The Jacques Léglise Trophy is an annual international match played between two selected teams of nine amateur golfers under the age of 18 representing the Continent of Europe and Great Britain & Ireland.
The 2017 Jacques Léglise Trophy will be played at Ballybunion (Old Course), Ireland. More information and livescoring of the 2017 match will be available on the R&A website here.
History:
The match was inaugurated in 1958 as a boys international match but suspended in 1966. It was rejuvenated in 1977 when the late Jean-Louis Dupont of Golf de Chantilly donated a trophy in memory of Jacques Léglise, who had served as President of the French Golf Federation and of the European Golf Association.
The GB&I team is selected by The R&A and the Continent of Europe side by the European Golf Association.
