With a mandate to promote and develop the sport of golf, AGC oversees the organization of regional and continental tournaments, supports grassroots golf initiatives, and collaborates with national golf federations to ensure the sport’s growth and sustainability.

The AGC has played a pivotal role in nurturing this growth, creating pathways for young talent, and positioning golf as a sport that transcends socioeconomic boundaries. However, despite these achievements, the potential for golf in Africa remains largely untapped.

Golf in Africa has grown exponentially over the past few decades. According to recent statistics, Africa is home to over 1.5 million golfers, with countries such as South Africa, Kenya, Nigeria, and Egypt leading in participation rates.
