The championship is played over three days with the four teams competing against each other in individual matches. Each team has 16 players, 7 women and 9 men. A match consists of 7 foursomes (3 women and 4 men) and 14 singles (6 women and 8 men) each over 18 holes. The result is decided by team results with each team scoring one point for a team win and half a point for a halved match. Ties are resolved by the number of individual matches won. The teams compete in separate women's and men's competitions as well as the combined event. The winning women's team receives the Miller International Shield, first presented in 1905, while winning men's team receives the Raymond Trophy, first presented in 1952.
