Those are all senior. I did include Junior in the search on GUI but none or only 1 came up so far.

Anything outside of that doesn't count tbf.

Roganstown are running senior, junior and intermediate scratch cups on Monday 7th may.

The gui website usually only list the senior scratch as permission is needed from the gui to run a senior. My understanding is that only 1 senior scratch cup is allowed on any day in any province.

Makes sense to be fair. Although you do regularly see ridiculous clashes. Birr and Headfort are probably a decent distance apart to be ok - although there’s only one winner there for people traveling to play.

There was a silly one where two good courses nearby held theirs on the same day. Something like (not necessarily) Dun Laoghaire and Powerscourt. Can’t remember exactly who.

Anyway, these days, outside of the handful of big events, the Top Golfer stuff is the only game in town. Always well run. Always a good field. I have no affiliation to them what so ever, but they probably don’t get enough credit for reviving the scratch cup calendar.

It does actually. Junior/Intermediate scratch cups are just events of a different standard.

The same way Senior Scratch Cups are mickey mouse events compared to Championships like the Irish or British Amateur. And in turn, those are pub society outings compared to the PGA Tour.

They all count. But if you're going to belittle those of a slightly lower standard than you, it's worth checking yourself with a bit of perspective.

Shame you make no mention of minor scratch Cups anywhere in your post.
You may need to heed your own advice.

It was a tongue in cheek remark. A joke.
If you didn't want it to be derailed why not report my post and let it at that? No you merely suggested I have a look at my own perspectives.
I'm supposed to bow to that crap?
This place is just a glorified WhatsApp group these days. Hang onto it.

"These days". Compared to July 2017?

Your d*ck behaviour has been called out. Say what you like.

Ah yeah. If all else fails resort to the name calling.

Putting others of a slightly higher handicap down cos you’re a big shot senior cup player. Justifiable name calling in fairness.

You can search the GUI website for Open Fixtures.

They're all senior unless otherwise stated.

I got them mostly from the clubs themselves.

The clubs that are in twice have the category next to them, as mentioned above they are senior unless otherwise stated.

Is the minor category still available or have they got rid of that? [seen it on old scratch cup posts] and what handicap is the intermediate range?

Still around but have always been reasonably rare. You can search for them specifically on the GUI site Open Fixtures. Or even just use google.

slingerz

Intermediate range changes depending on the venue. Can never understand why the handicap ranges are not just fixed. Tralee last year had intermediate from 9-17 while Ballybunion was 12-18.

Surely it should be <5 senior, 5-11 Junior, 12-18 Intermdiate and 19+ Minor. That would roughly fit in with the various interclub team comp ranges too

Varies by course unfortunately. A general rule of thumb would be Senior <5, Junior 6-11, Intermediate 12-18 and minor 19+

WHIP IT!

Iv been wrecking my head emailing Golf Clubs and trying to gather info on Scratch Cups and uploading them to Facebook - wish I checked this out 1st :-(

slingerz

On these limits any inclination whether the changes to team comps will alter the handicap brackets applied to these competitions?

For example, I know of a Junior Scratch coming up in March which now includes 4 handicappers to coincide with the availability of 4 handicappers to play Junior Cup.

Will it be the case that Intermediate Scratch’s will go to 11 over the most common 12-17 brackets. Accepting that there are plenty of Scratch Cups that operate varying handicap ranges

I contacted a few clubs then I rang Munster GUI - Munster GUI said every Club chooses the Handicaps ranges and GUI Inter Clubs Comps have NOTHING to do with how a Club runs a Scratch Cup.
(They did state some clubs may put Junior from 4-10 and Intermediate 11-18 if they want THEIR TEAMS to practice and watch them) other clubs will follow "normal" format

Hope this makes sense

I contacted a few clubs then I rang Munster GUI - Munster GUI said every Club chooses the Handicaps ranges and GUI Inter Clubs Comps have NOTHING to do with how a Club runs a Scratch Cup.

Makes perfect sense.

I do think there is scope for the GUI to set down the parameters for each of these competitions though

Hi Lads,
Some info if wanted - I have 90% of the Scratch Cups on Facebook. If ye want to Search for a Page called "Scratch Cups and Open Singles" I'll add ye.

I see Intermediate is on Tralee on 9th June this year. A bit later than normal.

Anyone any idea if Ballybunion have followed suit? I can't find info for them
