For each individual league you play every team in that division once at home and once away. The team with the most points wins that division. The top 4 teams from the premier division go to the yearly playoffs and play a knockout tournament ending up in a final between 2 teams.
The top 2 teams from DIVISION 1 north and south also go to the playoffs to decide the overall winner of DIVISION 1. The winner of that final goes to a separate playoff against the last place team in the premier for a Promotion/Relegation playoff.
As for the conference league which was set up to allow the lower based teams a chance to play at a higher level, the top 2 teams play off to decide the overall champion of the conference.
The season runs from September to May and is approximately 36 games long. There is also a knockout cup that runs throughout the season in which every team registered is involved.
