Format

The home and away principle was kept but this principle was split over two consecutive seasons and worked according to the following example:[2]

  • in previous season 2020–21, Team A hosted Team B twice within a couple of days.
  • in current season 2021–22, Team B hosted Team A twice within a couple of days.

If one of the two matches played between two teams was cancelled, the winner of the other match would have received double points.

Teams

Originally, nine teams were scheduled to compete in a round-robin tournament, being played from October 2021 to June 2022. On 17 September 2021, both New Zealand and Australia withdrew due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the travel restrictions coming with it.[3][4] Canada and South Africa joined on 8 December 2021.[5][6] On 17 January 2022, Canada withdrew due to the COVID-19 Omicron variant and the travel restrictions coming with it, six weeks after being named New Zealand substitute.[7] France was announced as Canada's substitute on 25 January 2022.[8][9]
