Play-offs
Only those competitors who participated in one of the semi-finals of the freestyle method feeder national championship but did not qualify for the semi-finals based on their results may participate in the freestyle method feeder national championship playoffs. Entries for the two playoffs can only be made after the semi-finals. A maximum of the top 7 competitors in each playoffs can advance to the semi-finals. A competitor who advances to the semi-finals from the playoffs cannot advance to the semi-finals based on their semi-final results. If a competitor who advances to the playoffs waives their right to compete in the semi-finals, only a competitor from the semi-finals can be called to fill the vacant spot.

The top 40 competitors in the previous year's method feeder ranking list do not have to compete in the semi-finals, they must submit their entries for the semi-finals by February 28, 2025. If someone indicates by this deadline that they do not wish to participate in the semi-finals, the next competitor on the ranking list will be given the opportunity to enter. If any of the competitors who entered by February 28, 2025 withdraw after this time, they can be entered from the semi-finals to fill the vacant spot.
Competitors from the semi-finals will not carry their scores into the semi-finals.
The 120 competitors who advanced from the semi-finals will be joined by the top 40 competitors from the previous year's method feeder rankings, resulting in 160 competitors advancing to the semi-finals of the championship.

In the semi-finals, the top 40 of the previous year's ranking list and the 120 competitors who qualified from the qualifiers will be drawn in a public draw for four different competition tracks, with 40 competitors per competition track, so that the competitors are distributed equally according to their ranking list and qualifying positions. In each semi-final, the top 8 of the previous year's ranking list (2 competitors per sector) will be selected.
The semi-finals will be held on August 28-31, 2025 at the following locations: Kaposvár, Lake Deseda (40 people); Debrecen, Látóképi Reservoir (40 people); Nagykanizsa, Lake Csónakázó (40 people) and Nyírbátor, Lake Szénaréti (40 people).
From the semi-finals, 40 competitors will advance to the finals, where they will take with them their placing numbers from the semi-finals (not their weight lifted). The top 10-10-10-10 competitors from the three locations will advance to the finals.

The final will be held on October 23–26, 2025 in Adács, at the Adács fishing lake. The top 12 players in the ranking list (3 players per sector) will be selected in the final. The final results of the championship include all sector results from the semi-final and the final: the final ranking is based on the four sector placements achieved in the semi-final and the total placement number of the four rounds of the final.
