The Winter Competition is a Stableford event played off a full handicap over eight rounds, with four rounds played on each course. The winner of the competition is the player with the highest number of points scored from three rounds of the eight including at least one round from either course.

There is also an Eclectic Competition over the rounds played in the Winter Competition. There is a separate Eclectic Competition for each course. The best gross score on each hole is taken over the four rounds played on each course. A handicap of ½ of the playing handicap on the date of the last round is applied to the gross score. The best net score on each course is the winner.

The winner and runner-up of the Winter Competition receive prizes at the annual dinner/dance, however there is no trophy for this event. The winner of each Eclectic Competition receives a cash prize derived from a portion of the competition entry fees received over the eight rounds.

In the event of a tie for the winner of the Winter or Eclectics Competitions the prizes are shared.
