The fourth edition of the BDA International Golf tournament for the school children of Delhi and NCR region concluded on Thursday.
As many as 80 children from around 20 different schools across the national capital participated in the tournament at the Delhi Golf Club.
Speaking at the closing ceremony, former Union Minister Oscar Fernandes said, "This is a very good initiative started by the group and we hope that in coming years many more such steps are taken to promote the sports amongst the youth in the country. We should believe in training our youths in different sports so that they are able to compete in Olympics and win more medals for us."
The brain behind the tournament, Parmod K Aggarwal, said, "The core motive behind organizing this tournament is to give the young budding golfers the required launch pad to show their skills to the rest of the world and enhance their capabilities further."
He said that every authority linked to sports must work hard to provide all the facilities in bringing golf to the forefront and as one of the most obvious choices in sports for the youths in this country.
The two-day event witnessed budding golfers compete for top honours in team and individual segments in four different age groups, with maximum age limit being 18 years and the minimum being eight years.
Each team comprised four players, one in each category, and the gross score of the best three golfers were taken into consideration for the School Trophy. (ANI)
