Following the three-day championship, qualifying boys and girls from each age group from 11 to 14 years old are selected to play in the Van Horn Cup, a one-day best ball tournament on Craigielaw Golf Club.

Selection Procedure

Participants will be selected based on their score after 36 holes (Round 2). Once 36-hole scores are compiled, the European Van Horn Cup selections and an alternate list will be published. The top four players in each age group (Ages 11 to 14) will be selected, seeded, and given team assignments for the event.

In each match, the team with the lowest score after 18 holes will win one point for his/her team. A playoff will determine the winner if the competition ends in a tie.

Awards:

Awards will be presented to the winners of each match. After the event, the Van Horn Cup trophy will be presented to the winning team.
