Nedbank for Good series final set for Omeya

A total of 19 players are set to contest for the Nedbank for Good Series title at the final round of this year’s edition at Omeya Golf Club this Friday. These 19 are the top players drawn from the 10 events held this year. The first event of 2023 kicked off at Omeya Golf Club in February, where Mark Anslow and Leani Engelbrecht scooped top honours, before the Gobabis event in May, where Francois Binneman and Ester van Taak were victorious. In June, the series went to Oranjemund, which saw Arno Pienaar and Yolanda Pienaar qualify for the final. At Tsumeb, Videlis Hanganda and Ruanda de Beer secured their place in the final, before the Mariental tournament in July where Kiewiet Dreyer and Celonika Robinson won the male and female categories respectively. August was the busiest month, with Oshakati, Walvis Bay and Swakopmund’s golf courses hosting some of the country’s top amateurs. Antonius Amugongo and Eveline Shilongo won at Oshakati, followed by Weitz van Niekerk and Estelle Bothma in Walvis Bay, with Kevin Wentzel and Tiekie de Wet advancing in Swakopmund.Desmond D’Emiljo and Wilna Bredenhann closed off the coastal stint by winning the Henties Bay round in September. Heinrich Schmidt and Clarisa Chipfupa’s recent wins in Windhoek signaled the end of the series preliminaries. Event organiser Dan Zwiebel says everything is set for Namibia’s top amateur golf series, and that having the final at Omeya makes preparations much easier.“The addition of the women’s section was definitely one of the main milestones. Having 45 ladies in total participate in the 2023 series was a major accomplishment, and we look forward to building on it.“Every single year, this series keeps on being amazing. I would like to thank every single player who teed up over the year, every club who generously allowed us to utilise their establishment, all the different committees, and every single person who supported the auctions. Our aim has always been to grow this series from strength to strength,” Zwiebel said.Nedbank Namibia Communications and Public Relations Manager, Selma Kaulinge, said: “As we are about to bid adieu to this year’s Nedbank for Good Series, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the preliminary round winners who have shown exceptional skill and sportsmanship throughout the series. “We are now gearing for the final this coming Friday, and we are excited to see who walks away with the title of champion.”Proceeds are directed towards the Rössing Foundation and its primary beneficiaries, the learners and teachers in rural schools, who have benefited immensely from the Nedbank for Good Series.
