The Nobuhle Dlamini Foundation has been appointed as the preferred operator of the MTN Golf Driving Range in Eswatini. This development marks a new chapter for the facility, with the foundation set to bring its vision for developing the driving range to life. According to Nobuhle Dlamini, the appointment is an exciting milestone for the foundation and an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the community.
The appointment follows a tender process and presentations for the operation of the MTN Clubhouse and Golf Driving Range facilities. MTN Eswatini was impressed by the foundation's community-focused approach and plans to create an accessible and engaging golfing environment. The proposal aligned with MTN Eswatini's objectives of promoting recreation, wellness, and community engagement.
However, MTN Eswatini has decided to separate the management of the facilities into two components: Clubhouse Restaurant Operations and Golf Driving Range Operations. The Nobuhle Dlamini Foundation's appointment is exclusively for the operation and management of the Golf Driving Range, while the clubhouse restaurant will be operated under a separate arrangement.
MTN's Facilities Management team is expected to engage with the foundation over the coming weeks to finalize the operational framework. This will include responsibilities, access arrangements, asset utilization, maintenance obligations, and coordination between the two facilities. Access to the driving range is expected to be granted at the beginning of December 2026.
Nobuhle Dlamini expressed her gratitude to MTN Eswatini for recognizing the foundation's vision and entrusting it with the opportunity. She stated that the foundation looks forward to building a facility that inspires participation, nurtures talent, and creates lasting value. Dlamini emphasized that this is more than an achievement; it is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference.
The Nobuhle Dlamini Foundation's plans for the golf driving range include promoting wellness and creating an accessible environment for the community. The foundation aims to contribute to the growth of golf in Eswatini and provide a platform for people to engage in recreational activities.
The partnership between MTN Eswatini and the Nobuhle Dlamini Foundation is expected to have a positive impact on the community. With the foundation's expertise and MTN's support, the golf driving range is set to become a hub for golfing enthusiasts and a symbol of community engagement.
