It was the 15th women's golf amateur European Ladies' Team Championship. Venue Turnberry (golf course) thumb|240px|left|The 10th and 12th holes on the Ailsa course The Ailsa Course, situated 80 kilometres south of Glasgow, Scotland, on headland along the Firth of Clyde, overlooking the Isle of Arran and Ailsa Craig, was initially opened with 13 holes in 1901, designed by Willie Fernie, and later completed to 18 holes. It was redesigned by Mackenzie Ross between 1949 and 1951. The course had previously hosted The Open Championship twice; 1977 and 1986. The championship course was set up with par 73. On the first day of competition, it was blowing strong winds on the course. The second day it was warm and windless. The third day, when the quarterfinals was intended to take place, heavy rain caused play to be postponed to the day after. Format All participating teams played two qualification rounds of stroke-play with six players, counted the five best scores for each team. The eight best teams formed flight A, in knock-out match-play over the next three days. The teams were seeded based on their positions after the stroke-play. The first placed team was drawn to play the quarter-final against the eight placed team, the second against the seventh, the third against the sixth and the fourth against the fifth. In each match between two nation teams, two 18-hole foursome games and five 18-hole single games were to be played. Because of delay of play, due to bad weather, quarter finals and semi finals were played on the same day, without foursome games and only with five single games. Teams were allowed to switch players during the team matches, selecting other players in to the afternoon single games after the morning foursome games. If a game was all square after 18 holes, it was declared halved, if the team match was already decided. The five teams placed 9–13 in the qualification stroke-play formed Flight B, to meet each other over three rounds to decide their final positions. Teams 13 nation teams contested the event. Each team consisted of six players.
