The third edition of the Quadrangle Cup Golf Tournament will tee off in China Bay in Trincomalee on Saturday. 
This event is organised and conducted by the Sri Lanka Air Force Golf Links and Course in the setting of China Bay, near the Harbour City of Trincomalee. 
This tournament will be played among the Royal Colombo Golf Club (RCGC), Nuwara Eliya Golf Club (NEGC), Victoria Golf Resort (VGR) and Air Force Eagles Golf Links and Courses, square off to win the Championship Trophy.


As a team-based competition, the Eagles Quadrangle Cup aims to foster Inter-Club friendship and camaraderie while also encouraging friendly competition. 
Each of the four clubs will field a team of 15 members to vie for the Eagles’ Quadrangle Cup Trophy. Additionally, individual golfers will compete for the Nearest to the PIN (both Ladies’ and Men’s), Longest Drive (both Ladies’ and Men’s), Best Player with the highest Nett Stableford points and Best Player with the highest Gross Stableford points.
The award ceremony will take place soon after the day of golf.
The main sponsor is DIMO, with the Bank of Ceylon serving as the official banking partner. The event will be co-sponsored by the China National Aero-Technology Import and Export Corporation (CATIC) in Sri Lanka.
