THE Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) is holding the inaugural Anti-Corruption Stakeholder Engagement Golf Tournament at the Zimbabwe Republic Police Golf Club Friday morning (today).
The tournament brings together golfers from public and private organisations that include NSSA, ZESA, Doves, AFC Holdings, the Zimbabwe Republic Police, the Zimbabwe Prisons and Correctional Service, and the Tongogara Rural District Council among others.
ZACC Spokesperson Commissioner Kindness Paradza said funds raised from the tournament will be used to buy kits for school kids who are keen to develop their skills as golfers.
Commissioner Paradza said besides being a charity event, the tournament is a platform for stakeholder engagement between young golfers, captains of industry and ZACC staff.
“The event brings together players from various sectors like the corporate world, government, schools and community in general, for a round focused on networking and championing ethical governance,” he said.
“Bringing the anti-corruption message to the golf course means bringing it directly to where connections are made and decisions are influenced,” he added.
This inaugural event is designed as a springboard for a series of tournaments that will be held across the country in 2026 as ZACC scales up instilling integrity and raising anti-corruption awareness among citizens and school children.
“The tournament is a launchpad for the Commission campaign dubbed Combatting Corruption Through Sports,” said Commissioner Paradza.
