So today at Rubin Ranchers we have the inaugural event of the Dubai Chinese Golf Association.
00:07
It is an association that is mainly focused on the Chinese golfing population in Dubai
00:12
because we have identified there's no golf leagues for Chinese in Dubai and we want to
00:16
incorporate that into the UAE.
00:20
We decided to set up this organization and we decided to make this a non-profit to be
00:25
more inclusive and of course foreigners are welcome.
00:28
We came today actually and everybody was laughing, talking, having fun.
00:34
So we have about, if I'm not wrong, 8 groups, 32 adults and about 24 children, so around
00:41
56 in total.
00:43
Very inclusive.
00:45
Even if you don't win, you're here to have fun.
00:50
We got a bit more sponsors this year which meant that we were able to organize a larger
00:55
event and incorporate more participants into it.
01:00
Everybody's just here to have a great time with each other.
01:02
We have some prizes.
01:03
You know at the end of the day they're going to enjoy a pretty big dinner so everybody's
01:07
going to be happy.
01:10
My vision when I started this is generally to promote youth sports here in the UAE and
01:15
Dubai in particular.
01:17
I aim to develop this DCGA over the next few years, have more events, have more exciting
01:24
prizes, hopefully get more sponsors, move into different golf courses, potentially organize
01:29
specific divisions as well, not just according to their age but to their skill set as well.
01:36
I also aim to develop this organization into different sports but that's for the future.
