Teams will be awarded three points for a win, one point for a tie and no points for a loss. Group placement will be determined by (in descending order)

The winners of the quarterfinal games will play the semifinals, the third place game and the final in the Upper Bracket. Losing teams will play for places 5-8 in the Mid Bracket.
