In 2016 changes were made to the Currie Cup competition. There was a qualification competition played amongst all 14 South African provinces and a team from Namibia (Welwitschias). The six Super Rugby franchise teams all automatically qualified for the Currie Cup Premier Division. They were joined by the next 3 best finishing teams in the qualifying series. The other 6 teams played in the Currie Cup First Division. Teams played each other once and at the completion of these games, the top 4 teams play in Semi-Finals, with the winners progressing on to the Final. |
