Format

There are 3 groups of 3 teams in Phase I. Each team plays each other within the group and all teams but the worse 3rd place of all groups will go into the quarter-finals.

Then, the losers and the team who didn't go to the quarter-finals will play a Poule for the 5th to 9th position. If any team played each other before this Poule, they won't be playing again: the results from Phase I will count.

The winners in the quarter-finals keep playing each other in a knockout system until the winner is found. There is also a game for 3rd and 4th place for the losers at the Semi-finals.

Every game lasts for 40 minutes, divided into 2 parts of 20, instead of the usual 50 minutes in some leagues.
