How the scoring works
NEC match play. League matches are eight-on-eight over nine holes. Each head-to-head match is worth 9 points, so there are 72 points on offer and 36.5 wins it. A golfer who wins 6–3 took six of the nine points in their match.
Non-league matches use the other team's format: Stableford points, where the higher total wins, or stroke play, where the lower total wins.
Postseason is 18 holes of stroke play: six golfers a team, best four scores count. This is the last season of match play: from 2027 the MIAA moves every fall golf match to stroke play and replaces sectionals with divisional championships.
