Format

Two days, three trophies, twelve places

All three mini-tournaments are played in the same window and follow the same shape: two semi-finals on day one, then the final and the third-place match on day two. Cross-group seeding — Group A against Group D, Group B against Group C — keeps teams that have already met apart for as long as possible.

Knockout matches level after full time go to extra time and, if still level, to a shootout. Every team finishes the season with a definitive position between first and twelfth.
