- Declared squads can be up to 8 in strength but players can only be registered with one team – two examples the 7th seed for the A Team cannot play for the B Team and similarly the 2nd seed for the B team cannot play for the A team. Careful consideration of selection is therefore required.

- Team seedings will need to be confirmed in the first week of November and will then be fixed.
