Championship Format & Prizes

The championship is conducted over 54 holes of team and individual stroke play.

Each team may consist of four players. For each round, the three lowest individual scores will count toward the team score.

If two or more teams are tied for the team championship after 54 holes, the tie will be broken using the fourth player’s score from the final round (Round 3). If the teams remain tied, the fourth player’s score from Round 2 will be used. If the fourth player’s scores are identical in all rounds, the teams will share the team championship.

A tie for individual medalist will not be broken. Tied players will share the medalist title.

Top 8 Individuals for both Boys' and Girls' Divisions will receive All-Tournament Awards.
