This year’s competition will be a Ryder Cup Format. Contestants will be divided into 4 teams, representing the

following Lithuanian cities: Vilnius (Yellow), Kaunas (Green), Palanga (Blue) and Utena (Red)

This is a two day team competition with the winning team having the most points. Teams will be identified

and posted 4-5 days prior to the event.

PLAYERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO WEAR SHIRTS MATCHING THEIR TEAM COLORS.

2 person best ball NET match play – each match is worth a possible 6 points with 2 points for the first nine, 2

points for the back nine and 2 points for the total (all 18 holes).

We will play “no touch” with the exception of your own fairway and no concessions (“gimmies”) are allowed

and must be holed out. Handicap strokes will be given as stated on the scorecard. Be careful to note that

women’s handicap holes are different than men’s handicap holes. Also the maximum score on any hole is 10,
