Top 12 after qualifying will play Division A finals on the 7th week. Top 4 receive a first round bye. Ties for making Division A finals or receiving a bye will be broken by a 1-game tiebreaker. All other qualifiers who played at least 3 weeks will compete for trophies in Divisions B, C, etc. based on qualifying standings and number of players.
