Format

The competition was opened with 'Series 1', a set of closed competitions between four pairs of teams representing the country's eight largest states and territories. In 'Series 2', teams representing Vic Country, Vic Metro, Queensland and Western Australia were joined by Central and Eastern Allies teams representing teams of the combined regions of Northern Territory and South Australia (Central) as well as New South Wales, ACT and Tasmania (Eastern). Each team played a total of three matches in that series.

Vic Metro finished the round-robin 'Series 2' as the only team undefeated in that series, making them the de facto tournament winners.[1] The competition's best player award was won by Vic Metro's Georgia Patrikios.[2]
