These foursomes go out and play three 9 hole matches during a the first round of play. Player A plays Player B and Player C plays Player D for the first nine holes. Then A plays C, B plays D in the second nine hole match. The first round continues with A playing D and B playing C. Toward the end of these 27 holes stop and grab a quick lunch as you pass the clubhouse. Same format for the afternoon. Then we party at the camp site. Pig Roast, bonfire, live music, putting contest, swimming, whatever. Sunday: Same as Saturday morning... After each team has have played all of the other teams in the field, match points are added up, and the top two teams play each other head to head in a 9 hole match to award Gold and Silver medals. The third and fourth place teams play off for the Bronze and Copper. Awards, pictures and we go home. Tournament Point system The format has been match play from the beginning. One point is at stake in each match -- For example, Open player #1 from Team A plays Open player #1 from Team B in a nine hole match. The player with the most holes won is the winner of the match, and earns a match point for his/her team. Ties in the match earns both players' teams 1/2 point. An accumulated match points system is used. All players (an am Master playing a pro Master for example) must play the same course, and that the points accrued by teams in the preliminary rounds are used to set the seeding for the medal round, but do not carry over into the medal matches. The top two teams from the preliminary rounds play for the gold medal, the third and fourth place teams after the preliminary rounds play for the bronze. We use the match points system to determine the medal round seeding because it makes every match played equally important.
