All teams are placed in one of four pools consisting of seven teams. All teams within a pool will play all other teams.

If more than one team in a pool finishes with the same number of points, then the position in the pool is decided by:

- Goal difference 

- The mutual result

- The team with the most goals scored                           

If none of the above provide a winner, than 3 penalties (*) are taken.

In all matches where a winner is required, and there is no outright winner in normal play, then penalties (*) will be taken to obtain a winner. There will be no extra time played, except in the final. Here extra time will be 2 x 5 minutes.

* Penalties should be taken by 3 different players, who participated in that game.

If after the first series of penalties there is no winner, then the penalty shootout continue with alternate penalties taken by players who have not already taken a penalty.
