League 1 Super 8s

Following Sunday’s victory at London Skolars we secured ourselves a top eight finish and a place in the League 1 Super 8s.

After the conclusion of the regular season on July 10th at Rochdale Hornets, we will find out our fixtures for the League 1 Super 8s which will commence on the weekend of July 22nd-July 24th.

Our final standing on July 10th will determine who we play and where in the Super 8’s.  The top four teams will be guaranteed four home games.  Below is the structure on how this is decided:

 

1st- Home 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th / Away 4th, 7th, 8th

2nd- Home 3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th / Away 1st, 5th, 8th

3rd- Home 4th, 5th, 7th, 8th / Away 1st, 2nd, 6th 

4th- Home 1st, 5th, 6th, 8th / Away 2nd, 3rd, 7th

5th- Home 2nd, 6th, 7th / Away 1st, 3rd, 4th, 8th

6th- Home 3rd, 7th, 8th / Away 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th

7th- Home 1st, 4th, 8th / Away 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th

8th- Home 1st, 2nd, 5th / Away 3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th 

 

All three/four Super 8 home matches are included in Dons season ticket packages.

 

League 1 play-offs 

Following the conclusion of the seven Super 8 matches, the League 1 play-offs begin.

1st will play 2nd for promotion straight to the Kingstone Press Championship.  This will be played at the home ground of 1st place.

The loser of that match will then play 5th place, whilst 3rd will play 4th for a place in the final of the play-offs, with the highest ranked teams having home advantage.

Two teams will then progress to the play-off final, the game will be held at the highest ranked team to reach the final.  The winner will then be gain the second promotion spot to the Championship.

Season ticket packages do not include play-off matches, should we have a home play-off match.
