Understanding the Regular Season and World Championship format
League Phase
During the HSBC SVNS regular season, teams compete across multiple tournaments around the world. Teams earn Series Points depending on where they finish at each event.
| Finish | Points |
|---|---|
| 1st Place | 22 |
| 2nd Place | 19 |
| 3rd Place | 17 |
| 4th Place | 15 |
| 5th Place | 13 |
| 6th Place | 12 |
| 7th–16th | Decreases by 1 point per position |
Season Finals
The HSBC SVNS season champion is not automatically crowned after the regular season ends. Instead, the top-performing teams advance to a season-ending World Championship Series.
The highest-ranked teams from the regular season qualify for the World Championship Series.
Previous regular season points are wiped clean, meaning every qualified team starts level again.
Teams compete across the final championship events to determine the ultimate HSBC SVNS World Champion.
