Saint Petersburg hosted the event for the third time, with all matches being held in a single venue (Saint Petersburg Sports and Concert Complex). For this edition of the tournament the format of the competition has changed dramatically. Most importantly, all participating nations were represented by their youth (U20/U21) national teams, rather than by champions of domestic leagues.[1]
Format
- Group stage
Twelve teams were divided into three groups of four. The top two of each group qualified automatically for a play-off along with the two best third placed teams. The other third placed team along with the three bottom participants out of each group proceed to the group which would place its members between the 9th through the 12th places.
- Playoffs
The winners of the quarter finals advanced further into semi-finals, while the other four less fortunate entered play-off for the fifth place. Next the winners of the semi-finals advanced to the final, while the other two participants played for the third place. Simultaneously the winners of the play-off for the fifth place continued to the fifth place match, while the other two played for the seventh place.
