The Rotary Club of Colombo Metropolitan (RCCM) will tee off their eighth Dialog Enterprise Rotary Par three Charity Golf Classic on October 26 at the Royal Colombo Golf Club (RCGC).
There will be two tee off times scheduled at 7.00 am and at 12 noon. Raising funds for RCCM’s community service projects, particularly the Rotary for Little Hearts Project is their main aim.
The Dialog Enterprise Rotary Par three Charity Golf Classic, known for transforming the 18-hole RCGC Course into a Par 54 layout, challenges golfers with a distinct twist where every hole is played as a Par three.
The event offers a mix of fun, competitiveness, and camaraderie, drawing some of the most enthusiastic golfers from Sri Lanka’s business and sports communities.
President, RCCM, Roshan Peiris said: “The Dialog Enterprise Rotary Par three Charity Golf Classic is not just a sporting event but a platform for us to make a lasting impact.”
“Thanks to Dialog Enterprise, Platinum Sponsor Asia Securities, Real Estate Partner Sovereign Maxwell Holdings and the Bank of Ceylon we continue to serve underprivileged communities through projects like Rotary for Little Hearts.”
Navin Peiris, Group Chief Officer of Dialog Enterprise, expressed his enthusiasm for partnering with the RCCM for this special event.
He highlighted the tournament’s significant contributions, including funding congenital heart surgeries for underprivileged children and various initiatives.
Captain, RCGC Amrith de Soysa said: “We are thrilled to host the eighth Dialog Enterprise Rotary Par three Charity Golf Classic.”
“We are also very happy to announce that this year once again RCGC and RCCM will partner in distributing school supplies to children of our caddies and minor staff through our annual CSR initiative.”
