Competition Format
Holes 1–9: Best Ball Stableford / Holes 10-18: Scramble
Holes 1–9
How to Play
For the first nine holes, each of the four teammates plays their own ball throughout the hole.
Scoring
Each player's score on every hole is converted into Stableford points using the team's handicap allowance.
Bogey = 1 point
Par = 2 points
Birdie = 3 points
Eagle = 4 points
Only the highest Stableford score from the four players counts for the team on each hole.
Add the best scores from all nine holes to produce the team's front-nine total.
The team with the highest Stableford points after nine holes wins the front-nine competition.
Holes 10-18. For the back nine, teams play a four-person scramble.
All four players tee off.
The team selects the best tee shot.
All players then play their next shot from the chosen position.
This process continues-selecting the best shot and all four players playing from that spot-until the ball is holed.
Placement
Balls should be placed within one club-length of the selected position, no nearer the hole, and in the same condition (e.g. fairway, rough, bunker).
On the green, the chosen ball is marked and each player putts from within one club-length of the marked spot, not closer to the hole.
