Playoffs

Because there are more teams in the Northern Division than the South, the top 6 teams in the Northern Division make playoffs instead of 4. The third, fourth, fifth and sixth teams play in a "Survivor Series" best of five to see who will play in the playoffs. This year, the Tri-Town Thunder defeated the West Central Rage in three games to advance to play the Delisle Chiefs, the Saskatoon Westleys and Saskatoon Royals are currently competing to see who plays the Saskatoon Quakers.
