Pool system

Pools consist of preferably 4 teams, but may have 3 teams as well. The only reason to go to a 3-team pool would be if the number of teams is not a multiple of four. When 3-team pools are necessary, they should only be used in the minimum, that as many teams as possible should go into 4-team pools. All selection for the pools is done by random draw.

Swiss tournament system

Instructions, and Who-Plays-Who Tables for the Swiss System of Tournament play.    In the Swiss System, there are tables for tournaments made up of 8-38 teams as well as a Play-Off Quadradge where the top 8 teams play for the championship.
