ALL IRELAND MATCHPLAY FINALS PREVIEW 2026 🇮🇪


As excitement builds ahead of this weekend’s All Ireland Matchplay Finals across Rocklodge, Bishopstown & Ranges in Cork, we caught up with newly elected National Coordinator Darren O’Connell for an in-depth Q&A on the championships, the future of the game, and the exciting changes being introduced this season.

Darren speaks openly about:


⛳ The new matchplay format

⛳ Raising standards across championships

⛳ The importance of player feedback

⛳ Cork’s fantastic host venues

⛳ The future of Pitch & Putt Ireland


“A lot of work has gone on behind the scenes to make this National Championship the biggest one yet.”

We’d like to thank Darren for taking the time to speak with us and wish him well this weekend.
