The 1965 European Amateur Team Championship took place 23–27 June at Royal St George's Golf Club in Sandwich, Kent, England and at nearby Royal Cinque Ports in Deal. It was the fourth men's golf European Amateur Team Championship.
Venue
Royal St George's Golf Club was founded in 1887 and had previously hosted The Open Championship nine times, but not since 1949. It came back to the Open Championship rotation in 1981. For the 1965 European Amateur Team Championship, the course was set up with par 70 over 6,742 yards. The teams in flights A, B and C played their matches at Royal St George's, while the teams in flights D and E played their matches at Royal Cinque Ports.
Format
All participating teams played two qualification rounds of stroke-play, counting the four best scores out of up to six players for each team. The four best teams formed flight A, the next four teams formed flight B, the next three teams formed flight C, the next three teams formed flight D and the last three teams formed flight E.
The standings in each flight was determined by a round-robin system. All teams in the flight met each other and the team with most points for team matches in flight A won the tournament, using the scale, win=2 points, halved=1 point, lose=0 points. In each match between two nation teams, three foursome games and six single games were played. Teams were allowed to switch players during the team matches and select other players in to the afternoon single games after the morning foursome games.
Teams
17 nation teams contested the event. Each team consisted of a minimum of six players.
