“This year’s event will be much bigger. We are looking forward to a great sporting day filled with love and prosperity. Various sponsors, local businesses, and local mines will honour these two events, and several services like spa services will be available at the event. We are expecting high-profile guests at the golf course and at the gala dinner,” said organiser Nelson Ratau.

The aim of the golf day and gala dinner is to raise funds for the development of computer labs within disadvantaged communities.


“We are running a pilot project with Shorwane Secondary School from Ga Maepa to bridge illiteracy levels within remote areas of South Africa. We are engaging all forms of sponsors within and outside Mzansi to assist in ensuring the objective is achieved and that it makes a meaningful impact in society”, added Ratau.

The 2025 King Thulare III Charity Golf Day was a success.


The computer lab initiative is endorsed by the office of Her Majesty the Queen, the Limpopo Department of Education, the private sector and other traditional leaders in Sekhukhune.
