Exciting Times Ahead as Golf Sixes League Expands in UAE

Get ready, golf fans! The Emirates Golf Federation is set to launch the highly anticipated national rollout of the Golf Sixes League in 2026, following two thrilling seasons in Abu Dhabi that had everyone buzzing with excitement. This initiative is all about making the game more fun and accessible, especially for our budding junior golfers.

Double the Fun with Leagues in Two Major Cities

As the league expands, there will be two major competitions taking place in the vibrant cities of Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Players will represent their respective teams from the Emirates Golf Federation and various local golf clubs, all vying for a shot at the coveted title in The Abu Dhabi Challenge, set to take place in April.

How Does the League Work?

Matches will be played over six holes, utilizing a two-ball Texas scramble stroke play format. This means that the best two scores out of three pairs will count towards the team’s overall score. It’s a smart way to keep things exciting and to give everyone a chance to shine!

The league will take place at six stunning host venues that are sure to provide fantastic backdrops for the competitions. Players will tee off at the luxurious Trump International Dubai, the iconic Emirates Golf Club, and the challenging Montgomerie, as well as the prestigious Abu Dhabi City Golf Club, the scenic Yas Links Golf Club, and the welcoming Al Ain Equestrian, Shooting, and Golf Club.

Results are In! Who’s Leading the Pack?

Claude Harmon III Academy at The Els Club took the top spot, followed by the renowned Emirates Golf Club and Emaar. Meanwhile, in the Abu Dhabi Pool, the Abu Dhabi City Golf Club secured first place, closely followed by Yas Links Golf Club and the Emirates Golf Federation’s Future Falcons.
