- ALES Jug – Teams finishing 5th and 6th in each group
- ALES Wooden Spoon – Teams finishing 7th and 8th in each group

Match Format
All matches follow BlackBall rules and are split into three sections:
- 5 Singles matches
- 3 Doubles matches
- 5 Singles matches
Players are locked into their assigned sections, after which the app will automatically randomise the match order.
This ensures a fair draw and prevents stronger teams from strategically front-loading players during the knockout stages.
Note - this is different to how the current league format has been played all year. This format will return for the League but will NOT be used in the Cup.
