Dear golfers, dear partners, dear sports friends,
It is with immense pride and deep gratitude that we extend the warmest welcome to the Senegal Golf Festival 2025, which will take place from October 24-26 at Golf Club de la Pointe des Almadies, in Dakar.
More than just a sporting competition, this festival aims to be an exceptional celebration of golf, culture and community. Over three days, we will have the honor of highlighting universal and essential values:
- Eco-responsibility, through the promotion of sustainable and environmentally respectful practices.
- Female leadership, by paying tribute to women who inspire and transform sport.
