KCB Bank Sponsors Magical Kenya Ladies Open

The Kenya Magical Ladies Open tees off on Thursday in Kilifi, having received a KShs. 5 million sponsorship boost from KCB Bank Kenya.

The event will run up to February 13 at the Vipingo Ridge, Baobab Course – the only (UK) PGA accredited golf course in Africa and is the only women professional golf tournament in East Africa that is part of the Ladies European Tour.

“The support is part of the Bank’s strategy of championing inclusivity in the sports field while contributing to the development of golf in Kenya and beyond,” said KCB Group Director Marketing, Corporate Affairs, and Citizenship Rosalind Gichuru.

“At the heart of our sponsorship is a goal to expand beyond traditional sponsorship elements to enhance career opportunities for female golfers. We are confident that we will enable our golfers to acquire the experience and skills to compete both locally and internationally,” she added.
