== Notes on the records ==

The 1997 Las Vegas GWS five-player event ran alongside a separate NPPL ten-player tournament. The NPPL results are excluded from this summary. [1]

WARPIG's 1997 San Francisco summary places Marine Team Gold first in amateur five-player, agreeing with ClassicScores. Its detailed scoreboard gives Marine Team Red more final-round points. The table follows the published summary without resolving this discrepancy. [4][8]

At Portland in 1998, KAPP and Lofty tied in their deciding novice ten-player games. With neither team assessed final-round penalty points, KAPP won through its higher preliminary-round score. [5]
