Antabax, Malaysia’s number 1 Halal antibacterial personal care range[1] has teed off as the proud co-sponsor of the SportsUnite’s Gua Caya Lu Unity Golf 2017, the third edition of this unique golfing event held at the Templer Park Country Club.

Antabax’s association with SportsUnite’s Gua Caya Lu began last year when the company was one of the sponsors of the golf tournament. Since then, its involvement has grown to a co-sponsorship of the unifying annual golfing event, in line with its support of active and healthy lifestyles.

SportsUnite is a non-government organisation registered under the Sports Commissioner of Malaysia with the aim of organising sporting activities to promote unity, fellowship and racial togetherness among Malaysians.

As co-sponsor Antabax, the brand contributed more than RM6,000 in flight fees, product hampers for winners and products for all attendees.

The third edition of the event drew 140 golfers of different races, to play with the spirit of fellowship and unity, foremost. The doubles stableforth points format comprising a pair of amateur golfers from different races is the first of its kind in Malaysian golf.

The diversity of the golfers supported the tournament theme Gua Caya Lu which translates to “I trust you...we are one.”

Prizes were presented in pairs. There were no individual prizes and to promote the spirit of fellowship it was a requirement that both golfers in the pair be present to receive the lucky draw prize, or it would snowballed to the next lucky draw.

We are excited to take our sponsorship to the next level. The event offers a platform for golfers to understand and develop camaraderie as they pair up with partners of a different race. They get to pit their skills against their peers in a tournament that aims to inspire and unite players. To have Antabax associated with this unique and unifying tournament is a source of pride for us.”

The spirit of fellowship and unity prevailed throughout the event with strong camaraderie and new friendships formed in keeping with the aims of the organisers.

Dato’ Dina Rizal, Chairman of SportsUnite Sports Club said, “Everyone was a winner as they enjoyed a great game of golf in the spirit of fellowship and unity. We are glad for Antabax’ sponsorship that provided a gift of a health for those with active lifestyle.”
