Each team had to submit a squad of 14 players, including a minimum of two goalkeepers (Regulations Article 4.1).[5]
A total of 16 referees were appointed for the tournament.[6]
The top two teams of each group advance to the semi-finals, while the teams in third, fourth and fifth advance to the fifth place, seventh place, and ninth place play-offs respectively. The teams are ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If tied on points, tiebreakers are applied in the following order (Regulations Article 6.2):[5]
