To be eligible to play for a club in the Dixon Cup a player must have represented that club in least one league match that current season. In the event that s League has only played 6 men or players are not available on the day, a reserve player can take part but will not be counted as part of the best 6 scores.

Traditionally, whenever possible, the competition is played on the second Sunday in September each year. The venue is at a neutral Club (not the winners of the relevant league) and played on a rotational basis around all of the leagues.
