Competition format edit
Format edit
The 2023 Hockey One season followed the same format as previous season. Teams will play a series of home and away matches during the pool stage, which will be followed by a classification round.
During the pool stage, teams play each other once in either a home or a way fixture. The top four ranked teams will qualify for the classification round, playing in two semi-finals with the winners contesting the final and losers the third place match. Like the previous season, the finals will be held over a single weekend at a central location.
