Home School head into the competition seeking to extend their dominance after winning the 2024 and 2025 editions. Their back-to-back triumphs ended Premier Academy’s three-year winning streak, setting the stage for another competitive showdown.

The tournament will feature two categories, with the Main Event (Gross) counting the best three scores from a team of four golfers, while the Subsidiary Event (Net) will be decided by the best two scores from a team of three.
