The All-Ireland Clubs League is our way of celebrating the accomplishments of walking clubs within the High Point Ireland community.
To be ranked in the Clubs League, individual members from each participating walking club must submit their own personal Highpointeer Score Forms before the end of 31st December. The club must also submit a Club Entry Form before the end of 31st December listing the names of up to five of its members who have each submitted their own personal Highpointeer Score Forms. Those members' combined point-scores will become the club's official score in the competition. |
There are three awards available in this category:
The Clubs League is only open to walking clubs who are listed as Associated Walking Clubs on the High Point Ireland website. If your walking club does not appear on our Associated Walking Clubs list, please tell the club committee about our annual Clubs League so they can arrange to get listed. If you are a committee member of a non-associated walking club, we invite you to get your club listed so it can be represented in this unique all-Ireland competition.
- Gold Award: received by the walking club with the highest points score.
- Silver Award: received by the entrant with the second highest points score.
- Bronze Award: received by the entrant with the third highest points score.

The rules
Individual club members
Club committee members
- Download the Peakhunter app to your smartphone and set up a profile. Peakhunter is our official logging partner.
- Visit High Point locations in Ireland. Log these High Point visits while present at the location using the Peakhunter app.
- Register your High Point visits with us using our online Highpointeer Score Form before the end of 31st December.
- The Clubs League competition starts on 1st January and ends on 31st December each year. During this year-long competition, you are permitted to count up to four visits to each High Point location towards your club's total points-score for the year.
- If visiting the same High Point location more than once, you must allow at least 48 hours between visits. Multiple visits to the same location within the same 48-hour period will only count as one visit. This is to ensure that you do not simply step out of a High Point's logging zone and back in immediately to log it again. Please note that all Peakhunter logs are time-stamped.
- Highpointeer Score Forms and Club Entry Forms received after 31st December of the respective awards year will not be considered.
- All of the rules above apply to all of our year-long, points-based award and league competitions.
- All of the rules above (excluding the set dates) also apply to our year-long, metres-based 10,000m Challenge.

Winner selection

- Each completed Highpointeer Score Form received is manually checked and verified.
- After the submissions deadline (31st December), the final version of the spreadsheet containing all verified Highpointeer Score Forms received during the year is interrogated and the three highest scoring clubs are identified. Each club's team can comprise a maximum of 5 individual Highpointeers whose combined points scores become their club's overall points score for the year.
- The highest scoring club receives the Gold Award, the second highest receives Silver, and the third highest receives Bronze.
