On par fours, both tee-off, the lady then plays the man’s ball and the man plays the lady’s ball, the better ball is then selected, alternate shots are then taken until the hole is complete. On par fives, both tee-off, the man plays two consecutive shots with the lady’s ball and the lady  does the same with the man’s ball, the better ball is then selected, alternate shots are taken until the hole is complete. The scoring is based on stroke play off ˝-combined handicap. The competition is played on the last bank holiday in August (see fixtures).
