The innovative public private partnership between the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality and the Uitenhage Golf Club on Winterhoek Drive, Uitenhage, that currently pays dividends for more than 20 young golf players of colour from KwaNobuhle and Rosedale, will receive a major boost today when a driving range will be opened at the Uitenhage Golf Club at 14:00 today.
Nelson Mandela Bay Executive Mayor Zanoxolo Wayile will officiate at the opening of the 300m driving range at the club after the city contributed approximately R400 000 towards the development of the driving range, two putting greens, a tee and lamp poles.
Allister de Kock, one of Nelson Mandela Bay’s most promising up and coming golfers and currently captain of the EP Development side, showed his steel when he was identified through this initiative.
