In 2010 the Holden Scramble, Australasia’s largest and most successful team’s event, will enter its nineteenth season.

Over the last 18 years over 650,000 amateurs have played in more than 5500 local Scramble events throughout Australia and New Zealand all competing for their chance to play alongside some of Australia and New Zealand’s biggest names in golf at the Championship final on the Sunshine Coast.

Major sponsor Holden, along with supporting sponsors Callaway Golf, Sunshine Coast Regional Council, Novotel Twin Waters Resort, Twin Waters Golf Club & Golf Australia Magazine will help ensure that the 2010 season is yet again another success.

In 2010 the Holden Scramble will be played as a four person teams ambrose event, under a new elimination style format as outlined below:

• All team members tee off each hole
• Team chooses the shot they are going to use
• The golfer whose shot is taken is eliminated from participating in the next shot
• A player is only eliminated for the one shot following his/her selected shot
• This process continues up until the ball is on the putting green, and then all four players have the oppurtunity to sink the putt.
• All four players tee off the next hole and the revised elimination process begins again, until ball is placed on the putting green
• The eliminated player cannot take a practice shot or putt during the time they are eliminated
• Should a player take a shot or putt during the time they are eliminated such a situation would be handled with a two stroke penalty and would be considered as “taking a practice shot” under the Rules of Golf.

For the purpose of the Holden Scramble a putt is considered to be a putt when the ball lies on the green.

• For example:
- Peter, Paul, John & Jane tee off the first hole, Peter’s drive is selected as the best shot
- Peter is eliminated for the next shot and only Paul, John & Jane take the second shot
- Jane’s second shot is selected as the best shot out of Paul, Jane & John’s second shot
- Jane is eliminated for the next shot, unless her shot lands on the putting green, then Peter, Paul, John & Jane can putt.
- Peter, Paul, John & Jane continue to putt until they sink the putt.
- Peter, Paul, John & Jane all tee off the second hole & the revised elimination process starts again

The three tee shot rule, will remain unchanged for this year.
