The tournament is set for Triangle and Hippo Valley  courses next week.
In a circular the Zambezi Tour marketing manager Tendayi Gwatiringa said the format will be 72 holes Championship over 4 days.
“The tournament will start from Thursday 23rd August to Sunday 26th August 2012
“The field will be cut to 32 players and ties after the first two rounds.
“Round one and two will be played at both Hippo Valley and Triangle courses.
“The final two rounds after the cut will be played at Triangle Golf Club Only
“Entries close today at 1600hrs and they are being lodged with the Tournament Secretary, Amanda Khupe,” Gwatiringa said.
