NDB, together with the Royal Colombo Golf Club (RCGC) hosted this year’s annual Inter-School Golf Championship on 22 October at the Royal Colombo Golf Club (RCGC).

Colombo International School came in as the clear winner at this exciting competition. St. Bridget’s Convent emerged the winning team in the women’s segment. Dons Golf, in association with the Royal Colombo Golf Club, initiated the RCGS Inter-School Golf Championship in 2013 for past pupils and NDB has been the principal sponsor since 2014. The aim of this event was to launch a much-needed inter-school tournament which was very much in demand, and has this year established itself as being a much-awaited event within the golfing arena in the country.

The tournament was played on a five ball stable ford basis and featured more than 200 golfers from 17 schools, including two girls’ schools, from all over Sri Lanka. This championship was organised under a big match theme and is the fourth time such an event has been held in the history of golf in Sri Lanka.
