Playoff Information

General Playoff Information


Please note that ALL PLAYOFF GAMES will be scheduled interspersed with Cup play as soon as possible to ensure the efficient conclusion of the league schedule.


All playoff games will be scheduled at a date, time and venue appointed by the League at its sole discretion.  The teams will have SHARED responsibility for field set-up as necessary. This may include setting up/repairing a net and providing two corner flags and one match ball.  

*Note: It is recommended that teams are prepared with the necessary equipment to set up the full field in case of oversight by the opposition.  Fines will be charged to teams failing to be ready to set up a field.


Home teams are responsible for the cost and set up of playoff games at their home field. Field costs and field set up are a split responsibility for playoff games at neutral venues. ALL referee payments are to be SPLIT EQUALLY by the teams.


Please note that ALL GAMES beyond Week 19 are SUBJECT TO CHANGE based on Cup play and season ending schedule optimization.


Teams should be prepared to play EVERY WEEKEND.  The League will endeavour to provide as much notice as reasonably possible for schedule updates but teams should be prepared to play on shorter than usual notice.

2025-26 Division 2 Seeding Playoffs

▲Top

The mid table Division 2 teams not participating in Promotion or Relegation playoffs will participate in Seeding Playoffs. Teams will be placed into Realignment Placing Groups of four based on the final position in the section standings.  Tie-breakers as outlined in Rule 5.3 will be used if necessary.

Each team will play each of the other teams in their Realignment Placing Group once.  Any game tied after 90 minutes will proceed directly to a penalty shootout where the winner of the shoot out gets an additional point.

The Final Group standings will provide an indication of the relative strength of the upper mid table teams across the three Division 2 sections and will be used to determine which pot each team is placed in during the 2026-27 Division 2 League Draw.
