The Bandenia Golf Society League (GSL) returned for round three at Sharjah Golf and Shooting Club on Saturday the 25th of March. A total of ten societies from all over the UAE have joined for this season of GSL all trying to stake their claim to be Bandenia Golf Society League Champions.

The ten societies have been split into two leagues with top four in each league and moving into the knock out stages.

BANDENIA LEAGUE

First up in the Bandenia league was Kegs who would have to overcome the challenge of GTI. Despite both the matches being close Kegs claimed the W in both matches and were delighted to add six points to their league total. 

The other game in the Bandenia league was FIGME against SGSC Social, and what a match up it was. Both societies played some excellent golf on the day and the teams could not be separated. Both winning a match FIGME and SGSC Social both added three points to their league totals. Nepalese Golf Society are the fifth society in this league they had a rest week and will be ready to battle in the next round of fixtures.

MYGOLF DUBAI LEAGUE

The first match in the MyGolf Dubai League saw Sports to Business battle it out against MyGolf Dubai. Another brilliant match on the day as once again both societies won a match each, MyGolf Dubai and Sports to Business produced some great golf all day and a tie was the correct result as neither deserved to lose.

Final match of the day saw Golf Dragons play Sharjah Golf Society, unfortunately for Sharjah Golf Dragons arguably produced the best golf on the day winning both their matches and they are sitting nicely in the MyGolf Dubai league. Team International make up the remainder of this league and will compete again in the next fixture.

At the midway point both leagues are set up brilliantly. As well as the matches, competitors had a chance to win day prizes for best betterball stableford score. Congratulations to Joe Bautista & Mohd Shameer (Golf Dragons GS) on their win in the Day’s prizes. Second place was won by Stephen Hong & Henry Zheng (MyGolf Dubai).

The next round of the GSL will be hosted at Sharjah Golf and Shooting Club on the 1st of April where there will also be the day’s prizes up for grabs for any additional players who are more than welcome.
