The official calendar advertised the Masters for 28–30 November. The organiser's subsequent report describes a separate ten-player State of Origin competition on Friday, followed by the Super 7s tournament on Saturday and Sunday.[1][2]

== Competition ==
The Semi-Professional division competed in its own pool, rather than sharing preliminary fixtures with Professional teams. Semi-Professional competition used two fields, with 14 preliminary rounds followed by quarter-finals for the leading eight teams.[2]

Amateur teams played on the second field and completed 12 preliminary games, with their preliminary schedule concluding on Sunday morning.[2]

== Results ==
The organiser's event report published the following final placings for all three divisions.[2]
