Wednesday week 1 – Mixed grading and women’s round 1

The fixture for week 1 will be published Sunday evening, the 07th of May.

Week 1 will be a grading round comprising two half length games (equal to one full length game) for all teams except for the women’s matches, which are full length. These games are used to assess the level of play for teams, they do not count for premiership points, being grading there can be mismatches but it helps us better match teams for the rest of the season. More info on our season structure is available here.

Due to 3 week women’s competition in weeks 1-3 and the shortened night for state of origin in week 4, every mixed team will have 1-2 byes over the first 4 weeks. We will still ensure that every teams still get a 13 game season as usual (longer than other similar competitions).

Bye: Dunneworthy, Sugar Gliders, and The Lost Children
