The top eight teams from the group phase will make their way into the Premier Knockout Cup. The top four teams will earn cash prizes, as well as spots in the Premier Division for Season Two.
Teams who don’t make it to the Premier Knockout Cup will be given the opportunity to compete in the Challenger Knockout Cup. The Challenger Knockout Cup will also have cash prizes up for grabs.
