Competition rules and information

There were six participating teams in the 2016 Currie Cup First Division.

Qualification

The six franchise teams automatically qualified to the 2016 Currie Cup Premier Division, and were joined by the three highest-placed non-franchise teams from the 2016 Currie Cup qualification stage. The remaining six teams from the qualification stage qualified for the Currie Cup First Division.

Regular season and title play offs

The six teams that qualified for the First Division played against each other over the course of the competition, either at home or away. Teams received four points for a win and two points for a draw. Bonus points were awarded to teams that scored 4 or more tries in a game, as well as to teams that lost a match by 7 points or less. Teams were ranked by log points, then points difference (points scored less points conceded).

The top four teams qualified for the semi-finals, which were followed by a final.^[1]
