Stage 1

In Stage 1, all teams will be in one of 2 regional tournaments, with teams seeded into 3 skill groups within these regions. In the first round, teams will play another team in the same skill group and in the following rounds be matched versus teams with a similar record in the tournament.

Stage 3

In Stage 3, all teams in the National League and the top teams in each region will qualify for single elimination playoff brackets, with top performing teams getting byes into later rounds.
