At the beginning of the season, teams aimed to be in the top six after the conclusion of fixtures in September to qualify for the play-offs.

There is still a long way to go and the top six teams currently are Durbell, Villager, UCT, Helderberg, Hamiltons and newbie Van der Stel-Evergreens.

Hamiltons have to play catchup as they only played four games and won all four and the teams above them should enjoy their positions on the log as Hammies are the only unbeaten team at the moment.
