"We look forward to add at least five orphanage homes to the Deprived Kids Golf Project and also start an annual golf competition for deprived kids-the first-of-its-kind in Ghana," he stated.

He added that, they also hope to attract more girls and ladies into playing golf in Ghana, while increasing the membership of the society to at least 250.

He urged organizations to come on board to support the society especially with the Deprived Kids Golf Project while expressing gratitude to R K Cliste, Mosak Photography, Industrial Procurement Services and Flo Polo Designs for their support.

The game would be 27 holes in a day with 18 holes in the morning and nine holes after launch.

It promises to be an exciting tournament and organizers have called on golfers to be on time for a successful event.
