Each team consisted of six players. On the first two days each player played 18 holes of stroke play each day. The lowest five scores from each team's six players counted to the team total each day.
The eight best teams formed flight A, in knock-out match-play over the following 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. Teams were allowed to use six players during the team matches, selecting four of them in the two morning foursome games and five players in to the afternoon single games. Teams knocked out after the quarter finals played one foursome game and four single games in each of their remaining matches. Extra holes were played in games that were all square after 18 holes. However, if the result of the team match was already decided, undecided games were declared halved.[7]
Due to bad whether, the schedule of play was delayed, why the final and the bronze match were shortened, each to be played with one foursome game and four single games.
16 nation teams contested the event. Qualified were the top 13 teams from the 2023 European Amateur Team Championship, including host nation Italy, and the three top teams from the 2023 European Amateur Team Championship Division 2, Scotland, Portugal and Austria.
