The World Amateur Team Championship is conducted by the International Golf Federation. A record 75 teams from around the world have entered the 2006 Championship, which is being played at De Zalze Golf Club and Stellenbosch Golf Club.
The World Amateur Team title is determined by four days of stroke play. A country may field a team of two or three players. In each round, the total of the two lowest scores by players from each team constitutes the team score for the round. The four-day total is the team's score for the championship.
