Format

Europe

The round robin format, the best of the three, will be used in groups A, B and D respectively. Each of the group winners will qualify for the second group stage, while the second and third placed teams in each group will go head-to-head to decide the remaining three slots.

The six teams will make up the second group stage (winning group stage) and will operate in the same way as the first group stage. The group winner will earn their place in the top five Grand Finals, while the second and third placed teams will play a decisive role in the top three.

North America

Across the pond in Group C, the format is similar, but four teams will advance to the playoffs, where a double elimination plan will be used.

Here, the first and second placed teams will go head-to-head in the winner's final, while the third and fourth place teams will go head-to-head in the loser's final, where the winner of that match will face the loser in the winner's final to earn their place in the Grand Final.

Schedule:

Groups A and B will play from March 16 to March 25 inclusive, and teams from C and D will play from March 26 to April 4.
