Final standings

17 teams in a single league. Every team met every other once (16 games), and all but the Orange Lions Academy team played four more, 20 in all. All results count towards one final table. Places 1 to 8 went to the Final8, and the winner of the table earned the right to promote to the BNXT League. Places 15, 16 and 17 were relegated. Whether 13 and 14 went down too depended on a Dutch team relegated from the BNXT League and on the place of the OLA team, which could not be relegated itself.

Play-offs

The bracket runs from the first complete round to the final. Each series shows the games won, with every game below it from the top team's side. A round over two legs on total points is drawn as in the cup: both scores and the aggregate. Other games (play-in, third place) are in the list below. The number before a team is its place in the final table of the regular season (in a Benelux league: among the Dutch teams). It is shown only when the ties played fit that table.
