FIPPA - EVENTS
Each year there are a growing number of major international events on the Pitch and Putt global calendar.
It started with a few international contests between the Irish and the Australians (in the '90s) and British (back in the early 80's), and now we have a World Cup, International Seniors tournament, European Championship as well as many International Opens.
We are continuing to try to locate and reproduce the results of past competitions for this website as well as keeping you completely up to date on current and future competitions.
It is FIPPA's intention to finalise details of major competitions at least 12 months before they are held so that players from all around the world may have a chance to organise travel arrangements and take part.
