Format
The tournament was played in two different stages. In the first stage, the eight participants were divided in two groups of four teams each. A single round-robin format was played within each group to determine the teams' group position. The second stage of the tournament consisted of two sets of semifinals to determine the tournament final ranking. The group stage firsts and seconds played the semifinals for 1st to 4th place and group stage thirds and fourths played the 5th to 8th place semifinals. The pairing of the semifinals was made so teams played against the opposite group teams which finished in a different position.Pools composition
