Why Njoro Country Golf Club is Special golf course
Njoro Country Golf Club was founded in the early 1901 as a stoppover and meeting point for traveling White Settlers. This need came up as a result of the building of the Kenya-Uganda Railway tracks.
The British moving across the country via railway would stop here to rest and refresh before continuing with their journey.
Later on, it progressed into a recreational centre with a vast golf course, polo field, a racecourse and a small training airstrip. Other later additions included a ballroom, tennis court and cricket field.
The KJ golf Tournament is a once-in-lifetime chance to showcase your skills and there's no better place to do that other than in Njoro.
