An impressive total of 84 golfers had a date on the greens of the Polokwane Golf Club on Thursday when Mitchell House School hosted their first-ever golf competition.
POLOKWANE – The match was played in a four-ball alliance ghost score format.
According to Achsah Phoshoko, Director of Marketing at Mitchell House, the school plans to host this golf match on an annual basis. She says the event was organised by the school’s Parent’s Association.
