The experience of Golf championship is shared by Tanmay Rakheja of Form 5:

It was a very good experience in the golf championship. There were more than 60 participants from outside the country. We had to play 54 holes over three days. The greens were very fast and the ball didn’t stop. It was a very tough competition in each category. One of the Indian players got a hole – in - one and a boy from Malaysia won the albatross. Whereas I have secured 3rd position in boys under 13 i.e. D group and lost the second position with one stroke to an Indian player from DLF, Gurgaon. All our team mates have performed well. We really learned and enjoyed the championship and I am looking forward to play again in the near future.
