The league organiser reserves the right to make minor changes to the final group entries to handle extraordinary scenarios.

Where there are a number of teams finishing in the same position across groups their sets won and games wons % will be used to help rank them.

A trophy is presented to the team that wins each knockout group and the winners of knockout group 1 are crowned overall league champions. All trophies will be presented and the final of group 1 will be played at the finale day on Sunday 7th April at the Northumberland Club.
