Once the Season concludes, the top–50 players in both the men’s and women’s fields advance to the Flinders Cup Playoffs, a series of two events, the first for 50 players offering double points and the second for 30 players offering triple points relative to Season events.

Format is as follows:

The top 50 players from the Season, will be eligible to play in the Flinders Cup Playoffs. In the event that any top qualifying players are unable or chooses not to play in the opening Playoff event, the field will be shortened, and no alternates will be added.

The Flinders Cup Playoffs will feature a progressive cut through the first two events to determine the final 20 players who qualify for the TOUR Championship.

2nd Playoff: September Sir James Barrett Midweek Medal: Triple Points

Flinders Cup Final: October Saturday Monthly Medal: Quadruple Points. (Date subject to AFL Grand Final).

At the conclusion of the 2nd playoff event the top 20 players in both fields in the Flinders Cup points standings will be eligible for the Tour Championship will be based on their points total. The top points winner for men or women must play in the Tour Championship to be eligible for a prize. Following the Tour Championship, the points each player earns based on their finish at the Tour Championship will be added to their points and the player with the highest point total will be named winner of the Flinders Cup.
