Format

All teams are divided into 4 pools. Robin round to classify ranking. Top 2 teams advance to top 8, split to Pool E (for teams from Pools A and C) and Pool F (for teams from Pools B and D). After that, teams will play cross matches to determine the best two teams from Pools E and F to qualify for the 1-4 semifinals, with teams finishing third and fourth places in each pool relegated to Classification Round for ranking 5-8.

The lower-ranked teams finishing third in Pools A, C and D and fourth in Pool C will next play a single round-robin competition. Teams which have already met in the pool round-robin preliminaries will not play again, but their results in the pool play will be taken into consideration for ranking 9-12.[3]
