The overall league rankings are adjusted based on the promotions and relegations (see Paragraph 17.01 and Paragraph 18.01) in order to establish the overall UEFA Women’s Nations League phase rankings, which will define the starting positions of teams in the Women’s European Qualifiers phase (see Annex C). The order of the teams in the overall phase rankings is based on the overall league rankings, with:
-
teams automatically promoted ranked above teams from lower leagues winning promotion and relegation matches;
-
teams automatically relegated ranked below teams from higher leagues losing promotion and relegation matches.
