The Egyptian Golf Federation is to host the Pan Arab Junior and Ladies Golf Championship from May 7-10, with the tournaments being jointly hosted at Madinaty Golf Club and Katameya Dunes Golf Club in Cairo, under the sanctioning of the Arab Golf Federation.

The prestigious championship will feature five divisions across boys and girls age categories, in addition to a ladies division. Participation is open to all Arab golfers through their respective national federations provided they meet the eligibility criteria outlined in the tournament regulations.

Eligible countries include Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Tunisia, and the United Arab Emirates.

The Arab Golf Federation plays a vital role in the global golf ecosystem, working to unify governance of the sport across the Arab world while promoting its development by creating enhanced opportunities for Arab players, both regionally and internationally.

Omar Hisham Talaat Moustafa, newly appointed President of the Egyptian Golf Federation, said:
“It is an honour for Egypt and the EGF to host the first amateur event on the Arab Golf Federation’s 2025 calendar. Co-hosting the championship at Madinaty and Katameya Dunes marks a new chapter for golf in Egypt under the Federation’s new leadership. We have ambitious plans to elevate the sport and bring top-level amateur and professional tournaments to Egypt, the Arab world, MENA region, and Africa.”

He added: “For the first time, this year’s championship will actively encourage public attendance, especially from Madinaty City. We are organising a Festival of Golf at Madinaty on May 8-9, with golf activations, entertainment, live music and food stations. Our aim is to attract families, youngsters, and individuals of all backgrounds to enjoy the game in a fun and welcoming environment — and hopefully begin their journey in golf through our ‘Pyramid of Learning’ approach.”

“We look forward to showcasing our outstanding golf facilities, welcoming everyone with the warmth of Egyptian hospitality, and delivering an unforgettable experience for all players, delegations, guests, and spectators.”
