The upcoming Al Noor & 100 World Legends Golf Day is a charitable event organised by Esus in collaboration with the 100 World Legends, a distinguished group of high-profile former international rugby players dedicated to fostering positive change in communities.
This year’s charitable event will support the Al Noor Rehabilitation & Welfare Association for People of Determination (“Al Noor”) and aims to raise funds through a golf tournament to be held at the Arabian Ranches Golf Course in Dubai.
The tournament will feature twenty-six teams of four, each consisting of one member from the 100 World Legends and three paying guests. The tournament will follow a shotgun start format, with all teams beginning play simultaneously from different holes.
Following the golf round, participants will be treated to a catered meal, joined by additional members of the 100 World Legends who will attend the meal.
Founded in 1981 with 8 children, the Al Noor Training Centre for People of Determination now supports more than 210 students from over 30 nations. It offers personalised programs for children and young adults with diverse physical and cognitive challenges.
The comprehensive curriculum includes training, therapies, vocational training, co-curricular activities and satellite programs.
Comprised of high-profile ex-international rugby stars from over 20 countries, the 100 World Legends is an organisation whose aim is to create a lasting change to People of Determination through upholding the core values of Ruby Union.
Respect for others, hard work and integrity are at the forefront as the Legends positively impact global communities through various charities, youth projects and sustainable rugby for-life programmes.

Shotgun Start, all teams of 4 will tee off simultaneously from different holes, ensuring everyone finishes together for post-golf activities.
Additionally, with the Texas Scramble format, each player in each team will hit a shot and the team selects the best one, hence continuing from that spot for each stroke until all holes are completed.
The key stages of the event are expected to commence as follows:
12:30 - Tee Off
17:30 - Dinner
Following the golf and the dinner, expect a sale of curated goods in an auction format, including signed player memorabilia, tickets to major sporting events and more.
The Arabian Ranches Golf Club opened its doors in February, 2004, since which it has become a popular 'lifestyle' destination.
The links is an 18 hole, par 72 signature course designed by Ian Baker-Finch in association with Nicklaus Design. Built as a true desert-style grass course, players typically love the natural flow of the holes through the sand dunes and wonderful desert landscape.
Playing up to 7,658yrds, it is a true test of championship golf. The provision of tee complexes of varying distance also ensures enjoyment and reward for golfers of all abilities.
With a menu and theme that blends the best of the Southern Hemisphere, the name Nezesaussi, short for New Zealand, South Africa and Australia, seems perfectly fitting.
Multiple TV screens including one giant screen showing sporting events from around the world, two pool tables and a jukebox to play your favourite tunes, it is the perfect place to socialise with friends or colleagues.
On the day of the event. guests will be able to indulge in a BBQ buffet with beverages to be provided by event partners.
