It was played in odd-numbered years from 1959 to 2007 and has been played annually since 2008 (with the exception of 2012).

Format

Currently, the championship is contested by up to 20 teams, each of 6 players.

The format consists of two rounds of strokeplay, out of which the five lowest scores from each team's six players will count each day. The total addition of the five lowest scores will constitute the team's score and determine the teams qualified for the last three rounds of matchplay. Only teams in contention for a medal will play a match format of two foursomes and five singles, while the other teams will play a one foursome and four singles match format.
