The Scramble is the most popular format for group tournaments because it encourages teamwork. Players are in teams of four. In putting together the teams, the tournament organsier needs to know the golfing ability of the participants; it may be necessary to ask the golfers for their handicaps. Each team member tees off, but the team plays its second shots from where the best drive landed. Play continues in this fashion through putting. A scramble helps develop camaraderie among the players, eliminates embarrassment over poor shots, and allows everyone to make a contribution. Optionally, you can impose a rule that each player must contribute a minimum number of tee shots (e.g. at least three per player)
