FOR the second consecutive year, CIBC FirstCaribbean is a platinum sponsor, donating $10,000 to the Bahamas International Film Festival's Corporate Golf Invitational.

The tournament will be held at the Albany's 18-hole championship golf course designed by Ernie Els.

With CIBC FirstCaribbean's sponsorship, golfers enjoy a great game on a world-class golf course.

CIBC FirstCaribbean will also provide the players with gift bags filled with golfing gear.

The event takes place on June 8, 2012.

Retail director Richard Phillips said, "CIBC FirstCaribbean is delighted to continue to assist BIFF's with hosting the 2nd Annual Corporate Golf Invitational.

"We are pleased to assist and support BIFF's work, especially when the youth are involved.

"Supporting noteworthy activities within the communities in which we operate is key to our success, and this is a great opportunity to show our support."

This year's tournament, the organisers said, promises to be even more exciting than last year's and over 50 golfers are expected to participate and also have a chance to win a Mercedes Benz with a hole-in-one.

BIFF Founder, Leslie Vanderpool said, "We welcome CIBC FirstCaribbean's participation at this significant level, for the second consecutive year.

"With the Bank's support, BIFF's is better able to support and promote the arts, independent film and culture within the Bahamas and the world."
