Behind every name there is a player’s world rank valid up to 1st March 2010. Seeding coefficient of club is a sum of world rank of three best players from the squad list.
Tournament Rules
Seeding of clubs is set by seeding coefficient, which is a sum of world rank (valid on 1st March) of three best players from the team’s squad list. If several clubs have the same seeding coefficient then it is decided about their seeding by world ranking of the best player from the team’s squad list. Clubs are distributed into four basic groups by a „snake system“ as it is shown at following tables.
Group A Group B Group C Group D T1 T2 T3 T4 T8 T7 T6 T5 T9 T10 T11 T12 T16 T15 T14 T13 T17 T18 T19 T20 T24 T23 T22 T21 T25 T26 T27 T28 T32 T31 T30 T29
If there is any change of registered squad lists, distribution of clubs into basic groups will be done again. No club can change its squad list after the end of registration in the morning before the tournament. Four players are nominated into every game from each club. They play against all four opponent’s team members once – it means that 16 matches are played during each team match. Any nominated player can be substituted by any substitues during a team match. Only one thing is forbidden – any player cannot play against the same opponent more than once during the same team match. Particular matches can end with a tie, there are no overtimes even in play-off matches. In case of overall tie in the end of some play-off match, additional captain’s match will be held. If there is a tie in the end of the captain‘s match, overtime will be held. If there are only three members of a club prepared for some round of a team match, the fourth match will be lost by forfeit. If there are only two or less members of a club prepared to play, all four matches will be lost by forfeit. If organizers do not select tables, where should be any team match held, selection of games can be done by „home team“. „Away team“ can always select side where all its players will play all four matches. Players from the „home team“ do not change games during the whole team match. Selection of players who will play next round of a team match is done by „home team“ first. Nomination of home team’s players cannot be changed after away team’s line-up is written on the match protocol. Selection of „home“ and „away“ teams during group stage is done by the organizers – all teams should be marked as „home“ and „away“ the same (if possible) number of times. Placement in the final group is used to select „home“ team for play-off and placement matches. If placement in the final group is the same, than seeding into the tournament is used instead - better placed, or seeded team is called „home“. One point is awarded for a win, no point is awarded for a draw to team score from particular team match. Overall team match win is awarded by two points and draw by one point to the group table. Distribution of Registered Clubs into Basic Groups
Basic groups can be changed (for example if any squad list will be changed…)!

Playing System
Clubs will play each other once in basic groups A, B, C and D. The best three clubs from each basic group will promote to two final groups E and F. Group E will consist of three best clubs from basic groups A and D and in group F there will be the best three clubs from groups C and B. Results of mutual matches held in basic groups will be counted also to the final groups - therefore every club will play only three more matches in final group.
Clubs which will be placed on fourth and lower places in basic groups will play in placement groups - in one group there will be all fourth placed clubs, in another all fifth placed clubs etc. The lowest group will contain at least 3 and at max 6 clubs.
Basic Groups
Promotion Rank Group A Group D Group B Group C 1. Final groups 2. 3. Group for 13th place 4. Group for 17th place 5. Group for 21st place 6. Group for 25th place 7. Group for 29th place 8.

Best four clubs from each final group will qualify to the quarterfinal which will be played by system shown at the following schema. Clubs which will be eliminated in the quartefinal will not play for their final placement – it will be decided by placement at final groups (teams with the same placement will be ordered first by number of points, second by score from the final group; if it cannot be decided by this way than seeding to the tournament will be used). There will be a bronze medal game for teams eliminated in the semifinal.
Final Play-off
E1 F1
F4 E4

Teams which will finish at final group at fifth (sixth) place will play placement match for 9th (11th) place against the same placed team from the second final group.
