Ruiru Sports Club, known for its wide fairways and lush green, will host the 11th leg of the KCB East Africa Golf Tour as golfers compete for the top prizes and a chance to qualify for the tour’s grand finale.
The eagerly awaited tournament will see 280 top amateur golfers converge at the par 72 course. The winning team will automatically qualify for the grand finale slated for December 5, joining other teams that have sealed their spots.
Commenting on the tournament, Lady Captain Rhoda Mukami said: “We are expecting a huge field on Saturday. Ruiru has become a hub for corporate golf events in recent years. This has largely been driven by our commitment to golfing excellence, ensuring that our course is in the best condition to host events of this magnitude. Ruiru Sports Club and KCB share a strong relationship. Both institutions have the best interests at heart for the growth of the game.”
Last weekend, in Nairobi, two teams from Karen Country Club qualified for the grand finale. They include Rose Njendu, Mutheu Ngunze, Elizabeth Kimkung, Rosemary Njogu, Atsango Lwande, Monica Kipchumba, Rebecca Juma and Violet Luchendo.

“We are steadfast in our resolve to advance the game of golf in the country. Through the 2025 KCB East Africa Golf Tour, we have reached over 1,500 participants and over 1,000 juniors through the golf clinics that ran concurrently with the series. This is part of our larger plan to strengthen regional unity, democratize the sport and bolster socio-economic development,” noted KCB Group Director Marketing and Communications Rosalind Gichuru.
Golfer Paul Kamau, who recently triumphed at the 18-hole course during a corporate golf tournament will be eager to replicate his heroics at the KCB tourney. Long-hitting Susan Kanyora will also participate in the competition among other talented golfers.
Action will tee off at 6:30 am in the morning. The afternoon tee is scheduled to start at 12:30 pm.
