SCHEDULE
With
Sri Lanka's late inclusion in the tournament, the draw had to be drastically
revamped after it had already been distributed to all participating
nations. The draw published here supercedes all previous versions.
Qualifying
Rounds.
This draw has every team playing every other team in its
division twice.
This means each of the Women and Under 19 Boys and Girls teams will
play 4 games before the finals.
For the Over 35 Men however, it's a slightly different story: with 5
teams competing in this division, and each team playing each other twice,
each Men's team will play 8 games before the finals. This adds another
dimension to the Men's competition--the effective rotation of players
through this gruelling schedule could ultimately be a major factor in
the overall results.
Finals Format.
The finals format for all divisions is
the same: the team that finishes the qualifying rounds in first place
goes straight into the Grand Final. The second and third team (after
qualifying rounds) play each other in the Semi-Final, the winner going
through to the Grand Final.
While this means each of the Womens and
Under 19 teams will at least make the semi-finals regardless of how
they fare in the qualifying rounds, once again it's a different story
for the Over 35 Men. Two teams in that division will not make the finals.
