The fast-paced seven-a-side format includes a two-day group-stage round-robin, featuring two groups of four teams. On day three of the tournament, the top two clubs per group will advance to the knockout stage. There will be sixteen matches per tournament, including a third-place match, and of course, a much-anticipated championship match. Each club will play between three and five games in total, depending on the progress of that club through the tournament.
