Fixed teams — each day a team scores the total of its best N players
6–144 playersMulti-Group
📖
How It Works
Players are split into fixed teams that stay together for the whole event. Everyone plays their own ball and posts their own score. Each day, a team's score is the total of its best N players' rounds — for example the best 5 of a 6-player team — and the rest are dropped. The team with the best total wins the day.
🧮
Scoring
Stableford points by default: each counted player's net Stableford points are added up, and the most points wins. It can also be scored as Quota (each player's points over their own quota, added up) or as net stroke play (net strokes to par, added up, lowest wins). Groups still on the course are compared on their pace so far, so a team isn't penalised for a late tee time.
💰
Payout
By default the winning team takes that game's share of the pot, and it is split equally among the team's members who played that day. It can instead pay several places by the event's payout split. Players settle with each other directly; theStick keeps the ledger.
⚙️
Options & Variations
Best N counted per team (or every member), the scoring format (Stableford, Quota or Stroke), the handicap allowance, and winner-takes-all or paid places. The fixed teams are this game's own, separate from any daily partners — so you can run 2-player partner games and fixed 6-player teams in the same round.
📖
Availability
Fully scorable inside a League or Tournament event — set it up under the event's games. It can't run as a single casual round on its own (it needs the event's shared field and pot), so it shows as League Only in the standard game picker.
