Format edit
The home and away principle was kept for the season, which was divided into date blocks. To assist with competition planning, international and national, several teams gather in one venue to contest “mini-tournaments," wherein they each play two matches against one another.[1]
If one of the two matches played between two teams is cancelled, the winner of the other match receives double points.
This season winner will earn direct qualification for the 2026 World Cup.
Teams edit
Following the announcement of New Zealand's withdrawal for this current season, the United States will rejoin despite the relegation earned in the previous season.[2]
