Round Robin Scoring System: During a match against another team, each team will nominate 5 pairs to take on 5 pairs from the opposing team. When one pair plays another pair from the opposing team, the combined stableford score of both the partners on each hole will be compared with the combined stableford score of the opposing pair on that hole to determine which pair wins the hole.
The total number of holes won by both the teams, after adding the wins for all the 5 pairs in the team, will be compared to determine which team has won the match and they will get 3 points for a Win and 1 point each in case they have the same number of wins.
