The Region held its Annual General Meeting in Madison, WI on January 11.[47]

The wild card will be awarded to the remaining team from among all the conferences with the highest regular season points-per-game. Seeding for the playoff weekend will be determined by points-per-game over the regular season.

Two semi-final matches will take place on Saturday, July 19 with a final taking place on Sunday, July 20.[20]

  • Each conference champion receives a playoff berth. The next best team based on points per game receives a playoff berth as the wildcard team.
