Draw
Thirty-six teams entered the tournament. As all the teams are unranked, there is no seeding, so all the teams are randomly assigned into 6 groups, with Groups A-C being hosted by Bollonich, and Group D-F hosted by Banija.
Format
Teams played each other team in their group in a single round-robin format. The top two teams from each group, plus the four third-placed teams with the best record, advanced to the single-elimination round of 16 bracket.
Tiebreakers
Group standings were determined in the following order of precedence:
- Points
- Head-to-head points
- Head-to-head goal difference
- Overall goal differential
- Drawing of lots (OOC: RP Bonus)
