For over 55 years, FirstBank’s ownership of the Lagos Amateur Open Golf Championship has enhanced the FirstBank brand, giving the Bank TOMA and differentiation over the years as the major driver of the oldest Bank-owned golf amateur championship in Nigeria.
The game of golf is an aspirational sport in Nigeria and the world at large. It cuts across age, gender, differing ability barriers and allows the enjoyment of a fun and healthy competitive recreation. Fundamentally, golf fosters relationship building – there is no place better to build, deepen, and strengthen relationships than the golf course.
The last edition of the tournament played at the Ikoyi Golf Club 1938 hosted over 252 golfers from all parts of Nigeria participating in the coaching clinics and the main tournament. This year’s tournament is also expected to attract the best golfers from the amateur scene.
