The highly anticipated Nedbank for Good Series coastal leg is set to get underway on 29 August, ushering in three weeks of world-class amateur golf competition along Namibia’s coastline before culminating on 12 September.
Widely regarded as one of Namibia’s premier amateur golf tournaments, the Nedbank for Good Series has made remarkable strides since its inception in 2020.
What began as a purpose-driven golf initiative has evolved into a nationally recognised sporting platform that combines competitive golf with meaningful community impact.
The tournament continues to attract growing participation and has become a fixture on the country’s golfing calendar, with players eagerly seeking opportunities to secure their place in the various regional events.
Since its launch, the series has raised close to N$1.5 million for charitable causes while reaching more than 70% of Namibia’s golfing fraternity.
The 2026 coastal leg will comprise three events:
Saturday, 29 August – Rossmund Golf Course, Swakopmund
Saturday, 5 September – Walvis Bay Golf Club, Walvis Bay
Saturday, 12 September – Henties Bay Golf and Lifestyle Estate, Henties Bay.
The Nedbank for Good Series provides Namibian golfers with a professionally organised platform where competition is coupled with purpose. Through the series, participants not only enjoy access to some of the country’s finest golf courses but also contribute to programmes that create meaningful change in communities across Namibia.
Nedbank Namibia spokesperson Selma Kaulinge says the continued growth of the series demonstrates the enduring appeal of sport as a force for social good.
“The Nedbank for Good Series has become one of the most anticipated fixtures on Namibia’s sporting calendar. What started as a platform to combine sport and social impact has grown into a movement that brings together golfers and corporate partners around a shared purpose. The enthusiasm we continue to see from players across the country is a testament to the value and credibility the series has built over the years,” Kaulinge says.
She adds that Nedbank’s investment in the series forms part of the bank’s broader commitment to sport development in Namibia.
“As money experts who do good, we recognise the power of sport to unite communities, inspire healthy lifestyles, and create opportunities for social and economic development. The remarkable growth of the series demonstrates how purpose-driven sport can resonate with people. Every year we see increased participation, stronger partnerships, and greater awareness around the causes we support. That momentum is a reflection of the trust that players, clubs, and stakeholders have placed in the tournament over the years.”
Series organiser Dan Zwiebel says the tournament’s continued success is rooted in its ability to deliver exceptional golfing experiences while creating a lasting impact beyond the fairways.
“What makes the Nedbank for Good Series special is that it has grown organically through the support of the golfing community. Every year the event becomes more competitive, inclusive, and impactful. The coastal leg is particularly popular because it combines outstanding golfing venues with a unique atmosphere that attracts players from across the country,” Zwiebel says.
He notes that the tournament has undergone significant growth over the years.
In addition to promoting the growth of golf in Namibia, the Nedbank for Good Series continues to support Agra ProVision, the current beneficiary of the tournament. Funds raised through the series contribute towards agricultural training and development initiatives that empower farmers and communities across Namibia through improved agricultural skills and knowledge.
Following the coastal leg, the series will continue as follows:
Omeya Golf Club – 26 September
Grand Finale at Windhoek Golf Club – 13 November
