Each team is divided into pairs and each pair begins play on a different hole on the putting course. Players play alternate shots in their pair until they have finished their hole (i.e. the ball has been played from the tee to the hole/hoop). The number of shots taken is recorded for the hole before they rotate clockwise on to the next hole. This is repeated until all pairs have completed all holes. The total number of shots taken for each pair is then recorded on each scorecard. The total number of shots taken for all pairs is the total score for the team. The team with the lowest score of all is the winner.
