This facility not only enhances the playing experience but also serves as a symbol of what we can achieve when we work together,” remarked Ms. Mulinge during the handover.

It is a gift of beauty that I’m sure members of the club today and those to come will appreciate eternally. The MTN Pod immortalizes the enduring partnership between MTN and the golf community, particularly those that fellowship at Entebbe.”

The Grand Tee of Tees showcased exceptional talent and sportsmanship, culminating in victories that reflected the dedication and skill of participants.

The Grand Tee of Tees highlighted MTN Uganda’s commitment to fostering community growth through strategic partnerships. In addition to constructing the MTN Pod, MTN’s sponsorship of the MTN Monthly Tee and the renovation of the clubhouse, underscores the value the company places on its customers, by investing in initiatives that they are passionate about. “MTN’s support is a tribute to the game of golf and to the people that have directly or indirectly supported the MTN brand over so many years”, concluded Ms. Mulinge.
