How it works
Split into teams in pairings.
Everyone plays their own ball.
The lowest score on the team counts for the hole.
Lowest team total to par wins.
Scoring
- Scored gross. One ball counts per team per hole.
- Teams come straight from your pairings.
- Add it when you create the round, next to your other games.
Example
| Hole | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Par | 4 | 5 | 3 | 4 |
| Sam · A | 4 | 4 | 3 | 5 |
| Dale · A | 5 | 5 | 3 | 4 |
| Marcus · B | 5 | 6 | 2 | 5 |
| Tommy · B | 4 | 5 | 4 | 6 |
| Team scores | A 4 · B 4 | A 4 · B 5 | A 3 · B 2 | A 4 · B 5 |
Each team counts only its lowest score. Marcus's birdie on the 3rd carries team B, but Dale's par on the 4th wins it back. Team A finishes 1 under, team B at even.
