournament, that will feature the champions of the 12 Monthly Masters.


“We are also going to have a night golf where we will have to fly a PRO for the event. Your task will be to try and beat him.”


Acting Director of Sports Henry Zeemans, graced the historic launch yesterday and Mbabane Golf Club captain Genius Sihlongonyane, paid glowing tribute to MTN for their continued support.
“Credit should also go to you golfers who have been loyal to the club in rain or sunshine.”
