Junior golf reaches Diani Beach on 18 October
The official Fall 2026 schedule lists Diamonds Leisure Beach & Golf Resort for 18 October 2026. The event is the third stop on the Mombasa Local Tour, which also visits Vipingo Ridge Golf Resort and Nyali Golf & Country Club.
The schedule places the tournament between the Nyali round on 4 October 2026 and another Diamonds Leisure round on 15 November 2026. The full tour runs from 27 September to 22 November 2026, with six listed tournaments on the Kenyan coast. The official Fall 2026 schedule gives the dates and venues.
A regional report published on 15 October 2026 also places the U.S. Kids Golf local tour at Diamond Leisure Golf Resort on Sunday, 18 October 2026. That provides a second current reference for the event's date and Diani venue.
Diamonds Leisure Golf links the tournament to Diani
The host club describes itself as an 18-hole championship course in Diani Beach. Its history page states that the course was designed by Thomas Fjastad and completed in 1998, with a par of 72.
The course covers 118 hectares and is set among coral outcrops, coastal woodlands and gently undulating terrain. Those features give the junior tournament a defined setting rather than a generic event space: competitors will play at a long-established coastal golf course with a recorded place in Diani's sporting history.
The club says it has hosted the Diani Beach Masters, the Ladies Coast Open, the CISM World Military Golf Tournament in 2025, and other golf competitions. The course history from the operator records the design, completion year and landscape.
The operator identifies the venue as Diamonds Leisure Golf Club on Beach Road in Diani, Kenya. Its course information describes the site as a beachfront resort and golf club, while the tournament schedule gives the matching resort name for 18 October. The club's Diani venue details provide the location used by visitors and golfers.
