Step up for Munster
#StepUpForMunster
|
|
- Is Munster your home province?
- Are you an experienced and well-equipped hillwalker / mountaineer?
- Can you self-navigate confidently through rugged and exposed terrain in any weather using a hardcopy paper map and compass?
- Would you like to represent Munster in an all-Ireland sport?
If you answered yes to all four of the above questions, we invite you to #StepUpForMunster in the All-Ireland Hillwalking Provinces Championship. For a chance to become a member of your province's Sport Hillwalking team, you must log visits to High Point locations during the competition season using the Peakhunter smartphone app AND register them with us via our online Highpointeer Score Form no later than 30th September.
Find out when the current or upcoming championships are taking place by visiting our sports competition status page.
During October, the five highest point-scoring individuals representing Munster will be identified as the province's official Sport Hillwalking team in the All-Ireland Hillwalking Provinces Championship. Their scores added together will become the province's overall score for the year.
To represent Team Munster, you must also be representing one of its 6 county teams:
