Each player is guaranteed to play 1 - 24 hole round, only two teams will play a 2nd round.

Round 1 each Player will be seeded by their captains within their own team and play a 8 hole Match Play against each person on their card. 24 total holes.

Round 2 will be the 2 teams will the most points brought in from round 1. Each player will play an 18 hole match play against their seed.

Example:

You are the 10 Seed Upper player, you will start on hole 10 and play the other three 10 Seed Upper players, each of them in an 6-hole match play format match. The first person will be played on holes 10-15, the second person would be a fresh start and you're playing them during holes 16-3, the last person would be a fresh start and you're playing against them during holes 4-9. You will then have three point totals to bring back to your team that determines your teams overall points for the round. There would be a total of 8 points available per 8 hole match.

Push the hole - both players get a half point (.5)
Win the hole - full point (1)

Example total points:

Nick vs. Greg -- 2.5 / 3.5 (Nick won 2 holes, Greg won 3 holes and they pushed one hole) (Meanwhile Anthony is playing David)

Nick vs. Anthony -- 4 / 2 (Nick won 4 holes, Anthony won 2 holes)(Meanwhile Greg is playing David)

Nick vs. David -- 3 / 3 (Nick and David pushed (got the same score) on every hole and got their half points on each hole) (Meanwhile Anthony is playing Greg)

Nick will go back to his team with a total of 9.5 points.

Greg, Anthony and David will also go back to their teams with a determined point total from their respective matches. (this example only applies to Nick).
