Competition rules and information
The top six teams from 2014 – Western Province, Golden Lions, Sharks, Blue Bulls, Free State Cheetahs and Pumas – were guaranteed participation in the 2015 Currie Cup Premier Division, as is the 'anchor' side Eastern Province Kings.[1]
2014 Currie Cup Premier Division side Griquas, by virtue of finishing outside the top six in the Premier Division, as well as the teams from the 2014 Currie Cup First Division – the Leopards, Griffons, SWD Eagles, Falcons, Boland Cavaliers and Border Bulldogs – played in a qualifying tournament, with the winner qualifying to the 2015 Currie Cup Premier Division.[2]
The seven teams played each other once over the course of the qualification, 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 team qualified for the 2015 Currie Cup Premier Division, while the other six teams qualified for the 2015 Currie Cup First Division.
In November 2014, the Kenya RFU revealed that they were in negotiations with SARU to enter a team in the competition.[3] However, they withdrew from the 2015 Vodacom Cup due to financial considerations and were not included in the Currie Cup fixtures when those were released.

gollark: I worry that if it becomes too intelligent a Spirit bot will try to overthrow its creators. Which can definitely happen.
gollark: Is this just a Markov chain or something? How much training data do you have?
gollark: zstd works almost that well in much less time. That seems better for logfile compression.
gollark: I know, I have to press something like four buttons on my calculator every time I need to switch.
gollark: Elimination of air resistance from calculations, no (well, less) need for expensive vacuum pumps in much scientific research, much easier and cheaper astronomy, no extreme weather, completely fixing global warming, no children asking why the sky is blue, no fires, much less corrosion of metal stuff...
