Dubai: CEOs and decision makers from all over the UAE will leave the boardrooms and head, golf clubs in hand, to the greens of the Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club Thursday to do battle for the annual Dulsco Classic.
Prizes will be handed out to the top three individual performers of the competition. The contest will adopt an individual stableford format with a three-fourth handicap (under Division A & B). Participants are also allowed to form teams of four players to compete for the top three team prizes.
The two best scores on each hole of each team will be considered for team total. Special prizes will also be handed out for ‘nearest to the pin' and ‘longest drive'. Balakumar, director, Dulsco HR Solutions, said: "Golf has been a popular sport among corporate executives and businessmen around the world as the sport is an enjoyable and challenging physical-fitness activity that also allows them to discuss business with their peers at a more leisurely and relaxing pace. In a way, the golf course has been considered an outdoor boardroom because of tales of business deals that have been sealed after a round of golf."
This year's Dulsco Classic will also be part of Dulsco's year-long celebration of its 75 years of service in the region. Memento presentation and tree-planting ceremony will mark the beginning of a series of activities to celebrate the occasion.
