Surrey Storm finished top of the table after the regular season but subsequently lost to both Team Bath and Hertfordshire Mavericks in the playoffs.

For a fourth season out of five, Team Bath defeated Mavericks in the grand final.

During the close season, Brunel Hurricanes ended their partnership with Brunel University London, relocated to the University of Surrey and became Surrey Storm.

This saw the top two from the regular season, Surrey Storm and Team Bath, play each other, with the winner going straight through to the grand final.

The third and fourth placed teams, Northern Thunder and Hertfordshire Mavericks also play each other, and the winner advances to the minor final.
