Prior to the main draft a draw will determine the order in which each team will pick their players. The team drawn to pick first will select first in the opening round and last in the second round.
Each team will have 100 seconds to pick each player, and the draft will take two and a half hours in total, as the matches will.
Teams can have up to three overseas players in their squads.
