The WA Thundersticks won the gold medal for the ninth time by defeating the NSW Waratahs 4–3 in the final.[1]

Competition format

The format included five round-matches over two weekends and a finals week that consisted of two round-matches and three pool matches for a place in the final.

After all the round matches were complete the teams were ranked 1–8 depending on the total number of points earned in all their round matches.

The teams ranked 1, 4, 6 & 8 progressed to Pool A, while teams ranked 2, 3, 5 & 7 progressed to Pool B. All previously earned points were removed with the teams in each pool playing each other once more. At the completion of the pool matches, the top team from each pool advanced to the League Final.[2]
