FIPPA - a World of Pitch and Putt
FIPPA - the International Pitch and Putt Federation (formerly the Federation of International Pitch and Putt Associations),
is the governing body of the sport of Pitch and Putt, created in March 2006 when representatives of 17 Pitch and Putt areas around the world signed their agreement to a Constitution empowering the creation of a global body for the sport.

A Board of seven members was elected to work along with a Secretariat and the future of Pitch and Putt was given a sturdy bedrock upon which to build. FIPPA Board 2010-2014
Frank Smith - President (Ireland), John Hoover - Vice President (USA), Victor Moscatel - Vice President (Catalonia), Myles McMorrow (Ireland), Michael Murphy (Ireland), Jo G Brand (Norway), Joep Van Mourik (Holland).
Projects currently underway include a global handicap system so that one day all players scores may be combined into a global results pool.

Each year there are many international Opens which any player can aspire to take part in, and a World Cup has been played every two years and will be played every four years from 2008.
There is plenty of excitement at all levels for players in the sport of Pitch and Putt.
