The Pitch and Putt Union of Ireland (P.P.U.I.) is the governing body for pitch and putt in Ireland.

The sport of pitch and putt originated in Cork in the 1930s, and developed elsewhere in Ireland throughout the 1940s.[1][2][3][4][5] Originally governed by two separate organisations (the Irish Amateur Pitch and Putt Union in Munster, and a separate later organisation in Leinster), these formed a "united union" in 1960.[5] This new organisation, the Pitch and Putt Union of Ireland, would later become a founding member of the European Pitch and Putt Association in 2000, and the Federation of International Pitch and Putt Associations from 2006.[6][7]
