Friday started early at Royal Nairobi Golf Club — the sun, the dew, and the first swings. The AWDC Inaugural Charity Golf Tournament kicked off just after sunrise, bringing together corporate leaders, entrepreneurs, and supporters for a day of purpose-driven sport.

The energy was calm but focused. Golfers registered, grabbed breakfast, and got into formation. By 7 AM, the first tee-off signaled the start of something bigger than just a game — it was about driving empowerment, one swing at a time.

The course buzzed all day with friendly competition, laughter, and plenty of conversation around AWDC’s mission. Decathlon Sports Megastore stood out with an incredible product showcase — from golfing gear to fitness essentials — reminding everyone that sport and empowerment can move in the same direction.

By late afternoon, as the last group wrapped up play, the air was filled with smiles and satisfaction. Winners celebrated their strokes; partners celebrated impact. The day ended on the greens, but the message carried forward — that this tournament was only the beginning of an annual tradition that combines sport, purpose, and community.
