Total Energies finished second with 102 points through Adele Tura, Jackson Ongubo, Martin Mutuma and Fred Makala, while Safaricom’s team of Eric Mugo, Chris Karanja, Martin Mabuya and Richard Gitahi placed third on 101 points.
In the individual categories, Kate Murima claimed the Lady Winner title with 39 points, while Edwin Omollo delivered a standout performance to emerge Men’s Winner after carding 46 points.
The tournament brought together corporate leaders, clients and partners for a full day of competitive golf and networking, marking the return of the NCBA Corporate Golf Day after a seven-year break, the last edition having been held in 2018.
The event forms part of NCBA Group’s broader strategy of using golf as a platform for stakeholder engagement.
Over the past five years, NCBA has deepened its involvement in the sport through initiatives such as the NCBA Golf Series and the Kenya Amateur Golf Championship, supporting both elite competition and grassroots development across the country.
Speaking at the event, NCBA Group Managing Director and CEO John Gachora said the Corporate Golf Day plays a key role in strengthening relationships beyond traditional banking engagements.
“Today’s turnout and the level of competition reflect the strength of the relationships we continue to build. The NCBA Corporate Golf Day is important because it brings our clients and partners together in a setting that encourages open conversation, shared experiences and stronger connections,” he said.
Gachora added that the bank’s growth is anchored on long-term partnerships, noting that such engagements allow NCBA to better understand customer ambitions and align its support across local and regional markets.
The event ended with an evening gala dinner and awards ceremony, celebrating outstanding performances while reaffirming NCBA’s commitment to building enduring partnerships through sport.
