Rocket Rush Season 1 Week 9: April 18, 2026 — is the final regular season event. Whatever the standings look like when this bracket concludes, the top six teams advance to the championship and the field is set.
What Closes Out Here
Three weeks of competition (Weeks 7, 8, and 9) will determine the final standings. Teams currently in the bubble between 5th and 8th in the rankings are fighting for the last direct qualification spots. A win in Week 9 is worth the same points as any other week, but it's the last chance to move up.
