The team with the most points in the Premiership qualifier gets the last Premiership spot. The remaining two teams are placed in Division 1.

Two more spots are up for the grabs in Division 1. The team with least points from the Division 1 qualifier goes down to Division 2, the other two teams are seeded into Division 1.

Each map is worth 3 points, golden caps have to be played in case of a map draw.
