2013 ITM Cup#Round 4

The ITM Cup standings were sorted by a competition points system. Four points were awarded to the winning team, a draw equaled two points, whilst a loss amounted to zero points. Unions could also win their side a respectable bonus point. To receive a bonus point, they must have scored four tries or more or lose by seven or fewer points or less.{{cite news| title=Adjustment to Mitre 10 Heartland Championship bonus points system|url=http://rugbyheartland.co.nz/wp/2016/09/02/adjustment-to-mitre-10-heartland-championship-bonus-points-system/|website=Rugby Heartland|date=2 September 2016}} Each team was placed on their total points received. If necessary of a tiebreaker, when two or more teams finish on equal points, the union who defeated the other in a head-to-head got placed higher. In case of a draw between them, the side with the biggest points deferential margin got rights to be ranked above. If they were tied on points difference, it was then decided by a highest scored try count or a coin toss.{{cite web|url=http://files.allblacks.com/legal_and_judicial/NZR_2016_Competitions_Regulations_Handbook.pdf|title=New Zealand Rugby Union Competition Regulations Handbook 2016|publisher=New Zealand Rugby|access-date=1 September 2017|archive-date=12 July 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190712231129/http://files.allblacks.com/legal_and_judicial/NZR_2016_Competitions_Regulations_Handbook.pdf|url-status=dead }} This seeding format was implemented since the beginning of the 2006 competition.

The competition included a promotion-relegation process with the winner of the Championship receiving automatic promotion to the Premiership, replacing the seventh-placed team in the Premiership which was relegated to the Championship for the following year. The regular season consisted of two types of matches. The internal division matches were when each team played the other six unions in their division once, home or away. The cross-division matches were when each team played four teams from the other division, thus missing out on three teams, each from the opposite division. Each union played home or away games against teams from the other division, making a total of ten competition games for each union.{{cite web|url= http://www.manawaturugby.co.nz/article/1863.html|title=2010 ITM Cup Competition Structures|publisher=Manawatu Rugby Union|access-date=7 August 2010|url-status = dead|archive-url = https://archive.today/20130223161744/http://www.manawaturugby.co.nz/article/1863.html|archive-date=23 February 2013 }} The finals format allowed the top four teams from each division move on to the semi-finals. The top two division winners, based on table points, received a home semi-final. In the first round of the finals, the semi-finals, the second division winner hosted the third division winner, and the first division winner hosted the fourth division winner. The final was hosted by the top remaining seed.{{cite web|url=http://www.itmcup.co.nz/itmCupnews/20886/ITM-Cup-Finals-schedule|title=ITM Cup Finals schedule|publisher=All Blacks|access-date=24 October 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130116061427/http://itmcup.co.nz/itmCupnews/20886/ITM-Cup-Finals-schedule|archive-date=16 January 2013 }}
