Putting challenge:

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.
