On the 28th of December 2021, the annual Kingswood Golf Day took place at The Royal Port Alfred Golf Course.
The annual Kingswood Golf day was held on Tuesday 28 December 2021.
We had a field of 192 golfers on a beautifully manicured and green RPAGC course. Thanks to groundsman Butch Lee and his team.
A fairly strong westerly wind picked up as the day progressed but the day was very successful and we are truly grateful to all who supported the day.
It would be remiss of us not to mention and thank our very loyal and generous sponsors biggest Thanks must go to our very loyal and very generous sponsors for their role in making the day a success:
- Mr Warne Rippon/ Buffalo Kloof Private Game Reserve
- Mr Angus Sholto-Douglas/ Kwandwe Private Game Reserve
