Clubs will each play their fixtures on a league basis. Clubs which have performed strongest in their respective competitions in the regular season will be rewarded with four fixtures as follows: the top four Betfred Super League clubs will play four home matches; in the Qualifiers, the team finishing 9th and 10th in Betfred Super League and the top two teams from the Kingstone Press Championship will have four home matches; in the Kingstone Press Championship Shield, clubs finishing the regular Kingstone Press Championship season in 5th to 8th place will have four home fixtures; in the Kingstone Press League 1 Super 8s the top four teams will play four home games and in the Kingstone Press League 1 Shield all seven teams will play three home and three away games.
In Betfred Super League, Kingstone Press Championship Shield, League 1 and League 1 Shield the competing clubs will carry over the points and scoring records from the regular season into the Super 8s. The Qualifiers will start with zero points because the eight clubs are drawn from two different competitions.
The Super 8s fixtures are produced using a merit formula which rewards teams for the consistency and excellence of their results in the regular season. The higher a team finishes after 23 rounds, the more favourable their fixtures in the Super 8s are. For example, the team that finishes 1st will have home games against the teams finishing 2nd and 3rd, and be away to the teams that finished in 7th and 8th.
As with the regular season, the scheduling of fixtures will be determined by a range of factors, including the fairest balance of alternate home and away games for all clubs, stadium availability and broadcast preferences.
In Betfred Super League, teams are ranked 1 to 8 based on finishing positions after 23 rounds.
In The Qualifiers, teams finishing 9th and 10th in the regular Betfred Super League season are ranked 1 and 2, and teams finishing the regular Kingstone Press Championship season 1st and 2nd are ranked 3 and 4. Betfred Super League clubs finishing 11th and 12th are ranked 5 and 6, and Kingstone Press Championship clubs finishing 3rd and 4th are ranked 7 and 8
In the Kingstone Press Championship Shield, teams finishing the regular Kingstone Press Championship season in 5th to 12th place are ranked 1 to 8.
The Qualifiers grid has to be slightly different because of the way in which the Qualifiers brings together clubs from two different competitions, the Betfred Super League and Kingstone Press Championship. The principle of a merit formula rewarding teams who finish higher in their respective League remains unchanged: the Betfred Super League clubs finishing 9th and 10th and the Kingstone Press Championship Clubs finishing 1st and 2nd will each have four home games.
Details of the Super 8s fixtures for Kingstone Press League 1 and the League 1 Shield will be confirmed on the morning of Wednesday July 19 and fixtures will begin on Sunday July 30.
