Each association selected a 12-person team consisting of eight men and four women. The representation includes four mid-amateur men of 25 years of age or older, two men of 40 years or older, two senior men of 55 years or older, two mid-amateur women of 25 years or older and two senior women of 50 years or older.
The annual Ryder Cup-style competition includes four-ball and foursome matches the first day and singles matches on the second and final day.
