Bradby Golf Powered by NDB Privilege Banking, Celebrates a Decade of Prestige with a Historic Tie

September, 12, 2025

The milestone 10th Bradby Golf Encounter, powered by NDB Privilege Banking, concluded on a remarkable note as the Old Trinitians and Old Royalists finished in a dramatic tie at the Victoria Golf Resort. The result marked a historic first in the tournament’s legacy, befitting its decade-long tradition of passion, precision, and camaraderie.

Played in the Ryder Cup–styled match play format, the encounter saw both sides deliver spirited performances that reflected the enduring sporting rivalry and brotherhood shared between Trinity and Royal. Contesting for the coveted G.C. Wickremasinghe Memorial Trophy, named in honour of the late G.C. Wickremasinghe of the 1956 Royal Rugby Team, the two sides demonstrated exceptional skill, resilience, and sportsmanship, culminating in a result that will be remembered for years to come.

Alongside the main event, the Victoria Cup, played in a Stableford scoring format, brought together a larger gathering of old boys from both schools. This inclusive segment fostered broader participation, deepening the fellowship that has become a hallmark of Bradby Golf over the past decade.

As the main strategic partner, NDB Privilege Banking was honoured to power this milestone edition, reinforcing its commitment to celebrating traditions that blend heritage, prestige, and excellence. For NDB, Bradby Golf resonates with the same values upheld in its Privilege Banking offering exclusivity, distinction, and an unwavering commitment to nurturing meaningful connections.

The encounter concluded with a ceremonious awards presentation and a spirited fellowship evening, where players, alumni, and invitees from both schools came together to mark the tournament’s 10-year journey.

NDB Bank congratulates both the Old Trinitians and Old Royalists for their outstanding performances and is proud to have partnered in this milestone edition of Bradby Golf. Through initiatives such as these, NDB continues to honour the traditions that unite communities while championing the spirit of sportsmanship and legacy that define Sri Lanka’s heritage.
