It is considered an EXTRA RANGE with Colomiers and another in Béziers or Narbonne. For the 1st EXTRA RANGE, the meetings are determined by the reactualized classification of the past season. The matches will be thus: - LEZIGNAN/PIA - CARCASSONNE/LIMOUX - UTC/ST GAUDENS - CARPENTRAS/LYON - VILLENEUVE/AVIGNON For the 2nd EXTRA RANGE, the matches will be fixed according to the same principle, but according to the classification at the end of the phase outward journey of this season (with number of equal match for all). 2nde innovation: the formula of the play-offs.
