Competition Format

Each event will begin with Round Robin (Group Play).  The Round Robin will be followed by Single Elimination finals in each event. Teams will be assigned to pools, observing seeding from prior WPFG.  The size of the pools is determined by the number of teams in the tournament and the number of courts available. If there are 7 or less teams in an event, Group Play alone will determine the winners.

See map below for directions to Birmingham Crossplex Bill Harris Arena from Athletes' Village in Downtown Birmingham.
